Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At the special meeting of stockholders (the "Special Meeting") of Landry’s Restaurants, Inc. (the "Company") held on October 4, 2010, holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock approved the proposal to approve and adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 3, 2009, as amended on May 23, 2010 and June 20, 2010 (the "Merger Agreement"), among the Company, Fertitta Group, Inc. ("Parent"), Fertitta Merger Co. ("Merger Sub") and, for certain limited purposes, Tilman J. Fertitta ("Fertitta"). The vote tabulation is set forth below:

For
13,662,123

Against
45,117

Abstain
6,079

In addition, the Merger Agreement was approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock not owned by Parent, Merger Sub, Fertitta and the other defendants named in the lawsuit entitled Louisiana Municipal Police Employees’ Retirement System, on behalf of itself and all other similarly situated shareholders of Landry’s Restaurants, Inc. and derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Landry’s Restaurants, Inc. v. Tilman J. Fertitta, et al., C.A. No. 4339-VCL, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or any of their respective affiliates and voted at the Special Meeting (the "Majority of the Minority Approval"). The vote tabulation for purposes of the Majority of the Minority Approval is set forth below:

For
4,788,209

Against
24,876

Abstain
6,079

In connection with the Special Meeting, the Company also solicited proxies with respect to a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting to a later date, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies if there were insufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Merger Agreement. The adjournment proposal, which was unnecessary in light of the approval of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders as indicated above, was not submitted to the Company’s stockholders for approval at the Special Meeting.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On October 4, 2010, the Company issued a press release announcing the results of the Special Meeting. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
