Winston's Restaurant was named in honour of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
Winston's began as a hamburger stand, sharing space with an army surplus store.
Oscar Berceller upgraded the restaurant to a first-class establishment after the Second World War.
Between 1962 and 1966, the restaurant was owned by the corporation 'Winston Theatre Grill (1962)'
