About this listen

Let’s start your restaurant legacy right now, right here!

National chains and single independent restaurants all started with an individual and an idea. A concept. A dream.

Small ideas can grow into big business. Who would have thought that a guy with a milkshake machine could start a hamburger empire? A pizza made in a garage would start today’s pizza wars? A guy with a pressure-cooker would start a fried chicken phenomena?

Business ownership has always been part of the all-American dream. Restaurants are the largest entrepreneurial opportunity in America for starting the dream.

According to Restaraunt.org, the industry stands as follows:

  • $799 billion: Restaurant industry sales.
  • 1 million+: Restaurant locations in the United States.
  • 14.7 million: Restaurant industry employees.
  • 1.6 million: New restaurant jobs created by the year 2027.
  • 10%: Restaurant workforce as part of the overall U.S. workforce.
  • 9 in 10: Restaurant managers who started at entry level.
  • 8 in 10: Restaurant owners who started their industry careers in entry-level positions.
  • 9 in 10: Restaurants with fewer than 50 employees.
  • 7 in 10: Restaurants that are single-unit operations.

In this book, you will realize why your concept and theme are critical. Factors to include in a business plan. How to start your restaurant, how to grow and how to be successful. It is a detail guide that will guide you through the process.

I'm from the UK so some things didn't apply but nonetheless reconfirmed some things and gave me some ideas of others

very good book on running a restaurant

It doesn’t necessarily go into great detail, but it covers all of the essential areas that will need attention. It’s one of many books I’m reading before I start up.

Definitely worth reading!

This book has some good advice, what's stopping me from giving it 5 stars is that some of the rules are only for people living in US.

Having said that it is a very good book to get you started. Gets you thinking in the most important parts of starting a restaurant

I personally got ths most value at the end of the book where he talks about marketing, pricing strategy and menu
