What I Learned From Owning My Own Restaurant After 1 Year
What I Learned From Owning My Own Restaurant After 1 Year
My restaurant has been open for over a year now. I thought I’d give you an update on what it’s been like and how I managed to survive in the restaurant business despite many obstacles and being in one of the hardest businesses to open.
It has not been easy and I’m sure there will be more interesting things that will happen in this business that will force me to question why I got into this in the first place, but it’s been worth it (I think). Here is my advice for those looking to open their own restaurant.

Any one ones Who this is?
This guy ended up closing his restaurant and basically spends his time coming up with excuses, very opposite of his attitude in this video.
I gotta start saving then cause I don’t have the money to just go sign a lease and then order a bunch of materials like that. But ima keep pushing.
Yo, sir excuse me…any beach food that’s fast you recommend, maybe something for wine
This is quite demotivating; I understand you trying to be honest and state the facts, but try to sound positive and opportunistic as well. Quite depressing
You must of just had money sitting around
Interesting… if you’re thinking about starting your own bar check out the buildabarapp its an easy to design your own bar.
I refuse to eat in a restaurant with metal or plastic chairs, I need a soft cushy chair and vibe music in the background. Listening to clattering plates is a turn off
I love your mindset.. take the leap!!!
Hiw did you manage with getting permits and drawing the plan for your restaurant for building approval? Did you get a buildout restaurant or you built from the scratch?Please help, I’m stuck.
Omg shocking!
I said the same thing to about jumping in head first.Dont plan just jump in and do it and deal with what ever comes along on the way especially if you know yourself.I know am afraid to take risk and to JUMP!! This is amazing insite glad to know am not alone.

I agree, you have to treat the customer with curtise and a smile. I would love for you to give me an idea in the long run about business resturant and paying the workers their income.
Best advice from the video… NOBODY is gonna have the same level of love and passion of your vision or business as much as you do
1st off you got to have start up Capital that’s really all that’s holding a lot of people back

Question: Is it customary for a LL to want a resume/Bio and want a face to face sit down interview before accepting your LOI or lease terms?
