Restaurant Checklists Use the restaurant checklists as a guide for deciding what should be happening in every area of your restaurant to create the quality products, dining experience and operating results you expect. They will help you get organized and become aware of the essential tasks, procedures and practices that need to be performed in each area of your restaurant.
Business Many independent restaurants are not good businesses. While they may have great food and service, they struggle financially and don’t provide a quality lifestyle for their owners. Knowing how to run a restaurant isn’t enough, improve your financial skills to control costs, manage profit margins and make sound business decisions.
Modify each checklist to reflect your own specific procedures, practices and systems. Then use the checklists to periodically review your operation to determine whether the tasks are being performed correctly, consistent with the procedures and practices you've established.

Each checklist is downloaded as a Microsoft Word® Document (.docx) file and can easily be modified to reflect your own unique operating standards and practices.
