Steak Restaurant Business Plan

The following plan is based on years of experience, is highly focused and promises to follow a path of prosperity for its investors, owners, managers and staff. It is based on conservative sales figures, and actual sales may be higher. The projections contained herein are authentic and will be used as the budget for the business. The Fire Fountain Grille^® will show a profit immediately, and will increase sales and profits each year thereafter.

The Fire Fountain Grille is a comfortable, inviting restaurant designed to make our customers feel as if they are enjoying VIP services in a world all to themselves. The decor and theme is based on an exterior fountain located at the main entrance that has a cascading water fountain combined with flame throwing torches. The show kitchen will also feature a custom made “Fire Fountain”, a unique show kitchen grill that also has a cascading water fountain combined with flame throwing torches. This spectacular marvel will be visible from the dining room side, and will be a functioning 48″ gas powered steak grill on the kitchen side. The energy and atmosphere of the restaurant is high, and draws some of its power from the dazzling “Fire Fountain”. By offering an exciting, tantalizing and rewarding experience for its customers, the Fire Fountain Grille and its service oriented approach will be immediately embraced by those that love dining out!
