Questions, answered

How long does it take to set up a restaurant?

Usually three to six months from concept to opening night, depending on the site, the size and the approvals.

How much does a restaurant setup consultant cost?

Fees depend on the scope, from a single stage to a full setup. Send us a brief and we will share a clear quotation. Our free restaurant budget calculator helps you plan the setup cost itself.

Do you design or build the interiors?

No. We plan the kitchen layout, equipment and MEP and work alongside your architect, interior designer and contractors, who design and build the space.

Can you help with a restaurant outside Mumbai?

Yes. We set up restaurants across India and abroad, with site visits, food trials, training and launch support wherever your kitchen is.
