As an avid foodie, I am constantly searching for attractive restaurants to satisfy my cravings and curiosity. My food is my adventure, I like to try new dishes but above all I like to enjoy them in a satisfying environment with a friendly atmosphere. So in this article, my goal is to get the message across to restaurant owners or prospective owners about what makes an environment attractive to diners.

1. Cleanliness: I mention this first because it is the most important thing. Good hygiene in areas where food is prepared and served is a definite must. From the actual food to the dishes and the table, everything must be clean at all times. At the first sign of a dirty fork, he assured that he has inconvenienced his client.

2. Be creative: Original themes and decor are one of the biggest draws in the restaurant business, often more so than the food served. Give a lot of thought to how your restaurant is decorated and research color schemes and elements that would make your target audience feel relaxed and inspired.

3. Be original: From the dishes you serve to the sanitary facilities, think outside the box! Customers will always remember a uniquely presented dish or the accessories and displays on offer. Even the way the condiments are displayed on the table can impress someone! I love moose restaurants!

4. Environment: this is the key. Use candles or dim lighting to provide a romantic or calm setting for dinner parties. If it’s a beautiful day outside, open the windows and let the sunlight in. Classical music in the background always lights up a relaxing atmosphere.

5. Service: yes, good old fashioned service. Make sure your staff is presentable, clear-spoken and friendly. Not only do they guarantee a great tip, but they are the perfect ambassadors for your restaurant. I know many people who return to restaurants to be served by a certain waiter. I understand that, as with most things, mistakes happen, but do your best not to make them when ordering correctly and implementing other restaurant processes, and if you do, make it up to the customer.

All of these concepts may seem obvious, but you’d be surprised at some of the ignorant restaurants I’ve come across. Make an effort and your customers will make an effort to join you for a meal. All the points I listed are important and necessary, but if you want to go the extra mile, I suggest you think a lot about the originality of your restaurant.
