"I was killing myself 80 hours a week and bleeding cash. PlateMath pointed out that my signature steak was actually losing me $2 a plate after labor. We fixed it the next day."

You don't need to pay a consultant $300 an hour to find out why you're losing money. Get honest, actionable operational advice based on twenty years of hard-won restaurant experience: instantly.

Twenty years. Five restaurants. Two near-failures that taught me everything. The Plate Math methodology isn't born from a passion for plating beautiful food - it is born from the absolute necessity of surviving the margins.
I built this toolset because I was exhausted. Exhausted by bleeding cash on a Tuesday night. Exhausted by guessing my prime costs. And completely done with $300/hr consultants who had never actually worked a Friday night rush telling me to 'trim the fat.'
Finds hidden losses on your plate. Stop selling your best items at a deficit and start engineering a menu that actually makes money.
Optimizes your schedule against actual sales data. Stop paying for extra bodies on the floor when the dining room is dead.
Guides necessary menu price increases with precision, ensuring you protect your margins without triggering a customer revolt.
On-demand operational coaching. Ask the hard questions about vendors, staff, and strategy, and get a straight, honest answer.
You can't fix what you can't see. We strip away the noise and give you the exact numbers driving your margins down. No more hoping the bank account looks okay on Friday.


Fire underperforming vendors. Pull the plug on the $16 burger that costs you $14 to make. We give you the undeniable data to make the cuts you’ve been avoiding.
You don't need a consultant telling you to work harder. You need an operational partner available at 11 PM on a Tuesday when the numbers simply don't make sense.

★★★★★
I thought we were just slow on Tuesdays. PlateMath showed me I was overstaffed by two bodies every shift. Cut the hours, didn't affect service, and put $1,200/mo back in my pocket.

We were bleeding cash in prep. Turns out our yield on prime cuts was terrible. PlateMath flagged the variance, we retrained the kitchen, and food cost dropped 3% in two weeks.

Bistro Operator
★★★★★
The cafe was packed every weekend, but the bank account was empty. PlateMath forced me to look at my margins. Re-priced the menu based on the data, and we're finally profitable.
