Third, the restaurant decoration, design and equipment planning

The decoration style of the restaurant and the atmosphere of the store are important factors to attract customers. By shaping the image and personality of the restaurant, the influence and competitiveness of the restaurant can be enhanced.

1, functional zoning and overall planning of facilities

The interior space of a storefront is generally divided into three parts, namely, the dining room, including dining table, aisle, bar, cashier and so on. Kitchen: including kitchen, cold dish room, pastry room, etc. Auxiliary area: including office, finance room, warehouse, toilet, etc. According to the regulations of relevant administrative departments, the distribution ratio of these three regions should be 1: 1: 1. However, considering that the profit of restaurants is ultimately realized by the business area, operators always try their best to expand the business area.

2. Principles to be grasped during decoration.

① Moderate but not excessive decoration: Some restaurants use a lot of the most popular decoration materials and structures at home and abroad, hoping to attract customers with fashion, and spend a lot of money, but the actual effect may not be ideal.

② Unity with management characteristics: The marketing strategy of small and medium-sized restaurants should focus on highlighting characteristics.

③ Consistency with customer requirements: customers are divided into specific social groups, and each social group has obvious consistency in environmental requirements because of its basically consistent social and cultural background such as region, culture and stratum.

(4) Highlight humanized restaurant: The personality of decoration is easy for customers to distinguish and establish word of mouth, but the overly flamboyant personality may backfire and make some customers flinch. Therefore, it is always moderate to highlight personality.

On the basis of grasping the above principles, various schemes should be compared and modified in decoration design to determine a reasonable implementation scheme.

The exterior design of restaurant mainly refers to the design and decoration of restaurant facade.

The design of restaurant facade is directly related to the attraction to customers. Attracting customers is the premise of creating the economic benefits of restaurants, so the external design of restaurants is particularly important. The design should not only consider people's universal values and aesthetics, but also reflect certain cultural connotations, so as to meet the various needs of people at different levels for food culture. Therefore, the appearance design of the restaurant should be eye-catching and distinctive, so that consumers can easily distinguish it.

In addition, an excellent menu must also be able to show the restaurant's management style, attract customers' attention by using design skills such as colors and patterns, and become a part of the overall marketing strategy.

Before starting to draw up the menu, restaurant operators should first consider their own conditions, food characteristics, restaurant characteristics, environment and other factors, and cooperate with their own unique style to gradually draw up the most suitable menu for restaurant management.

(2) Menu pricing

Menu pricing should consider the competition of peers, various services and the scale and grade of restaurants.

2. Service quality management

Waiters should not only provide catering services to guests, but also sell catering food to guests. Service quality is the lifeline of the restaurant. If you are not careful, the restaurant will fall into a vicious circle. Therefore, service quality management is particularly important in operation, which must run through the whole process, all-round and all-staff. The purpose of catering service quality control is to make every work in the restaurant revolve around the principle of "service first".
