Executive Summary Our team has been instructed to help advise on a business case involving a restaurant, The Mongolian Grill. It’s owner, John Butkus, is contemplating renovations, in hopes of adding capacity and increasing revenue. There are several scenarios that are available to him. One option is to add an extra food bar. The second option is to move the location of the cooking area. He can also implement both options, if he so chooses. Our team has done the appropriate financial calculations, as well as qualitative considerations. Our decision is that Mr. Butkus should choose to implement both options. The additional capacity is definitely needed, and the demand to fill the capacity is also present. We calculated the possible revenue that could be earned under two sections: Low additional demand and High additional Demand. The additional revenue generated in these two scenarios are $42 900 and $31 200, respectively. Also, the in both of these scenarios, the time needed to pay for the cost of the required expansions are less than a year. We have looked at a number of possibilities, both positive and negative, and we feel that this is the best option. There really is no justification to not go through with the changes. They will result in a greater profit, both in the short and long run. Our analysis is included in the following document. Problem The Mongolian Grill is a restaurant with a unique concept. It prides itself on not only delivering good food, but also an original dining experience that leaves customers wanting to come back. The restaurant uses four features to help accomplish this: An entertaining and interactive atmosphere, fresh and healthy food, unlimited quantities, and customer involvement in the meal preparation. The restaurant owner, John Butkus, is looking to finalize the operation decisions for one of his future restaurants, which will be located in Waterloo, Ontario. First, a brief explanation of how the Mongolian Grill restaurant works: Customers that arrive at the restaurant are seated. A member of the serving staff explains the concept to first-time diners, and takes the table’s drink orders. Customers then proceed to the food preparation area. They select the meat and vegetables that they would like from the food bar, and place them in a bowl. Customers then move to the second bar, which contains sauces, oils, and spices.
We could also effect this by improving our efficiency and processing further clients to increase billables. We do have pent up demand, that is as we can see by the trends, growing.

A restaurant’s success is often dependent on its location. Restaurant’s that are located near other restaurants can enough synergistic benefits due to their location (Parsa, Self, Njite, & King, 2005). However, choosing the wrong location can also spell certain doom for the establishment. In general, restauranteurs must ensure that they are making enough profit to justify the demands put forth by their landlord and the local government. For this reason, the restaurant’s deed or rental agreement is one of the most important document in determining a restaurant’s fate. This paper seeks to examine the issues associated with leasing restaurant property; in particular Harlequin and Brine, an upscale casual restaurant.
The restaurant business is a challenging industry and if a company has a strategy that works for them as well as their employees, it should stay the course and tweak as needed.

The reason for raising the price in 2002 was the need to bring the profit per meter up to that of other items on the line. Although the company was in a strong position financially, it would require considerable capital in the next few years to finance a recently approved long-term modernization and expansion program.1

To better their restaurant they have a sale everyday from 2-5 allowing all beverages to be a dollar. ”.They have wonderful food and service. If they make a mistake they fix it without any attitude.

“You don’t need a silver fork to eat good food.” (Prudhomme, Paul) I am not one to criticize exceptional food, especially when it’s Japanese Cuisine. There is one spot that I repeatedly recommend when friends ask, “Where’s the best place to grab extraordinary grade “A” sushi at a reasonable price?” In which I add that’s a no brainer Mr. Sushi. Although, there are two locations in Arizona one off the I-17 and Northern and the other off the I-10 and Pebble Creek Parkway as a matter of fact I have been to both. Despite the location on Pebble Creek being closes to me, I still prefer to drive the extra forty-five minutes to eat at the other location. In other words, if you’re looking for a restaurant that offers great service, an inviting atmosphere, and the best Japanese Cuisine in Arizona, Mr. Sushi off the I-17 and Northern is the place you want to stop and grab a roll.
The cafeteria serves about one hundred and fifty residents of Cambridge Hall and approximately one hundred residents from Nottingham Hall. The cafeteria serves hot foods, salads, snacks, sandwiches, and beverages. The data has given me information on the percentage of customers that preferred a hot meal (interactive and precooked) to snacks, the ratio of customers that prefer precooked hot meals over an interactive hot meal, line formation, service times at the different stations, arrival times and the location of the different stations. I also learned that the peak hours of operations are from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. and that the cafeteria has two cash registers available but only one is being utilized during the peak hours. If customers decide on a hot meal there is a 2 to 1 ratio that customers will purchase a precooked meal over an interactive meal. Through an informal customer survey, reasonable waiting times were established for the precooked line (5 minutes), the interactive line (10 minutes), and the cashier payment line (1minute).
