At Mateo Monti Consulting, we're driven by a deep passion for helping restaurant owners thrive. With over a decade of hands-on experience in owning and operating diverse restaurant concepts, we truly understand the unique challenges and opportunities the industry presents. Our founder, a seasoned chef with expertise spanning fine dining, Italian, Cuban, BBQ, American diner classics, charcuterie, catering, global cuisine, and pub staples, brings a wealth of knowledge and a fresh perspective to every project. Our mission is simple: to empower our clients to unlock their full potential and build successful, thriving restaurants.

Following a 20-year career in the film industry, our founder transitioned into the restaurant world, launching seven unique concepts—each crafted by his own two hands. From building black walnut tables to designing and personally building copper penny bar tops, he was intimately involved in every detail of the process, blending creativity with craftsmanship to bring each vision to life.

Let’s face it—managing the maze of paperwork, permits, and licenses when starting a restaurant can be overwhelming. We’ve been in your shoes, without guidance, navigating those same hurdles. Now, we’re here to be your trusted partner and coach, helping you set up your business the right way from the start.

When it comes to operations, we’ve developed innovative systems and strategies that have saved our clients tens of thousands of dollars annually. It all begins with choosing the right POS system and implementing service plans designed to maximize profitability for you, the owner.
