Restaurant accounting that helps you keep the lights on – and the lights bright.
Bookkeeping, payroll, sales tax, and tax planning for Georgia restaurants, food trucks, breweries, and small hospitality groups.
We know restaurant margins are tight
Restaurants live and die by a handful of numbers — food cost percentage, labor percentage, occupancy cost, and prime cost. If you can’t see those weekly, you’re flying blind. We help Georgia restaurants get the numbers visible and useful, not just clean.

How often should I be closing the books?
Weekly for the operating numbers (food cost, labor cost, sales) and monthly for the full close. Most restaurants try to live on monthly numbers, which is too slow to fix problems before they cost real money.
