We all know that restaurants play a significant role in our lives. The food, the ambiance, and the atmosphere are all major components that make a successful restaurant. However, it is important to know how to resonate with your customers through your branding and the type of service you intend to provide. Cafes, fast food chains, and independent restaurants: the design, floor plan, and furnishing all contribute to the success of the eatery as much as the food it serves. The best restaurant contractors on this list have the experience to provide an array of services that include new construction, tenant improvements, and remodels.
The editors created this list of the top five restaurant contractors after looking into their experience, portfolio, and accolades.

In addition to working for these clients, the firm has made the top 15 list for Northern California Commercial General Contractors while receiving the 2020 AIA San Mateo County Design Award.
