What Does The Grand Opening Mean?

Restaurant businesses usually have an effort to accept guests as soon as possible after the small opening. For this, the feedbacks are examined every day and the results of the survey are taken into consideration with great anticipation. The testing of the kitchen and service units is over, time has passed since the last controls, and both the kitchen and service personnel have demonstrated what they can withstand by living their final limits.

Although the first guests who came to the restaurant were disappointed in the small opening period, the 4 or 8 week trials, overtime, tough conditions, high work limits and temporary malfunctions in the systems are now over.

One of my favorite programs in my international gastronomy consultancy is to perform the grand opening after the small opening.

Although the word grand opening is used in many different businesses, it generally has a different meaning in restaurant businesses.

In Turkey, you can see this habit in brand restaurants or restaurants opened as a result of professional approaches. But when we take into account the 2022 world restaurant trends, I believe that we will encounter big openings more frequently from now on.

When İs The Grand Opening?

Restaurant management has adopted this system in order to be among the Best Restaurants in the City and to be a Permanent Restaurant Owner in the city, in order to raise their positive thinking about themselves and their service quality. After the grand opening, there is no room for error in restaurant businesses.

-yes it can't be my fault, I already did the small opening and now I'm doing my grand opening. In order to be able to say this more easily in terms of guest satisfaction, grand opening words are included in restaurant promotions and people trust this restaurant and come with their guests. In addition, at the entrance of the restaurant or in a place where guests can see it, provided that it is not too exaggerated, it is ensured that it is visible by hanging a 1 meter by 30 cm banner or placing a billboard at the entrance.

So How Long Will The Grand Opening Last?

In line with the decisions of the professional restaurant management, a maximum of 1 week is sufficient. Since part-time personnel generally work during the fast hours of work in Europe and America, novice personnel are not allowed to work, especially in high-end restaurants, after the grand opening, and some training documents are requested from normal personnel, and they are recruited or not hired according to their grades.

What Are The İssues That Restaurant Businesses Should Pay Attention To After The Grand Opening?

• The silence of the service personnel,
• Clear, short and professional answers to the guest,
• The most flexible applications for guest demands,
• Sound system during the meal in the restaurant,
• Closing the conversations with music so that they do not go to the second table,
• Lighting according to the concept of the restaurant,
• Meals are perfect as indicated on the menu or in the images,
• Never saying "no" to the dishes mentioned in the menu,
• In the kitchen or in the service bar A product code that ends is “86”.
• Notifying the finished products immediately to the relevant personnel as “86”,
• The order of the meals, the serving times and the chef's visit to the table and getting feedback,
• The variety of garnishes served with the meals and the preference of the guests,
• Pricing policies do not change in a short time,
• Small sweets or different treats to the guest when they leave the restaurant,
• Visible hygiene conditions in the restaurant,
• Towels, napkins and ventilation quality along with the cleanliness of the toilets,
• The minimum level of noise in the lounge area during the service,
• The order and temperature of the dishes and the conditions of their being brought to the table,
• Appropriate and professional behavior according to restaurant concept types,

Then, to take the feedback under control and to carry it to higher levels at a positive rate. One of the greatest achievements is to keep the existing service quality and standards at the same level for a certain period of time.

In order not to make the Most Common Mistakes While Opening a New Restaurant, it is necessary not to forget the saying "It is not important to be big, it is important to stay big" and not to make your staff forget. You should always keep the Restaurant Budget under control so that the temporary drunkenness of success does not lead you to bigger mistakes.
