Who We Are

Our Story

For over 40 years, Restaurant Services Inc. has been trusted by forward-thinking hospitality brands. These clients turn to us because of our transparent processes, lean organization, and our dedication to innovation. We believe no problem is impossible and have developed solutions that are helping to define the future of our industry.

Our operations are vertically-integrated, meaning every aspect of the commercial kitchen & bar development process occurs within our walls. These touchpoints include:

  • Custom Design
  • Fabrication
  • Assembly
  • Buyout Procurement
  • Quality Control
  • Delivery
  • Installation

Beyond vertical integration and reliable service, restaurant brands across the country trust RSI because of the unique way we view the kitchen: as a factory. Just like our own operation, we strive to create commercial kitchens that not only inspire quality but are efficient, ergonomic, not wasteful, and provide cost control.

The foundation of an enduring, iconic restaurant concept is a kitchen that balances innovative features with factory-like function. That’s the type of commercial kitchen we create at RSI.
