A combination of delicious food and high-quality service will keep your customers coming back and recommending your restaurant to others. However, the design of your establishment also helps create a dining experience that attracts visitors, especially when you’re catering to an upscale crowd. If you’ve partnered with a commercial construction management team to build your new high-end restaurant, below are some tips to help you get started with your project. 

3 Design Ideas for High-End Restaurants

1. Create Cohesion

If you can convey your brand's personality effectively, your target consumers will be able to relate to it and want to visit. Moreover, having a cohesive theme will distinguish your establishment from your competitors.

For creating a theme, consistency is key. Your branding should influence all of your decisions, including your interior design colors, your staff's suits, furniture, and choice of tableware. For example, you could pick a decade in history or the country of your foreign cuisine. 

2. Pay Attention to Restrooms

Your customers will associate your washrooms with your restaurant's service and quality. This is especially true for high-end establishments.

Be sure to have yours designed to reflect your brand's personality. For example, if your restaurant is themed after the 50s, include brushed or copper finishes for an antique, elegant appearance. If your establishment is contemporary and you serve New American food, sleek, silver fixtures will fit in. 

3. Plan Your Table & Seat Arrangements

A good restaurant balances ambiance with seating placement. Adding more tables will increase your profits, but you want to leave enough space for comfort.

As a safety measure, make sure to adhere to the maximum capacity of your building. Also, minimize "bad tables," which exist in areas customers avoid, including near restrooms, the kitchen, and any drafty doors. Your commercial construction management team will help you maximize your use of the space efficiently.
