TNI Restaurant Consultants

The Next Idea starts here.

Based in Los Angeles, TNI Restaurant Consultants operates at the intersection of creativity, culture, and commercial success. We don’t follow trends, we identify them, shape them, and turn them into high-performing restaurant and entertainment concepts. From bold concept creation and brand strategy to operations, franchising, and design, TNI is where vision becomes velocity.

What truly sets TNI apart is our obsession with the end user. Every decision we make begins with the guest experience and extends through operations, financial performance, and brand expression. We design restaurants from the inside out, where flawless flow, compelling storytelling, and strong margins coexist. Our global perspective allows us to curate the most forward-thinking food and hospitality ideas from around the world, then refine them to fit local demographics, culture, and market realities.

With 89+ original concepts launched and 950+ restaurants and cafés remodeled or built, our partners and consultants bring rare depth to the table. We’ve collaborated with world-class chefs, luxury hospitality groups, entertainment brands, resorts, and fast-casual innovators, always balancing fearless creativity with operational discipline.

At TNI, differentiation isn’t optional, it’s everything. Whether you’re launching a disruptive new restaurant, scaling through franchising, reimagining your menu, or amplifying your brand, we specialize in making you impossible to ignore. Our consulting services and proprietary tools are designed to elevate excitement, increase frequency, and unlock new revenue streams.

If you’re serious about growth, relevance, and long-term success in the restaurant industry, TNI is your catalyst. Our expertise in concept development, business planning, and financial strategy is matched only by our passion for food, design, and what’s coming next, always with the bottom line in focus.

In an industry where sameness kills and originality wins, the question isn’t why TNI.
It’s where will you be without The Next Idea?
