Restaurant Accounting Services

Clients & Testimonials

Many restaurants are already using RAS to enable them to grow their businesses.

Below we present some of the feedback we've had from clients:

A.K Diamond's

"On my list of smart things I've done in my entire career, working with Restaurant Accounting Services is number one. RAS is much more than an accounting or payroll service. They know the industry and understand what I need. Plus they're very adaptable to what I want as opposed to other restaurants, offering customized reports and insight. When we've applied for bank loans or lines of credit, paperwork is always prepared and presented perfectly, in line with what the bank wants to see. All the worries that go with that end of the business are gone. I highly recommend Restaurant Accounting Services to others, and do so at every opportunity I get. "
Richard Diamond, Owner

Amari Bar and Ristorante

"I sold my produce business in Boston to enter the restaurant business for the first time and fortunately I have had RAS at the accounting helm from the start. They provide to me every week the information tools needed to stay on top of my numbers without dealing with the bookkeepers, payroll companies and after the fact alternatives. Most importantly RAS is an outsourced service with expertise and confidentiality. "
Craig Austin, Owner

Ardeo Mediterranean Taverna

"Working with RAS as opposed to a routine bookkeeper and accountant is like night and day. Accountants like to think in months, but running a restaurant is meticulous; we think in days. Working on a day-to-day basis. it's a nightmare to monitor everything and stay on top of it all - form payroll to taxes and overtime pay. Instead of working with three separate entities - an accountant, a payroll service and a lawyer - RAS offers it all in one package. RAS knows the restaurant industry from the numbers side and by having them as part of the team I am able to get out of the office and run my four restaurants by staying on top of the numbers at all times."
Joe Jamiel, Owner

Captain Parker's

"In the restaurant business, you can get in trouble really fast. That's the beauty of receiving weekly and monthly reports. They let you know where you are and where you should be - fast. It's like a road map, making sure percentages are in line at all times. Plus, RAS is extremely prompt and efficient. If there's ever a problem, they're quick to solve it. They make the restauranteur's job a lot easier because you have a team standing behind you assisting with day-to-day situations. So you can use your time much more efficiently."

Island Grill

"We are extremely pleased with the accounting and payroll services RAS has provided us since 2004. Their performance, approach and industry knowledge has been exceptional and we contribute a big portion of our success to RAS in providing us with accurate and timely reports. Their knowledge of the restaurant industry and the unique accounting associated with it has been invaluable to us. "
Mike Russell, Owner

Kitty O'Shea's Bars & Restaurants

"In the restaurant business, you're faced with tough times and challenges to overcome. RAS has been through it all with us and thanks to them we continue to focus on our operations and profitability by leaving the day to day bookkeeping and number crunching to RAS. "
Artie Lucas, General Manager

Sea Grille

"I was the very first account on Nantucket to utilize RAS. Through the years their support and wealth of financial information has contributed greatly to our growth and ability to own and operate now multiple restaurant businesses. Although RAS has many other accounts now, we are still serviced like we are the very first one."
E.J Harvey, Chef/Owner

The Atlantic Cafe

"With RAS I have total peace of mind with my bookkeeping and financial information all year long."
John O'Conner, Owner

The Seafood Shanty

"I have a short season lasting just three months. So each week is crucial. A bookkeeper can tell you where you stand when it's already too late. But RAS gives me the insight and tools, so I can jump in and correct things mid-stream. They've helped me turn otherwise disaster seasons into a complete success. I can't say enough about them. They're always accessible, easy to work with and there when you need them. I wouldn't work with anyone else - period."
Scott Page, Owner/Partner
