Restaurant accounting is not just a job for them - it’s a passion. They are professional, reliable, and always available for help or guidance. Their spreadsheets and reports are easy to read and honestly, I sleep better at night knowing we have them on our team.”

Accounting for restaurants
"I found Bistro Accounting when I went looking for a bookkeeper who specializes in restaurants and I'm so glad I did. They had experience with our full tech stack and were able to fully integrate their accounting software with it. Now I'm able to see my numbers in real time and can make quick, informed decisions in the moment. No longer do we learn about a problem weeks after it happened. We're finally being proactive about problems, instead of reactive. This has been instrumental in getting control of our numbers and managing the business and I'd recommend them to anyone who owns a restaurant."
