Accurate, efficient, and compliant financial management for restaurants, cafés, and hospitality groups.

Financial Clarity That Keeps Your Kitchen Running Smoothly

Between food costs, payroll, vendor payments, and daily sales reconciliation, running a restaurant is already a balancing act. Add accounting to the mix, and even the most seasoned restaurateurs can feel overwhelmed.

At Remote Quality Bookkeeping (RQB), we specialize in restaurant accounting and bookkeeping services for restaurants that simplify your financial operations. With over 20 years of experience helping small businesses and franchises nationwide, we understand exactly how to address the unique financial demands of the food service industry.

From tracking daily sales and managing vendor invoices to integrating your POS data into QuickBooks, our restaurant bookkeeping experts ensure your numbers are always accurate, up-to-date, and compliant so you can focus on guests, not spreadsheets.

The Cost of Poor Restaurant Bookkeeping

Restaurants operate on razor-thin margins. Without proper bookkeeping systems and financial controls, even minor mistakes can quickly erode profits and cause cash flow issues.

Inventory & Food Cost Confusion

Inaccurate tracking of food and beverage purchases can hide waste, theft, or over-ordering—cutting deep into your margins.

Payroll & Tip Reporting Errors

Mishandled payroll and tip allocation can lead to employee dissatisfaction and non-compliance with IRS or labor regulations.

Vendor & Supplier Mismanagement

When invoices pile up or aren’t properly recorded, it’s easy to lose track of payments, damage supplier relationships, or miss early payment discounts.

Unclear Financial Performance

Without reliable financial statements, it’s difficult to understand which menu items, locations, or shifts are truly profitable.

Compliance Risks

Restaurants must manage complex sales tax, tip reporting, and payroll regulations. Mistakes can result in audits, penalties, and reputational damage.
