How Resto works
Resto replaces cold outreach with warm, trusted introductions inside a restaurant-only professional network.
What is Resto?
The professional network for the restaurant industry — a trusted directory of operators, chefs, investors, vendors, consultants, and recruiters, built to make warm introductions between the right people.
How do I join?
Add yourself to the directory in about 30 seconds: your name, work email, LinkedIn, and company website. These help us verify who members actually are and keep the network trusted.
What does it cost?
Free to join for restaurant operators, chefs, and job seekers. A paid membership ($99/month) is planned for recruiters and heavy network users who want to actively source connections.
How do introductions work?
Every introduction is double opt-in — both people have to say yes before an intro is made. No cold outreach, no spam. That keeps the quality and trust of the network high.
Who is it for?
Operators, chefs and culinary directors, investors, food-tech founders, distributors and suppliers, consultants, recruiters, and job seekers. If you work in restaurants, there's someone here worth meeting.
What stage is this?
We're building the founding directory now, seeding it with high-quality members across the industry. Join early to be a founding member as the first introductions go out.
