Making Data-Driven Decisions

Case Study: Optimizing Weekend Service

One restaurant owner noticed through analytics that Saturday dinner service had a 23-minute average ticket time—far above their 15-minute target. By drilling into the data, they discovered:

A bottleneck at the grill station
Two popular items requiring the same equipment
Peak orders concentrated in a 45-minute window

The solution? They staggered special promotions and added a temporary prep station during peak hours, reducing ticket times to 16 minutes and increasing table turnover by 18%.
