Almost every independent menu has one — a plate that sells well, feels like a winner, and loses money on every order because costs crept up and nobody re-did the math. We'll find yours. Free, in 24 hours, using current supplier prices. Nothing to install, no commitment.
I spent nine years running a small restaurant. We had a lamb special every Saturday — it packed the room, it was everyone's favorite, mine included.
Two years in, I finally sat down and did the real math. Lamb had crept up 28%, I'd never re-priced it, and my best dish had been losing money on every plate the whole time. Nobody told the kitchen — because nobody could see it.
That's the whole reason Mise exists. Not to sell you software — to hand you the number you can't see until the year-end statement makes it too late. This free audit is us showing you, on one of your own dishes, exactly what we mean.
The dish you think is a star. The dish you've been overlooking. The dish that flipped on you without anyone noticing.
Premium price, top of the mains section, sells well. After labor and overhead, this dish loses money on every plate. The more it sells, the worse the math gets.
Sits mid-menu, gets no special treatment, gets no marketing push. This is the dish paying the rent. Most operators have no idea.
Was profitable six months ago. Mozzarella supplier prices jumped, food cost is now 42%. Same recipe, same menu price — but the dish flipped from profitable to losing money. Nobody told the kitchen.
Restaurant name, your name, and how to reach you — email, phone, or both. Takes 30 seconds.
By phone or email, however you preferred. Three minutes — ingredients, rough portions, what you charge.
Within 24 hours. What the dish actually costs, what your real margin is, and where the money's hiding.
The big restaurant platforms run $400 to $700 a month and pile on inventory systems, scheduling, vendor portals, dashboards on dashboards — tools that need a full-time manager to run, and that most owners barely open. We went the other way.
We'd rather nail the one number that keeps your doors open than sell you a dashboard you'll never log into.
$19.99 a month, and your first month is free — no card to start. Build your menu yourself for free, or have us do it for you, one time, for $19.99. Same product either way.
No contract. Cancel anytime. The audit is free either way.
Tell us where to reach you. We'll ask about one dish — three minutes — cost it out with current supplier prices, and send you the full breakdown. No commitment, nothing to install. The audit is free either way.
