Case Study: A Worli Sea-Face Eatery's Revival

The Challenge:

A popular but unprofitable Worli eatery was struggling with high food costs (upwards of 38%) and an overly extensive, confusing menu. Guest satisfaction, despite regulars, was waning due to choice fatigue.

The Result:

In just six months, the eatery experienced:

  • 22% Increase in average check size
  • 12% Reduction in food costs
  • A glowing 5-star review from a top Mumbai food blogger, leading to an 18% surge in new customer footfall.
