Stone’s Restaurant Real Estate Team helps local, franchised, and corporate restaurants grow. Whether you're a local operator ready to open your first brick-and-mortar, a growing franchisee expanding into new territories, or a corporate brand scaling across the U.S., our team offers unmatched expertise in both restaurants and real estate. We’re not just brokers—we’re industry insiders. Our team includes former chefs, restaurateurs, franchise developers, and commercial real estate experts who understand what it takes to open a successful restaurant. That means we speak your language—lease structures, drive-thru stacking, venting requirements, occupancy costs, TI allowances, franchise development timelines—and align your site selection process with your brand’s operational goals and financial realities. We specialize in tenant representation for restaurant brands across the United States, but our roots are in California. Through our proprietary CLEAR™ system, we take a consultative, data-driven approach to identify ideal trade areas, evaluate retail centers, analyze co-tenancy and competition, and secure the best real estate for growth. From high-volume quick service restaurants to upscale fast casual and full-service dining, we’ve helped hundreds of restaurants grow with confidence and consistency.
