Who We Are

Our founder, Chris Tsui, opened his first concept, Osaka Sushi & Steak, in 2002. Since then, EAT Restaurant Partners has become one of the most innovative and arguably most popular restaurant families around.  EAT RP pioneered and helped shape the restaurant scene for the past 20 years by embracing a core ideology that our people must come first and that the guest experience is paramount!

YES!

TEAM-DRIVEN

Our restaurants’ success is reliant on the success of our team! If one of us isn’t finding success, it is more challenging for the rest of our team to succeed. Each member of our team (dining room, kitchen, leadership) has an integral role to play. We do things without expecting anything in return. If we need to adjust, we do so together.

AUTHENTIC

Be your authentic self! We embrace everyone from everywhere. We enlighten ourselves through authentic interaction with our community. We are authentic in the way we lead our associates. We provide an authentic food experience for our guests, whether it is our legacy concepts, imaginative fusion offerings, or fresh takes on classic American cuisine.

SErvice-FOCUSED

We strive to create a unique guest experience – always! We do the little things to create memorable moments. We bring the fun…Especially when something unfavorable happens. We go “all out” to ensure our guests feel welcomed, respected, and valued.

THOUGHTFUL

We are both thoughtful and intentional in the way we cultivate our environments for both our guests and our associates. We are thoughtful when hiring, developing, and growing our teams and running our businesses. We continuously think of ways to refine each guest’s experience, each associate’s/leader’s role, and each meal’s quality each and every day…all while ensuring the businesses’ needs are met.

YES!

We say, “YES!” Whereas others default to “No.” We look for every opportunity to delight our guests by saying yes. We do so by taking time to understand guests’ needs and finding a way to make their wants a reality. We arm ourselves with knowledge about our food and beverage and our service, so in the unlikely situation when a guest asks for a cheeseburger in a sushi concept, we can tailor our approach to ensure they leave 100% satisfied. Most of all, we do this because we understand that by saying “YES” to our guests, we create raving fans who support our businesses and associates.
