From blurring the line with retail to pushing the envelope with automation, restaurants are evolving and expanding in ways that transform the experience for diners and staff alike. Innovation and adaptability continue to be priorities in 2023. Owners are preparing for economic challenges and making room for opportunity with both proven tactics and new innovations.
