What the tool actually does

Built for planning decisions

This is an early planning tool, not a code-compliance calculator. Local occupancy, egress, accessibility, kitchen, and fire requirements need professional review.

Practical decision guide

Separate four restaurant circulation systems

Table count is only one variable. A useful early plan tests guest, staff, delivery, and emergency movement without assuming local code compliance.

Guest path
Trace entry, waiting, seating, payment, and restroom access without crossing service bottlenecks.
Service path
Test movement between kitchen, pickup, storage, table groups, clearing, and waste areas.
Required review
Have qualified local professionals verify capacity, egress, accessibility, food service, and fire rules.
