Restaurantology · Brief №01
Same rent. Different reality.
Three inputs. One four-wall reality. A live companion to Shawn's desktop demo.

AUV alone tells you nothing.
Two stores can post the same annual sales and live in completely different worlds.
To know if a restaurant works, you need three things on the same page: geography, box size, and unit volume.
Three inputs decide whether the math works.
Market
Tap
Where the box sits. Per-square-foot rent in Brickell isn't comparable to Phoenix — even before you talk about recoveries.
Box size
Tap
The square-foot count that multiplies the PSF. A 900 SF beverage box and a 7,500 SF steakhouse aren't in the same conversation.
Annual unit volume
Tap
The denominator. Same occupancy load is healthy at $4M AUV and fatal at $1.5M. AUV is the part most pitch decks oversell.
The four-wall reality
Pick a market. Pick a box. See it.
All numbers update as you choose.
Verdict · Watch list
5.5%
Within healthy operating range. Margin compression possible if labor or food costs run hot, but structurally sound.
Six anchors. Tap any to expand.
24 markets across three layers of confidence.
Published rates come from named sources. Provisional rates extend a comparable. Pending rates are held back until a Phase-Three pull lands.
Your highest-sales store may not be your best store.
AUV is the headline. The four-wall reality is the story.
