“Working with Return On Ingredients has been a game changer at the Chocolate Cafe. We struggled with our food costing and inventory for a long time before they helped us get organized and focused, which in turn improved our bottom line dramatically. Return On Ingredients is one of the best investments a restaurant can make.” - Lisa Boyle, Owner, Chocolate Cafe and Chocolate Cafe Express, Columbus, OH.

“Our team really enjoyed working with Mark! His expertise is second to none. He helped us better document and organize our recipes and streamline our inventory. He truly optimized our food costing, making an immediate impact on our profit.” - Greg Lehman, Founder * CEO, Watershed Kitchen & Bar, Columbus, OH

"We worked with Return On Ingredients in 2022 to verify recipes.  We use a commissary, so a lot of verifications from that facility and also at the restaurant itself.  ROI has a deep knowledge of recipes and was able to communicate effectively to those in the field and to the management team.  I would highly recommend!" - David Conley, CFO, Condado Tacos, Columbus, OH
