Restaurant value is not a price point. It is the experience. In this episode, Zack sits down with Jay Bandy, President at Goliath Consulting Group, to unpack what guests really buy and how teams can deliver it consistently. With nearly four decades in foodservice, Jay shares the practical foundations that still work: hire for warmth, train relentlessly, and build a culture guests can feel.

Zack and Jay discuss:

  • Why value equals price plus experience
  • Hiring signals that predict great front-of-house performance
  • Training first, then hospitality
  • Daily “drip” habits that shape culture
  • Turning B players into A players through service vs. hospitality

Thanks, Jay!
