Restaurant bookkeeping with prime cost by Monday

A restaurant runs on thin margins and fast decisions. We match your POS, delivery apps and bank deposits, report prime cost every week, and run payroll for full-time, part-time and tipped staff.

Questions we hear on the first call

If any of these sound familiar, we can help. Every answer ends up in your own QuickBooks Online or Xero file.

  • “What was my prime cost last week, not last quarter?”
  • “My POS and my bank deposits never match.”
  • “How should tips and tip-outs run through payroll?”
  • “Uber Eats, DoorDash and Grubhub payouts never match my sales.”

The number you live by, every month

Each report is checked twice: once by software, then by a named LedgerWorks accountant. One fixed monthly fee covers it.
