Our Design Team
Experience and Expertise
Our design team is led by designer, Frank Stocco, who has been in the industry for 45 years, starting his career as a dishwasher, cook, Culinary Institute of America graduate (1975), chef, restaurant owner, and currently consultant/designer. The experience of the team is invaluable to understand our clients’ food service concept and vision and then translate that into a great design. With that experience, comes a responsibility to our clients’ needs and of course, budget. We are not the “final word” on design. Our process is truly collaborative — a really fun process.
I was in the process of starting a new restaurant and wanted to get the space designed prior to receiving the alcohol license...I decided to utilize Frank Stocco with National Restaurant Design. My initial discussions with Frank convinced me that he was the most knowledgeable of the designers I had spoken to and offered the most comprehensive package for the most reasonable price.
