Philosophy

IMAGINE culinary group is a locally based restaurant management company that offers boutique-level service to a discerning clientele. We cater to leading companies that prefer the superior service of a highly responsive and flexible organization, while maintaining a local, artisan feel for their food service operations.

Inspired by our longstanding involvement with the Bay Area local food movement and our simply stated passion to serve “healthy and sustainable food in the workplace,” IMAGINE is a socially and environmentally responsible company dedicated to providing an extraordinary restaurant experience in a corporate setting. A leader of positive change in the local community, we provide ample career opportunities for staff and donate 10% of our annual profits to local food banks.

As culinary professionals dedicated to the highest quality fare, we are committed to the exclusive use of local, seasonal, natural and organic ingredients in our menus. All of the food we source is grown in an environmentally sustained manner, with 70 – 80% provided by vendors located within a 250-mile radius of the Bay Area. All dishes are prepared using healthy cooking practices while maintaining the highest standard of sanitation and food safety.

At IMAGINE, integrity is our top priority. Clients enjoy an “open book costing philosophy,” allowing completely transparent access to all financial records related to their account. We believe in opening the lines of communication by maintaining policies that foster a sense of trust and security. To further guarantee the highest degree of service excellence, we share 10% of our annual profits with every member of our culinary group, ensuring that every staff member has a vested interest in client satisfaction.
