CHICAGO, Nov. 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — Restaurant Business magazine has released its annual ranking of the Top 100 Independent Restaurants, an important benchmark for industry operators that highlights the highest-grossing non-chain restaurant concepts in the U.S. In all, eight Florida restaurants are included on the list, up from six last year.

All of the restaurants in the Top 100 serve as a reminder that being nimble, resilient and thoughtful about both customers and employees is a formula fit for today’s restaurant climate. “In many ways, by going back to the basics—empowering and nurturing employee ambassadors, finding new ways to operate lean and connecting with their communities—these restaurants are standing strong amid challenging times for the industry,” says Sara Rush Wirth, managing editor of Restaurant Business.

Revenues for independents in the Top 100 ranking ranged from Timberline Steaks and Grille with $12,150,000 to Tao Asian Bistro in Las Vegas with nearly $48 million. Restaurants in this year’s Top 100 Independents list had total food and beverage revenues of roughly $1.8 billion in 2015. It’s an important number to focus on, especially with chain restaurants’ current state of decreasing sales.

Florida Independents

The Sunshine State is home to a total of eight of the Top 100 Independents, with three of the highest-grossing restaurants located on Disney properties. Furthermore, Miami Beach has two restaurants that landed in the top 10 spots. To view the complete rank of Florida’s Top Independents, visit 2016 Top Independent Restaurants in Florida.
