Erik Reese is no ordinary restaurant and retail real estate adviser. In fact, restaurants are kind of his super power. He comes to the table (no pun intended) with an impressive set of credentials including receiving his BSBA in Hospitality Management at the University of Denver, and graduating at the top of his class from Le Cordon Bleu Paris. From there, he went on to hone his skills at Le Taillevent, famed for being the only restaurant to twice rank #1 in the world.
When he moved to the Bay Area, Erik turned to the business side, parlaying his considerable talents into a 20-year career creating, designing, and opening restaurants, including Asqew Grill, BurgerMeister, Cream, and Fleur de Lys (Las Vegas).
Over the years, Erik built great relationships with leading Bay Area hospitality companies like Restaurant Design Concepts and MCG Inc. Today, his network of restaurateurs, consultants and contractors keeps Erik on top of all the latest industry news.
“I’ve always had a passion for restaurants. It takes something special to ride this roller coaster and be successful. Over the years, I’ve worked with so many talented creative people in the industry and it’s great to be able to share that knowledge and experience with my clients, to help feed their success.”
