Restaurant Types

Restaurant types are based on the menu style, price, type of food as well as how the food is served. No matter what kinds of food the restaurant serves, the restaurant type normally fits into just a few categories. Although there are some additional ones out there (i.e. food trucks), this site focuses on the following:
