917: Steve Brown El Presidente Busboy Restaurant Group

<p>Steve brown is El Presidente of Busboy restaurant group. Steve got his start in the restaurant industry as, you guessed it, a busboy, at the age of 15. He then worked in the kitchen and eventually became a host when he was still in his teens, and he realized then that he really enjoys FOH. In his early 20's, he left the restaurant industry to work in liquor and beer sales for 4 years, until he opened his first restaurant in 1985 with a partner, called <a href="http://esparzastexas.com/">Esparza's Restaurante Mexicano</a> in Grapevine, Texas. In 1990, they opened a second location with a different name. 7 years later they opened a third location, again with a different name, this time called Guerro's. In 2000 came the departure of his former partner, leaving Steve with two locations including the original Esperanza's in Grapevine. Today, Esperanza's is a massive, thriving restaurant and Steve is the president of his own restaurant group.</p> <p>Check out <a href= "https://go.restaurantsystemspro.net/unstoppable">RestaurantSystemsPro</a> as mentioned in today's episode!</p> <p>Check out <a href="https://amzn.to/3JZFCdU">On The Brink: The Life and Leadership of Norman Brinker by Norman Brinker</a> as highly recommend by today's guest!</p> <p>Today’s feature affiliate: Bentobox.
