Josiah Citrin
Michelin Chef & Owner
@ Citrin Hospitality Group-Mélisse, Citrin,
Salar has been an invaluable consultant for our team. His ability to quickly understand challenges and provide clear, practical solutions has helped us navigate complex issues with confidence. Beyond problem-solving, he brings structure and organization that have strengthened our group and elevated our operations. Salar is a true professional who combines expertise with a calm & solutions-driven approach, making him an essential partner in our growth.
Cynthia Vigil
CEO @ Toast Restaurant Group
Salar’s consulting made a clear and measurable difference in our operation. His training gave our staff practical tools that improved confidence, consistency, and service standards across the board. Beyond immediate results, he focused on developing leadership within our team, which has had a lasting impact on our culture. Guests noticed the improvement right away, and the elevated service has continued since.
Tim C.
VP @ Samesun Group
Salar’s knowledge and experience on new restaurant opening and operations, combined with his familiarity of the local restaurant scene and trends, saved us a substantial amount of time and money on our build out. He was always ahead of the project, helping us overcome any speedbumps we faced. Our consulting investment became apparent very quickly after starting our work with him.
Jimmy Feng
Hospitality Chairman @ Grand Pacific Investment & Development Co. LTD
Salar is an outstanding food and beverage consultant whose passion and experience set him apart. Working with him feels like having an ever-reliable resource—you can ask him any question, and he consistently delivers more than expected. What truly makes Salar unique, however, is his genuine warmth and human touch. Unlike AI tools, which provide information, Salar brings empathy, intuition, and inspiration—the very qualities that drive lasting success in hospitality operations
Rob Arellano
CEO @ Descanso Restaurant
Partnering with Savory Hospitality over the past three months has been a game-changer for Descanso. Their consulting sharpened our operations, strengthened our brand focus, and elevated the standards of service across both locations. The training was practical and motivating, giving our team the confidence to deliver consistency at every touchpoint. More than just operations, their insights helped us clarify who we are as a brand and how to communicate that to our guests. The results are clear; our team is stronger, our culture is tighter, and the guest experience has never been more aligned with our vision.
Ryan Selvin
Director @ Selvins management
Incredibly knowledgeable, experienced and detail-oriented professional with his pulse on industry trends. Salar is very hard-working and passionate about what his work and truly cares about his clients and their success. It's been a pleasure working with him.
Steven Ortmann, CHA
Chief Operating Officer @ The Palm Hotel & Spa
Salar stands out not only for his depth of knowledge and ability to anticipate challenges, but also for his drive, integrity, and genuine care for the people he works with. He and his team went above and beyond to ensure our success, bringing both strategic vision and hands-on support that elevated every aspect of the project.
Thanasi P.
F&B Director @ Metropolitan Theaters
I contacted Savory Hospitality for a new restaurant and bar concept in Colorado. They helped our team with the overall concept, menu, layout design, and staffing for a head chef. Working with Salar and his team went so well, that I had him consult on a restaurant turnaround in Long beach. They worked with our staff on training, hiring and menu development
