Restaurants

Built to Impress and Perform

A restaurant space is more than walls and tables—it’s the stage where brand, experience, and operations converge. At Kiel Thomson Company, we specialize in restaurant construction that delivers both aesthetic impact and behind-the-scenes precision. Whether it’s your first concept or your fifth location, we build environments that bring your culinary vision to life.

Kitchens that Work as Hard as You Do

From custom venting to code compliance, commercial kitchens come with intense demands. Our team understands the operational flow, regulatory standards, and spatial efficiency needed for success. With founder Kiel Thomson’s background as a chef, we build with a rare depth of understanding—so your kitchen supports your staff, not the other way around.

A Space That Reflects Your Brand

We collaborate closely with owners, chefs, designers, and architects to create memorable dining spaces—spaces that support your menu, elevate your guest experience, and make a lasting impression. Whether rustic, refined, or unexpected, your restaurant should feel like an extension of your story—and we’re here to build it right.

Designed by a Builder Who’s Been Behind the Line

Kiel Thomson doesn’t just build restaurants—he’s worked in them. As a 5-star certified chef trained at the Culinary Institute of America, Kiel brings an uncommon level of insight into how commercial kitchens truly function. He understands the urgency, flow, and pressure of the service industry because he’s lived it. That means every layout, surface, and system we install is grounded in real-world experience—not just design theory.

From the back-of-house demands of ventilation, sanitation, and staff movement to the front-of-house atmosphere that shapes guest impressions, we consider every detail from a chef’s perspective and a builder’s eye. It’s this rare blend—culinary expertise, project leadership, and hands-on craftsmanship—that sets Kiel Thomson Company apart when it comes to building exceptional restaurants.
