ABOUT US
AHA Hospitality Group is a full service consultancy group based in South Florida that bridges the gap between brands and hospitality that serves its clients’ needs globally.
We specialize in hospitality consulting, culinary brand development, and food and beverage operations. Our passion lies in crafting memorable experiences through exceptional food and beverage offerings, compelling storytelling, and industry-leading concepts.
Led by Andrew Platt, a lifelong culinary and hospitality professional, our approach transcends traditional expectations of a "chef". With decades of real-world experience, including collaborations with Michelin-awarded chefs, James Beard Award-winning restaurant groups, and international travel corporations, Andrew and his team possess a wealth of knowledge that can significantly benefit both new and seasoned operators. His expertise enables clients to enhance profitability, maximize efficiencies, scale operations rapidly, and streamline processes, all while establishing enduring brands within communities nationwide.
What sets AHA apart from the rest? We just don't consult restaurants and F&B operations, we own and manage them too. We know what it takes to operate and last in the tumultuous environment operators face today. With rising food costs, whacky supply chain, soaring labor costs, exorbitant rents and occupancy costs, we deal with it every day in our own concepts. We don't provide one size fits all approaches, rather we focus tailor made approaches to promote successful outcomes for our clients.
Having launched over 40 restaurants and food and beverage venues in various capacities, Andrew's skill set extends well beyond the kitchen to encompass dining room management and high-level international operations. His extensive network of contacts and resources spans the globe, providing clients with a competitive advantage regardless of their location or operational context.
Founded in 2019, our mission was clear: to assemble the "best of the best" within the industry. Our curated team includes top architects, chefs, interior designers, mixologists, contractors, operators, and other specialists, all equipped to undertake projects of any scale, anywhere in the world, at any time.
