SOPs & Training Systems
Restaurant SOP & Training Systems That Stick
Israel Johnson writes customized restaurant SOPs, training programs and manager routines for FOH, BOH, bar and management, then builds them into Playbook so every employee is trained, certified and held to the same standard.
Build My SOPs & TrainingSOPs built for your restaurant
Generic templates rarely survive a busy Friday. SOPs are written around how your restaurant actually runs.
- Opening and closing procedures and checklists
- Daily, weekly and monthly manager routines
- Receiving, storage, inventory and ordering
- Standardized recipe cards, yields, portions and plating
- Food safety, sanitation and BOH standards
- Service sequence, guest recovery and complaint handling
Training that can be measured
Onboarding programs, position-specific training modules, knowledge checks and certifications give managers proof that training happened—and show where coaching is needed.

Frequently asked questions
Can you write SOPs without a full turnaround?
Yes. SOP and training system work can be scoped on its own or as part of a 30-day turnaround.
Do I need Playbook to use the SOPs?
No, but digitizing them in Playbook makes training, verification and accountability far easier to sustain.
Who trains the staff?
Israel trains managers and team members during the engagement so the systems are understood, not just documented.
