We've Been in Your Shoes

MYO Restaurant Consulting is led by former restaurant operators who understand what it takes to run a successful operation. Today, we help Dallas–Fort Worth and nationwide restaurant owners build efficient, well-structured businesses designed for long-term success.

Why MYO Exists

MYO exists to help restaurant owners turn good ideas into well-run, profitable businesses. After working inside corporate hospitality and alongside independent operators, we saw firsthand how unclear processes, poor systems, and reactive decision-making hold restaurants back. We built MYO around Lean and Six Sigma principles to simplify operations, reduce waste, and help owners make smarter, data-driven decisions that support long-term success.

Our Founder - Real Experiences. Real Restaurants

Byron Gasaway, CLSSBB, is the founder of MYO Restaurant Consulting and a former restaurateur with over 15 years of hands-on experience in the hospitality industry. He started his career in 1998 with Luby’s Cafeterias and worked his way up through well-known brands like Boston Market, Darden Restaurants, Pappas Restaurants, and CiCi’s Pizza. Along the way, Byron blended real-world restaurant operations with LEAN Six Sigma process management to build practical, proven strategies that are now baked into every MYO engagement.
