A restaurant can make the food, take the blame for a bad delivery, and still hand over a big chunk of the order. 🍽️ Delo and Stacy Mitchell get into what happens when the businesses doing the work have limited say over the fees and services they depend on.

In Episode 236 of ON THE DELO: Arizona’s Hospitality Podcast, Stacy Mitchell, Co-Executive Director of the Institute for Local Self-Reliance, shares her perspective on delivery apps, credit card fees, supplier consolidation, and why shopping local is important but not enough. She also explains how owners can make their voices heard through existing business organizations without taking on another full-time job.

There is punk rock, espresso, and a lot of love for the neighborhood places that make a community feel like itself. This one is for the owners working hard to keep those places here and the people who want to support them.

What if restaurants could get better guest feedback without waiting weeks for a secret shopper report? 👀🍽️

And what if something as simple as a phone number on a receipt could help turn a negative experience into an opportunity to make things right?

On Episode 235 of ON THE DELO: Arizona’s Hospitality Podcast, Delo sits down with Retta Kekic, co-founder and Chief Revenue Officer of diner, to talk about how technology is changing the way restaurants listen to their guests.

From reimagining traditional secret shopping with real-time feedback to giving guests a direct line to share their experiences before heading to Google or Yelp, diner is helping operators better understand what's happening inside their restaurants.

🎙️ Catch the full conversation on Episode 235 of ON THE DELO, available now on YouTube, Spotify, and wherever you listen to podcasts!

Something happened at your restaurant. Does your manager know exactly what to do next?

In the moments after an incident, you don't want your team figuring out the process as they go.

From documenting what happened to preserving camera footage and knowing who needs to be notified, having a plan in place matters.

Not sure if your restaurant is prepared? Let's talk. DeLo and the Bar & Restaurant Insurance team can help you identify potential gaps in your coverage and make sure you're better prepared when the unexpected happens.

There’s a big difference between eating and dining, and an even bigger difference between living and simply existing.

In Episode 233 of On The Delo, I sit down with Dean Waziry, founder and executive chef of Urban Fraîche in Phoenix.

Dean arrived in New York from Egypt with just $17 and no English, spent 29 years building a career in hospitality, and eventually stepped away from corporate life to create something entirely his own: a restaurant, lifestyle center, and spa rooted in wellness, integrity, and intentional living.

But this conversation goes far beyond food.

We talk about what it means to build a business with purpose, lead with integrity, create meaningful experiences, and make the most of the life you're living.

Whether you're running a business, leading a team, or considering your next big move, Dean's perspective will give you plenty to think about.

▶️ Watch or listen to Episode 233 of On The Delo and discover why Dean believes the way we live, work, and connect matters just as much as what we accomplish.
