Restaurant Signage Solutions: Branding That Stands Out

Restaurant Signs That Attract, Engage, and Drive Business
A restaurant that fails to fully capitalize on standout signage risks losing far more than just visibility—it risks losing potential customers. In busy business districts and high-traffic streets, how do you ensure your sign is not just noticeable, but memorable? How can it become a recognizable landmark that people use for directions—and most importantly, to find your restaurant?
Not having a sign is simply not an option. In fact, signage is one of the highest ROI advertising investments a restaurant can make.
At Ortwein Sign, our team of expert designers, project managers, and craftsmen bring a deep understanding of color, shape, visibility, construction techniques, and architectural design to every project. Whether you’re opening a single location or scaling to a national brand, we create signage that transforms your restaurant into a local landmark.

Choosing the Right Restaurant Sign
Are you looking for a bold, custom sign to attract new customers? Or does your established restaurant need a fresh brand update? Choosing the right restaurant sign involves more than just picking a design—it requires strategy. Here are five key factors to consider when selecting signage for your restaurant:
1. Know Your Zoning Restrictions
Many cities regulate sign size, style, and illumination. Before selecting your ideal sign, research your local zoning requirements to ensure compliance.
2. Consider Your Location
Your sign should set your restaurant apart while still harmonizing with the surrounding area. A well-designed sign can both blend into the neighborhood aesthetic and stand out enough to draw attention—a perfect balance that maximizes impact.
3. Craft a Clear Message
Your sign’s message should be concise, relevant, and memorable. A dog groomer might use a witty name like “No Fleez Pleez,” but for a restaurant, the name and style of cuisine should be instantly clear to potential diners.
4. Keep It Simple
When it comes to signage, less is more. Overloading your sign with too many colors, graphics, or text can create visual clutter. Instead, focus on essential details—restaurant name, food type, and branding elements that reinforce your identity.
5. Customize for Maximum Impact
Choosing the right signage partner is just as important as the sign itself. At Ortwein Sign, we specialize in custom restaurant signs that enhance your brand both inside and out.
