Valet that sells tables
When parking is hard, reservations go elsewhere. A staffed valet lane takes that problem away, protects your busiest service windows, and makes arriving feel like part of the meal. Our attendants work as your first greeters — opening doors, welcoming regulars by name, and keeping the curb moving on a Friday night. It’s the difference between hiring a valet company built for restaurants and leaving the curb to chance.
RCMA Valet already runs nightly and weekend valet for Northeast Ohio restaurants including Chez François and Touché Bistro in Vermilion and The Aviator in Cleveland — venues where the arrival experience is part of the brand.

Built around your service
- Recurring nightly or weekend-only coverage — you pick the windows
- Overflow and lot-management plans for tight urban curbs
- Smart ticketing at select locations: guests text or scan a QR code to request their car before dessert is cleared
- Consistent, uniformed valet team your regulars will recognize
- Documented key control on every shift
Whether you run one valet stand or need full valet staff for a Friday night rush, the plan stays built around your service, not a generic model.

Who pays for the valet
Every restaurant’s math is different, so we build the program around yours: a flat rate the house covers, guest-paid valet, or a validation model. We’ll look at your covers, your curb, and the parking reality of your block, then propose the structure that fits. Ask about a trial run on your busiest service window.
Questions
Restaurant valet questions
How does restaurant valet pricing work?
Three common models: the restaurant covers a flat rate, guests pay per car, or a hybrid with validation. We’ll recommend the best fit after seeing your cover counts and curb layout — many partners start with a weekend trial.
Can you run valet for just Friday and Saturday nights?
Yes. Weekend-only and event-night coverage is common. We also scale up for holidays like Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, and New Year’s Eve when every table turns.
What is smart ticketing?
At select locations, tickets include a QR code or text number so guests can request their car from the table. Cars are staged and waiting when they walk out — shorter curb lines, faster table turns.
Do you serve restaurants outside downtown Cleveland?
Yes — we run restaurant valet across Northeast Ohio, from downtown and Ohio City to Vermilion, Westlake, Rocky River, Beachwood, and beyond.
Who parks the cars?
Uniformed RCMA Valet attendants. Every attendant is at least 18 and holds a valid driver’s license, and the crew is briefed on your venue, your timing, and where each car will be staged before the first guest arrives.
What if something happens to my car?
Tell the attendant at the stand before you leave. We keep a vehicle report form on location and fill it out with you on the spot, so there is a written record right away. Your valet ticket carries this information too, so you always have it in hand.
