Our restaurant has been in business for probably about 20 years, so we do have our regular customers, but since economy is not the best, neither has been our business. We reopened after a whole remodeling about 4 months ago and added sushi. Along with that we sell icecream(packaged), and bottle drinks. We’ve also tried sending out flyers with coupons attached. What way can we attract more customers to our restaurant?

One old trick it to pump the cooking smells from the kitchen to outside towards the street. If it smells good people will be more inclined to come in, is the theory. Another thing that might help is coupons. My wife loves them. Local area home delivery?

Maybe you should hilight chinese traditional specials, good service, dilicious food.
Or build a website to introduce the food and your service.
I think playing some chinese music, or having something that other chinese places don’t have like the vinegar and chilli on the table and having a pictured menu outside the door
