“RAS1 has been nothing short of fantastic for the past 15 years. Before them, I had an entire corporate accounting department with a CFO and many bookkeepers. Now I simply have RAS1 with Arthur as my CFO and the RAS1 team replacing the huge overhead of an accounting department. Most importantly, I have reliable weekly bookkeeping and reporting and monthly financial statements that are fine-tuned and dialed in to all my restaurant holdings. I only wish I discovered my alternative accounting solution and moved over to RAS1 15 years sooner.”
Don’t settle for generic Accounting & Reporting. Your restaurant’s metrics are not the same as a landscaping company. Yet, your accountant is likely providing you with the same generic reporting processed from bookkeeping software. There is a better way — a much better way. With RAS1 you have all of your bookkeeping along with customized financial reporting in your hands on a timely and accurate basis every week allowing you to stay profitable and gain control of your prime cost and operating expenses.
Pioneers for the business you love. There are many reasons why there is a number 1 in our name. In 1989, RAS1 started first in Nantucket providing bookkeeping and accounting solutions to high volume, seasonal restaurants. Over 30 years later, we are still truly the number one accounting solution for restaurants, delivering weekly processing of bookkeeping and financial reporting to a much expanded restaurant client base with longevity to customers and membership with the MRA.
Can your current Restaurant Accounting Service truthfully say that?
Arthur G. Chaprales, Founder & CEO
George A. Leonovich, Co-Founder &
“14 years ago, our legendary Boston Restaurant CPA, Mr. Saul Garlick, recommended RAS1 as an alternative to our then in-house accounting department. Thank you Saul for that recommendation and thank you RAS1 for continuing to provide the optimum of bookkeeping and financial reporting standards.”
“ For the past 19 years, I could always count on RAS1 to guide me through the financial challenges that go hand and hand with operating a very busy restaurant. The daily, weekly and monthly financial information I receive has made my life less stressful and my restaurant more profitable.”
Alan Delaney, Owner Skipper Chowder House
“In the restaurant business, you can get in trouble really fast. That’s the beauty of receiving accurate bookkeeping resulting in critical weekly and monthly reports. RAS1 lets you know where you are and where you should be like a road map, making sure percentages are in line at all times. I couldn’t even imagine what it would be like to operate my busy restaurant without the RAS1 road map and team approach which I have had for over 25 years.”
We know what you’re thinking: “I already have a Bookkeeper.” “I already have an Accounting Service.” “I already have a CPA Accountant.” Think again.

PRE ORDER NOW AVAILABLE FOR ROSE ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE LICENSE PLATE
The Rose Island Lighthouse & Fort Hamilton Trust is now accepting preorders for their special edition Rose Island Lighthouse license plates.
In a new way to support the activities of The Rose Island Lighthouse & Fort Hamilton Trust, pre order forms are now live for patrons to purchase charity license plates. The Rose Island Lighthouse & Fort Hamilton Trust–a 501c3 non-profit organization that works to preserve the historic and environmental integrity of Rose Island and maintain and operate the lighthouse for public access–is offering this opportunity open to any person who has a passenger car registered in Rhode Island. The plates, which contain imagery of the Rose Island Lighthouse and Newport Pell Bridge, require an initial order of 600 before the DMV will produce the plates.
The sail numbers – 18 and 70 – on the Shields sailboats in the foreground of the lighthouse represent the year the light was first lit in the lighthouse, 1870. The lighthouse itself sits on the southwest bastion of Fort Hamilton, a U.S. fortification dating to the late 1700’s.
“Thank you to our local delegation in the RI State House, particularly Senator Dawn Euer and Representative Lauren Carson for their efforts in passing the enabling legislation that authorized the creation of these new plates.”, said Sean O’Connor, executive director of the Trust.
The form to preorder your plate—along with a Frequently Asked Questions sheet—can be accessed online on the Rose Island website at tinyurl.com/roseislandplate
A sample image of the plate and a QR code to the preorder form are included below and available in a public link here: MEDIA FOLDER
