Turning Point Restaurants Announces First Franchise Agreement

April 26, 2022 // Franchising.com // EATONTOWN, NJ - Turning Point Restaurants has announced its first franchise agreement. The brand’s first franchise location will open in May, just four months after the brand launched its franchise opportunity. Dave T. Vazquez and Eric Brandow of RNF LLC are expanding Turning Point’s footprint in Pennsylvania, with plans to open a location in Upper Dublin Township. The newest restaurant will mark 22 total Turning Point locations across New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware.

“Nowadays, it’s rare to find a quality brand you can trust. Turning Point is a proven concept that is executed in an extraordinary way,” said Turning Point franchisee, Eric Brandow. “This company is dedicated to opening new restaurants that prove to be profitable, manageable, and well-loved by the community; we just knew this concept would be a great addition to Upper Dublin.”

Vazquez and Brandow met in 1997 while working for a restaurant operator in Philadelphia. Since then, they’ve worked on larger teams to open several high-end restaurants, including Buddakan, a well-known Asian fusion restaurant in Philadelphia and New York City. Independently, Vazquez worked for KC Prime Steakhouse, Striped Bass, and also opened 22 Bowen’s Wharf in Newport, Rhode Island. Brandow himself opened Serpico with James Beard award-winning chef Peter Serpico, and managed two Capital Grille locations in the Philadelphia area. After decades of honing their skills, the pair is ready to take their industry experience to Turning Point.

“We are so excited to have Dave and Eric join the Turning Point family as our first franchise owners,” says Kirk Ruoff, Founder and CEO of Turning Point Restaurants. “Their combined industry experience and desire to pursue a better work / life balance for themselves and their families is a great fit for Turning Point.”

The Upper Dublin location will bring Turning Point’s creative breakfast and lunch menu items to Montgomery County. Their delicious offerings include Avocado Smash Benny, Yankee Shrimp & Cheddar Grits, ‘OMG’ French Toast, along with French press coffee that is ground per order.
