Testimonials

“Being part of NCRLA helps us stay on top of changes that happen to laws and regulations and allows us to be a part of the policy-making process. NCRLA has consistently provided us solid guidance on health department regulations and assists us with clear resolutions to challenges from our local health inspectors. We value the advocacy on all fronts.”
Jim Beley
General Manager / The Umstead Hotel and Spa and Heron’s Restaurant
“Membership in NCRLA is not an option for us at Burke Hospitality Group, it’s a necessity for our business. I know who I can call at a moment’s notice when one of my establishments is having an issue with the health inspector, the ABC board, or if I need guidance on a labor issue. We have saved on our bottom line by participating in the exclusive cost savings programs vetted through NCRLA. It would be tough to run a restaurant business without all the support of NCRLA.”
Tom Sasser
Owner / Burke Hospitality Group
“As a nation-wide operator, I value the support of NCRLA. Without the expertise and watchful eye of NCRLA, harmful legislation could slip through the cracks and have an adverse impact on our ability to do business in North Carolina. NCRLA is keenly focused on changing laws and regulations that are negative and work to identify opportunities to promote positive changes to ease regulations on businesses. There is no better advocate for the hospitality industry.”
