SEO for zero waste restaurants in NYC

You run a thoughtful restaurant built on sustainability. We help you bring that vision online. With ethical SEO strategy, your mission can be seen by more of the people who care.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Rocio’s SEO implementation helped us grow without compromising our values.” – Sarah Crisp, Queer Social Club

Why sustainable restaurants stay hidden online

The values are there. But is the visibility?

Generic listings don’t show what sets you apart. Compostable containers and hyperlocal sourcing deserve attention.

Search is full of greenwashed results. We help your real sustainability efforts stand out clearly.

Word of mouth only goes so far. You need a consistent way for aligned diners to find you online.

SEO advice is often wasteful. We keep it lean and efficient, just like your business model.

Rocio’s SEO audit and implementation work gave my website a real boost—clean, targeted improvements that didn’t compromise my tone or values as a New York City-based lawyer. I’ve already seen measurable increases in visibility and traffic, and now feel equipped to build sustainably. Can’t recommend their SEO services enough!

As a therapy practice based in New York City, Rocio was a fantastic match for our SEO needs. Coming into the process, we didn't know a lot about SEO strategy, and Rocio was very effective in meeting us where we were and taking our website to the next level. Rocio also taught us many strategies along the way so that we could do SEO improvements ourselves, which felt really generous. It felt like Rocio really wanted to help our company, and delivered very impressive results. Not only have we improved greatly in terms of our rankings, but we now feel like we have a solid grasp on what is needed to keep the momentum going. Highly recommend!!!

After running Queer Social Club (queersocialclub.com) for two years alone, I knew I needed to level up the focus, but was overwhelmed and didn't know where to start. I decided to hire consultant support from a marketing professional who understood both queer culture AND digital marketing strategy - Rocio was the perfect person for this! Working together has equipped me with a whole new level of tools, focus, and priorities for the next year of business and community-building. I plan to hire Rocio again as many times as possible, and recommend MBR to anyone looking for an efficient and creative marketing/branding expert!

I hired Rocio to help with search engine optimization for my website. Not only was Rocio knowledgeable, thorough, and the utmost professional, but her results speak for themselves: within weeks, my website was the top-ranking search result on Google for crucial keywords related to my subject matter! I highly recommend Rocio and look forward to working with her again in the near future.

Rocio’s coaching exceeded my expectations. Rocio didn’t only explain the basics and technicalities of personal branding to me but also took their time to encourage me to show my true colors. Their know-how about building a brand story helped me elevate the communication of the purpose of both my personal and business profile.

I liked Rocio’s unique network in the queer business and fashion space, and their ability to communicate within the marketing team environment. It was a great experience, thanks Rocio!
