Restaurant and hospitality construction in Orange County.
Dining rooms, bars, breweries and hotels, built by the contractor behind The Ranch at Laguna Beach, Rock’N Fish, Urth Caffé and Tantalum.
Rooms people come back to.
Hospitality work is judged by guests, so finish quality and schedule both matter. Burge has built restaurant interiors in existing and historic buildings, renovated a full hotel property, and turned a shell space into a working micro-brewery.
Restaurant tenant improvements
Kitchens, bars, dining rooms and restrooms built inside existing buildings, from a 6,100 SF restaurant and bar in Laguna Beach to a harbor-front restaurant in Long Beach.
Hotel renovation
Structural and interior renovation of guest buildings and lodges, plus new ground-up buildings such as the spa at The Ranch at Laguna Beach.
Breweries and tasting rooms
Tenant improvements for production space and the public tasting room, like the 4,100 SF Anaheim Brewery.
Historic buildings
Restaurants in buildings that need structural and historic restoration first, as at Urth Caffé and the Heisler Building.
Clubhouses and banquet space
Dining rooms, finishes and site work for clubhouses and event spaces, including the San Clemente Municipal Golf Course clubhouse.
Solar, storage and charging
Burge Energy can add solar, battery storage or EV charging for guests to the same project.

Questions owners ask first.
Straight answers before you call.
Do you build restaurants inside existing buildings?
Yes. Most of Burge's restaurant work is tenant improvement inside existing buildings, including Rock’N Fish in Laguna Beach and Tantalum in Long Beach.
Can you renovate a hotel property?
Yes. At The Ranch at Laguna Beach, Burge completed a structural and interior renovation of the hotel and lodge, built a new spa and installed new site utilities. When a property needs to stay open, work is phased around operations.
Can you build in a historic building?
Yes. Urth Caffé in Laguna Beach required a complete historic and structural restoration of the building before the new restaurant interior went in. See historic restoration.

Burge is based in San Clemente and builds across Orange County and Southern California, with past hospitality projects in Laguna Beach, Long Beach, Anaheim and San Clemente.
