Cameron Mitchell

Cameron Mitchell graduated from the Culinary Institute of America when he was 22 years old and has grown 13 different restaurant concepts, including Mitchell’s Fish Market and Mitchell’s Steakhouse, a total of 22 restaurants that were sold to Ruth’s Hospitality Group for $92 million. To this day, CMR remains independent and privately held recognizing nearly $200 million in annual revenue from its 34 restaurants and catering division. Mitchell has built CMR around the philosophy, “The answer is yes. What is the question?” and by making a Raving Fan out of every guest who walks into the door of a CMR concept. It’s a simple statement that serves as the backbone of how the company identifies itself as “great people delivering genuine hospitality.”
