Four Decades Feeding New York

Founded in 1985 on Manhattan's historic Bowery, Rainbow Restaurant Equipment Supplies grew from a one-man operation into one of New York City's most trusted commercial kitchen suppliers.

We've equipped everything from Michelin-starred tasting rooms in Midtown to neighborhood pizzerias in Queens, from hotel ballroom kitchens to food truck commissaries. Our team understands the unique pressures of New York — tight spaces, strict health codes, and the relentless pace of a city that never stops eating.

Fast Turnaround

Same-week installation whenever possible. We know your opening date is non-negotiable.

Certified Technicians

Our service team holds certifications from all major equipment manufacturers.

Transparent Pricing

No hidden fees, no surprise charges. Every quote is detailed and upfront.

NYC-Specific Expertise

We know NYC health department codes, building regulations, and the logistical challenges of delivering equipment to Manhattan high-rises and brownstones.
