Back of the House, one of the Bay Area’s most renowned restaurant groups, enlisted KCPR as its agency of record in 2023.
The team was tapped for the brand’s marquee opening of the year, Corzetti, a coastal Italian restaurant that would open in Union Square. KCPR bartered two exclusives, including an opening announcement with the San Francisco Chronicle and a first look with Eater SF. Within just one week of opening, Corzetti was seen on the pages of all major Bay Area publications, as well as national media including Plate and InsideHook. Accolades rolled in including Robb Report’s “Most Beautiful New Restaurants in America,” SFist’s “Best New Restaurants of 2023,” “The Best Things We Ate This Week” from The Infatuation and “Best Martinis in San Francisco” from the San Francisco Chronicle. The restaurant has also topped Eater SF’s “Hottest Restaurants” list every month to-date since opening in August. Traditional media covered 40 pieces of coverage across more than 800,000,000 viewers.
KCPR also deployed a full-scale influencer program with Corzetti, bringing in more than 15 influencers in the span of two months with a total follower count of 1.6 million.
