Dear Bradhatcher, 

Depends on which type of restaurant and where: 

"a fast-food restaurant manager may make in the mid $20s" 
(SOURCE:  Paul W. Barada, "High-Paying Jobs for Generalists",
Monster.com, <http://content.salary.monster.com/articles/generalists/>).

"The average starting salary for a restaurant or hotel manager is $25,300." 
(SOURCE:  Moraine Valley Community College, Restaurant and hotel
