There are a number of corporate vehicles which you could set up your restaurant as. However for most restaurants, a simple private limited company could be ideal.

The application to incorporate a company can be made online on the BizFile+ website of the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) for about $300.
