How to make headers from specific columns when using the report table tool?

Hello, here is a sample dataset with fake data to mock-up the table design I am going for:

 

Starting Dataset in Alteryx:

restaurantrestaurant_addressrestaurant_phone_numberitemitem_priceitem_score
Ray's Chicken930 Thompson Drive, Mechanicsburg, PA 17050(549) 215-2737Chicken Sandwich$64

Greg's Ice Cream7595 Fordham Street, Prattville, AL 36067(469) 674-0693Vanilla$47
Greg's Ice Cream7596 Fordham Street, Prattville, AL 36067(469) 674-0694Chocolate$46
Greg's Ice Cream7597 Fordham Street, Prattville, AL 36067(469) 674-0695Strawberry$45

 

I do not want repeated information so I would like for the reporting table to look like this instead:

 

Goal (group-by restaurant name):

Of course the real dataset has more and varying number of fields but the gist of it remains the same. How would I achieve my design using the report table tool? Using the group-by option yielded similar results to the first table when I need something more like the mock-up image.

 

Thank you.
