Features
Everything included in a GetRestaurantWebsite website
Every feature of a GetRestaurantWebsite website for independent restaurants, and which of the three plans carries it.
Pages that open instantly
Custom-coded pages served from the edge, 90+ PageSpeed guaranteed.
The problem it solves
The busiest search for your restaurant happens right before service, on a phone, on whatever signal a guest has on the sidewalk. That is the worst possible moment for a slow page.
What you have to do
Nothing. Speed is our job on every page, and it is guaranteed rather than promised.
Why speed is the first feature
A page that opens instantly keeps the visitor who was about to leave for the next search result. Every page is custom coded, ships almost no JavaScript, and is served from Cloudflare's global edge, so the site is fast on the day it goes live and stays that way, guaranteed at 90 or above on PageSpeed rather than drifting down as photos and plugins pile up.
Speed matters most at the worst moment
The busiest search for your restaurant happens right before service, on a phone, on whatever connection a guest has standing on the sidewalk. That is the exact moment a slow page loses the booking to the place next door that loaded first. A fast site is not a technical detail here, it is the difference between a guest who reads your menu and one who never sees it.

Reservation and ordering links that just work
Wired to the platforms you already use, placed where guests decide.
The problem it solves
A guest who has decided to book or order has to hunt through a footer or a bio link, and some of them give up on the way.
What you have to do
Tell us which platforms you run. If you switch later, say so and every link on the site updates together.
We connect to your platforms, we do not replace them
You already run a reservation system and an ordering platform, whether that is a widget your point-of-sale provider gave you or a delivery app guests already have installed. We link to those directly from the site: a reservation button near the hours and the room description, an order-ahead link next to the menu items it applies to. We do not build a booking engine or take payment ourselves, so there is nothing new for guests to learn and nothing new for your staff to reconcile.
Placed where the decision actually happens
A reservation link buried in a footer gets ignored. Ours sit next to the information that triggers the decision, hours on the contact page, party size near the private dining section, the ordering link beside the dish a guest just read about. When you switch platforms, tell us in the client portal and every link across the site updates together.

A page for every location you run
Its own hours, menu differences and map, not a shared page with two addresses.
The problem it solves
One shared locations page means neither address ranks for its own neighbourhood, and guests cannot tell which site has the patio.
What you have to do
Send the hours, address and menu differences for each location. A new location later is one revision.
One shared page under-serves every location
A single "locations" page with two addresses stapled together tells search engines and guests nothing about either spot. Each location gets its own page: its own hours, its own map, and the menu differences that actually exist between locations, whether that is a patio at one and none at the other, or a lunch special only served downtown. Guests searching for the location nearest them find the page built for that address, not a generic overview.
Built to grow with you
Opening a third or fourth location does not mean redesigning the site. A new location page follows the same structure, gets its own hours and menu notes, and slots into the location finder alongside the others. Nothing about the existing pages changes when a new one is added.

Weekly updates so specials and hours never go stale
A managed cadence keeps specials, hours and menu changes current.
The problem it solves
Specials change weekly and hours shift for holidays, so a site nobody touches is wrong within a month and guests stop trusting it.
What you have to do
Send the change when it happens. No format required, and no size limit on any one request.
A restaurant site is never really finished
Specials change weekly, hours shift for holidays, a dish gets pulled when the supplier runs short. A site that only gets touched at launch is wrong within a month. We run a weekly update cadence so the changes you tell us about land on the site the same week, not whenever someone gets around to it.
Revisions included every month
Send a change through the client portal, whether it is a new weekend special, an updated holiday schedule, or a full page for a new tasting menu, and it counts as one revision regardless of size. Five revisions are included every month, and additional ones are a flat rate with no hourly billing and no surprise invoice.

Researched articles that bring in search traffic
Two to three articles a week on what guests actually search before choosing a restaurant.
The problem it solves
Guests search for an occasion, a neighbourhood or a dietary need long before they search for your name, and those searches currently land on a review aggregator.
What you have to do
Nothing, unless you want to approve topics. Tell us anything you would rather we did not write about.
Guests search before they decide where to eat
Long before someone opens a reservation app, they search things like "best patio for a birthday dinner" or "where to get gluten-free pizza near me." Articles answer those searches and bring guests to your site instead of a review aggregator. Every article is researched and specific to your restaurant, 2,500 to 3,200 words, published two to three times a week depending on your tier.
Written to rank, not just to fill a blog
Each article targets a real search a potential guest types in, ties back to your menu and location, and links to the pages that turn a reader into a reservation or an order. Topics come from what people in your market are actually searching, not generic restaurant filler that could belong to anyone.

Hosting, security and uptime, handled
Cloudflare hosting, SSL, CDN and DDoS protection, included in the monthly fee.
The problem it solves
Hosting renewals, SSL certificates and security warnings are somebody's job, and in most restaurants that somebody does not exist.
What you have to do
Nothing. There is no separate hosting invoice, no certificate to renew and no plugin to update.
One monthly fee, nothing else to manage
Your site runs on Cloudflare's global network with SSL, a content delivery network, DDoS protection and unmetered bandwidth included in the monthly fee. There is no separate hosting invoice, no SSL certificate to renew, and no bandwidth overage charge if a review goes around town and traffic spikes for a week.
We watch it so you do not have to
Uptime and security are monitored on our side. If something needs attention, we handle it before it becomes a problem you hear about from a guest who could not load the menu. You never receive a renewal notice or a security warning to act on yourself.

The AI Engine answers guests when the phone is busy
AI receptionist, site chat and messaging that route real questions to a person.
The problem it solves
The phone rings while your host is seating a table, and the message that came in at 10pm is answered at noon the next day, by which point the guest has booked somewhere else.
What you have to do
Approve what it is allowed to say. Food safety, allergen and nutrition questions always go to your team, never to the AI.
It picks up the questions the floor cannot
During service, the phone rings while your host is seating a table and nobody is free to answer a chat message. The AI Engine handles that moment: an AI receptionist for calls, a chat widget on the site, and AI-handled messages on SMS, Messenger and Instagram, answering hours, location and general menu questions so a guest is not left waiting. Text messaging is filed under A2P 10DLC as required, so messages actually deliver.
It knows what to hand off
The AI Engine answers what it can and routes the rest to your team. It does not take payment and it does not answer food safety or allergen questions itself, it connects that guest to a person who can. Every call is summarized into a call-analysis PDF so you can see what guests were asking without listening to every recording.

The Content Engine keeps the whole site moving
Three articles, three social posts and two reels a week, plus your Google Business Profile.
The problem it solves
Posting, filming and keeping the Google listing current is a job nobody in a kitchen has time for, so it happens in bursts and then stops.
What you have to do
Nothing. Send us anything you want promoted and it goes into the schedule.
Marketing that runs without you writing a caption
The Content Engine publishes three researched articles a week, three social image posts a week and two reels a week, all tied back to your menu, specials and location pages. You are not the one drafting posts at midnight or trying to remember what you meant to promote this week.
Your Google Business Profile stays current too
Hours, photos and posts on your Google Business Profile are managed as part of the Content Engine, so the listing guests actually see in search results matches what is on your site. Everything points back to the same site, the same menu and the same ordering and reservation links, so momentum compounds instead of scattering across disconnected accounts.

The compliance pages that ship with your site
Every site we build comes with these, written for your restaurant rather than pasted from a generator. They help you meet common requirements in the United States; they are not legal advice, and we are not your lawyer.
Privacy policy and terms
Written for your site and kept in plain language, so a guest can read what happens to an enquiry form submission without a law degree.
A cookie notice that actually gates scripts
a cookie notice with consent that actually gates the scripts it names. A banner that blocks nothing is worse than no banner, so ours holds the tags until a visitor chooses.
Built with WCAG 2.2 AA in mind
Contrast, focus states, keyboard operation, tap target sizes and text that scales. Helps you meet common accessibility expectations; it is not a legal certification.
Messaging consent done properly
A2P 10DLC registration and TCPA consent wording on text message opt-ins, so the text messages your AI Engine sends are registered and the opt-in wording says what it should.
Somewhere for your own disclosures
A consistent, visible place for the dietary, allergen and sourcing information your kitchen publishes. You own the content; we build the page it lives on.
What owners notice once the features are running
Getting the restaurant reservations wording right mattered more to us than any visual choice. It explains what an inquiry achieves and is honest about what still needs a proper discussion. The awkward 'that's not quite what we meant' conversation has largely disappeared.

Every inquiry arrives with an owner, a status, and the context attached. The website and our way of working finally match.

Questions about what is included
Which plan do I need if I just want a good website?
The Daily Menu. It carries the whole site: menu pages, a page per location, reservation and ordering links, managed hosting, the domain, weekly detail updates, 5 revisions a month and 2 researched articles a week. The higher plans add the AI Engine and then the Content Engine rather than a better website.
What is the difference between the AI Engine and the Content Engine?
The AI Engine answers guests: an AI receptionist on calls, a chat widget on the site, and AI-handled messages on text, Messenger and Instagram, with call summaries. The Content Engine publishes for you: 3 researched articles a week, 3 social image posts, 2 reels and a managed Google Business Profile. One handles conversations, the other handles visibility.
Can guests book a table or order through the AI chat?
It points guests at your existing reservation and ordering platforms and can book appointments where your booking tool supports it. It does not take payment and it does not replace your point-of-sale or reservation system, so nothing changes for your staff or your reconciliation.
What is A2P 10DLC and why does it matter?
It is the registration US carriers require before a business can reliably send text messages to customers. We handle that filing as part of setting up the AI Engine, which is what stops messages from being silently blocked. Text opt-ins are written with the consent wording that US messaging rules expect.
Where do enquiries from the website end up?
In whatever CRM, spreadsheet or inbox you already use, connected by direct API, Zapier or Make and set up during onboarding. Different forms can route to different people or locations, so a catering request does not sit in the same pile as a lost-property email.
What counts as a revision?
Any change you send, at any size. A price fix, a seasonal menu rewrite, a new location page or a fresh set of photos each count as one. 5 are included every month, completed within 2 to 5 working days, and further revisions are a flat $20 each with no hourly billing.
Do you manage our Google Business Profile?
On The Tasting Menu, yes: hours, photos and posts are kept matching what is on the site, so the listing guests see in search agrees with your own pages. On the other plans we keep the site accurate and you or your team manage the listing.
Which compliance pages come with the website?
A privacy policy, terms, a cookie notice with consent that actually gates the scripts it names, and an accessibility-minded build aimed at WCAG 2.2 AA. Where you collect text message opt-ins we include the consent wording US messaging rules expect. These help you meet common requirements; they are not legal advice and we are not your lawyer.
Can I move up a plan later?
Yes, at any time, and the site does not get rebuilt. The AI Engine or the Content Engine is added on top of what already exists, and the launch work you have already paid for stays exactly as it is.
What is not included?
We do not run your reservation or ordering platform, take payments for you, manage paid advertising, write your dish descriptions or advise on food safety, allergens, nutrition or licensing. We build and run the website, and we link to the tools you already use for the rest.
