What a new website should do for your business
Your site won’t be my first. Since 2016 I’ve delivered 154 Upwork jobs for more than 100 clients, and 94 of them were WordPress and Divi websites: new builds, redesigns and rebuilds for a market research firm, a real estate brokerage, a reading program, a trade association and other web agencies, among others. Every one is listed on my Upwork profile.

A written, fixed quote after a free consultation. Sites start at $2,500 and the number does not creep once we agree on it.
One person, start to finish
I design it, build it, write it and launch it. When you call with a question, you reach the person who made the last change.

What a restaurant website has to do for someone deciding where to eat
Nobody browses a restaurant website for fun. They land on it with a question. Is it open right now? What’s on the menu and what does it cost? Can I order for pickup? Can I get a table at seven? Is there parking? If the answer takes more than a tap or two, they go back to the map and pick someone else.
Most restaurant sites I see make people work for those answers. A video loads before anything else. The menu is a PDF that has to be zoomed and dragged. The hours on the site say one thing and Google says another. The order button goes to a delivery app that takes a cut, while the restaurant’s own ordering page is hidden in the footer.
A good restaurant website is fast and plain on purpose. Hours, address, phone, menu, order and reserve, all on the first screen of a phone. The photos and the story come after.
Restaurant web design with a real menu, and order and reservation buttons that go where you already take them
The menu goes on the page as text. Sections, dishes, a line on each, prices, and marks for vegetarian, gluten-free or spicy if you use them. Text loads fast, it reads at any size, and you can change a price without sending a new file to anyone. If you want a printable version too, it sits as a download beside it.
The order and reserve buttons link to the system you already use. If your online ordering runs through your point-of-sale, like Toast, or your reservations through OpenTable or Resy, the buttons go straight to your page on that platform. You keep one system for orders and tables, and your staff doesn’t learn anything new. Your direct ordering link gets the big button. Delivery apps can sit underneath it for people who want them.
Then the pages that bring in bigger checks or regulars: private dining and catering, each with what you offer and a short inquiry form. An events page for trivia nights, live music, wine dinners and holiday menus. And a page per location if you have more than one, each with its own hours, phone and menu.
Questions to settle before you pay for a restaurant website
Who updates the menu when prices or dishes change?
You should be able to, from your phone, between services. I build the menu as a set of entries: a section, a dish name, a description and a price. Changing a price is editing one field. Pulling a dish is unchecking it. Adding a seasonal item is filling in a short form. The page layout never changes, so nobody can break the design by accident.
If your menu changes daily, like a chalkboard of specials, that gets its own small block on the homepage that you overwrite each morning. The regular menu stays put. If you’d rather hand updates off entirely, send them to me and my website management plan covers it.
How do I keep the hours on my website and on Google the same?
Treat them as one job. Your website doesn’t update your Google Business Profile, and the profile doesn’t update your website, so every hours change gets made in both places on the same day. Holiday closures, a patio season, a kitchen that closes an hour before the bar: each one goes on the profile’s special hours and on the site.
I put the hours in one spot on the site, so a change there updates the header, the contact page and every location page at once. That leaves two places to change, not six. If your profile has the wrong hours, categories or menu link today, my Google Business Profile optimization fixes it for $400 one time.
What should the homepage show first on a phone?
Whether you’re open, and the three buttons people came for: menu, order, reserve. Then your address with a link to directions, and the phone number as a tap-to-call button. That’s the first screen. Under it, a few real photos of the food and the room, what kind of place you are in one or two sentences, and this week’s events or specials.
What stays off the first screen: autoplay video, a pop-up for the newsletter, and a slideshow that moves before anyone can read it. They all slow the page down on a weak signal in a parking lot, which is exactly where a lot of people look you up.
What happens to my current restaurant website and its address?
You keep the domain, because it’s printed on your menus, your door and your takeout bags, and Google knows it. If your current site has pages that people find through search, like a catering page or a menu page, I map each old address to its new one so those visits land in the right place after launch. If the current site sits inside a platform package that owns the domain, we move the domain into your name first.

Kara D.
I hired Ryan to help improve the SEO of my business website and he has been so easy to work with from the time I submitted my inquiry through the finishing touches. He is extremely responsive, organized in his approach, and thoughtful in his execution. I had many questions that I threw at Ryan, and he was able to answer them all, which made me feel really good about the entire process. Since the initial work started, I have added on more page updates because I am already seeing positive results. I look forward to continuing to work with Ryan and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to other business owners that I know!

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about my web design process and pricing
How much does a restaurant website cost?
Mine start at $2,500, with a fixed written quote before I start. A single location with one menu sits near that floor. More locations, several menus, an events calendar and private dining pages add to it.
Can I change the specials and events myself?
Yes. Specials, events and the menu are set up as simple entries you edit from a browser or your phone, without touching the layout. If you'd rather not, my website management plan covers changes like these for $99 a month.
Do you take the food photos?
No. I work by phone, video and email, so I don't shoot on site. Good daylight photos from a phone work well, and if you want a professional set, a local food photographer is worth the money. I'll tell you what shots the site needs before they come out.
Do you build websites for bars and breweries too?
Yes. The same rules apply, plus a few extras. A tap list or drink menu you can update when a keg changes, an events page for trivia and live music, and a clear line on whether kids and dogs are welcome.
Can the website sell gift cards?
Yes, if your point-of-sale or ordering system offers them. I put a gift card button on the site that goes to that system's page, so sales and balances stay in one place instead of a second tool you have to reconcile.
