What a restaurant website needs to fill tables
The few things diners look for, in the order they look.
Hours, location and a way to book, first
Most visits come from a phone, often minutes before deciding where to eat. Hours, the address with a map link and a reservation button belong at the top, not on another page.
A menu people can read on a phone
A real menu page, not a PDF to pinch and zoom. Prices included. Dietary notes clear.
Photos that look like the room
Food and the dining room, taken in your own light. Diners trust what looks real.
Found on Google and Maps
Your Google Business Profile matters as much as the site: correct hours, photos, the menu link and replies to reviews.
