How It Works

1. 1

   Book a Call

   Thirty free minutes on your restaurant. There is nothing to prepare.

2. 2

   Get the Proposal

   If it looks like a fit, I look at what you have, even before you open. Then you get one written proposal with every item and every cost.

3. 3

   Launch

   With quick answers, you can have your new website in a week. Nothing goes live until you approve it.

• Why are you the right person for my restaurant's website?

  My great-grandfather started Boston Showcase Company in 1913. It designs and supplies restaurant kitchens in New England, and four generations later it is still our family's business. So restaurants are not new to me, but I am not inside yours. You see your restaurant from the kitchen and the floor. I see it the way a guest does, and I know what they look for before they choose where to go. I also cover the whole job, from brand and design to code, across 20+ client engagements. On Boston Showcase's old site, 12 of 15 people in a usability study could not find the full range of services. After my rebuild, every participant could. The five restaurants at the top of this page are made up. I designed them to show the range.

• How much does a restaurant website cost?

  With me, $6,000 as of November 2026, for one location and everything in the package. More locations or concepts are scoped together in one proposal. Half starts the work, and the other half is due before launch. Logo work is extra, and you pay any photographer directly. Monthly care after launch is optional. You get it all in writing, and you see every item it covers before you pay anything.

• How long does it take to build a restaurant website?

  If you answer quickly and decide quickly, you can have your new website in a week. I know restaurants get busy, and any gaps push the date back. If you have an opening or a busy season to hit, tell me on the first call and we plan back from that date.

• Can you build the website before we open?

  Yes. Tell me your opening date on the first call, and we plan back from it. If you do not have a logo or photos yet, we work out what you need first, and you see every cost before you decide. Your menu can keep changing after launch, because your team edits it.

• What should a restaurant website include?

  Start with what guests check first: your menu as real text, your hours and location, a clear way to book and photos of the real place. After that, it depends on how you make money. A room with private dining needs an events page with an inquiry form. A busy takeout counter needs ordering up front. If you sell gift cards or you are hiring, those get a clear link too. We choose what matters most for your restaurant on the first call.

• Do I need a website if I already have Google and Instagram?

  Some restaurants do fine without one. But Google and Instagram are where guests find you, and your website is where they check. It is also the one place you fully control, so your menu is current and your story is told your way. That is why I treat them as one job, so all of them say the same thing at launch.

• Will this help me show up on Google and get more reviews?

  It helps with what you control, but I cannot promise rankings, reviews or covers, and I would doubt anyone who did. We line up your Google Business Profile and listings, your menu and hours go on the site as real text, and you get a simple way to ask happy guests for reviews. What I can promise is what you can check: accurate facts and a working path to book at launch, and a plain report on what moved at 90 days.

• My ordering company already gives me a website. Why pay for this?

  It may be all you need, and if so I will tell you. Those sites are built to take orders. Yours is built to show guests what your restaurant is like. You keep your ordering and booking tools either way, because the site links straight to them.

• Does it work with Resy, OpenTable, Tock and Toast?

  Yes. You keep the tools you already use, and the site links straight to them. If event inquiries go through a tool like Tripleseat, the events page sends guests to its form. I test every reservation, ordering and inquiry link on a phone before launch.

• Can my team update the website and menu without you?

  Yes, and that is the point. Your site comes with a simple editor built for it. So your team can update copy, images, menus and hours the day they change, and nobody waits on me to take a dish off the menu. Your ordering menu stays in your ordering system, so a change to a dish goes in both. You also get a short video and a checklist when we hand it over. Changes to the layout or structure are a separate project, at a fixed price or billed hourly.

• What happens after my website launches?

  The first 14 days of fixes are included. After that, you choose. With monthly care, I look after your domain, hosting, email and the site itself, and you see the price in your proposal. If you would rather manage it yourself, I help you set everything up, scoped to what you need, and you get a guide for running it after launch. Then you pay your providers directly and nothing monthly to me. Either way, your team keeps Google and your listings current, and the handover checklist shows every place your hours appear.

• Am I locked in if we stop working together?

  No. You keep your domain, your accounts and your content. The domain and accounts are in your name from the start, so you never have to ask me for them. Monthly care is your choice, not a condition.

• Do I need professional food photos?

  Not always. I look at what you have before any proposal. If your photos are good, we use them. If a shoot would make the difference, I direct it, a photographer does it and you pay them directly. Either way, you know before you commit.

• Can you design our logo and brand too?

  Yes. We design the brand and the site together, so they feel like one thing from the start. Logo and identity work is added to the proposal, and you see the cost before you decide. If you already have a brand, or a studio is making one, I build from their files.

• Do you work with restaurants outside New Orleans?

  Yes. I am based in New Orleans and work with clients anywhere. Here, I come see the room in person. Anywhere else, we walk through it together on a call.
