A full online-ordering system for your restaurant · one dollar a day

Diners see the menu. Your phone and the order tablets are the iceberg.

Friday at seven. The phone rings during the rush, two delivery tablets chirp on the counter, and each order gives away a cut of the bill. I build a website with your menu and the whole engine behind it: online ordering with no commission, tickets that print in the kitchen, receipts and "order ready" texts. I run the backend so you can run the kitchen.

Free. You keep the one-page plan either way$0 commission on orders

Your menu, your hours, your orders. On your own domain, not an app's.

Most restaurants don't need another app. They need their orders back.

The PDF menu is from 2019, the hours online are last season's, and the delivery apps keep 20–30% of every order. Each of those lands on you, or on whoever answers the phone. Here's what moves underneath instead.

01 Online ordering

Customers order and pay on your site. You keep the margin.

Ordering is built in, with $0 commission from me, ever. You pay only card processing, 2.65% + 25¢ per order. Orders go straight to you, and so do your customers' details.

Off your plate
  • Handing 20–30% of each order to an app
  • Writing phone orders on a pad during the rush
02 The kitchen

Orders print straight to the kitchen printer.

Tickets come out on your printer (CloudPRNT), so the line sees the order the moment it's paid. No tablet farm on the counter.

Off your plate
  • Reading orders off a tablet and rewriting them
  • Three devices chirping at once
03 Receipts & texts

Receipts by email, "order ready" by text. On their own.

Customers get a receipt the moment they pay and a text when their food is ready. New orders can buzz your phone too.

Off your plate
  • "Is my order ready yet?" calls
  • Hunting for a receipt a customer lost
04 Menu, hours & site

New dish on Thursday? Send a photo of the menu. It's live that day.

A properly designed menu, not a blurry PDF. Clear hours and a map, built so Google can find you. English plus a second language if your guests read one. Hosting, updates and fixes are my job, not yours.

Off your plate
  • Guests at a locked door because the hours were wrong
  • Learning a website builder at midnight
  • $1,999New website, one-time. Design, menu build, photos and your domain connected.
  • $999Or transfer your existing site, one-time. Free SEO and Google Business tidy-up included.
  • $1 a dayHosting and updates, billed $30 a month. Menu changes included.
  • $0Commission on online orders. Only card processing, 2.65% + 25¢.

Add-ons are $1 a day each: text notifications for new orders, email marketing I run for you, timesheets and staff scheduling, and a daily sales report in your inbox each morning. Kitchen printer wiring is $499 one-time. No subscriptions stacked on subscriptions. Start with your menu ↗

The tip, and what's under it.

LAMOSE website
17,000+custom orders a year

TipA shop for custom-engraved drinkware.

UnderneathOne order queue across every store, proofs and mockups, engraving files, shipping labels, and an AI inbox. It's the same idea as a kitchen: the order arrives once and goes straight to the people making it. I run it on the system I'd build for you.

30 minutes, live this week, then I keep it running.

Day 1 · 30 minutesThe free call

We look at how orders reach you today and what the apps cost you. You leave with a one-page plan and the price.

This weekBuild & connect

Snap photos of your paper menu. That's all I need. You get a preview link, and nothing to pay until you love it.

Every day afterI keep it running

Hosting, the ordering backend, menu updates and fixes for $1 a day. You text, I answer.

Questions

I don't have professional photos. Is that okay?

Yes. Phone photos of your dishes and your room work well, and good light helps. If you have none yet, I use tasteful images until you do.

What if my menu changes often?

Send me a photo of the new menu, or a text. I update it, usually the same day. Menu changes are included in the $1 a day.

Can you add online ordering?

It's built in: customers order and pay on your site with $0 commission, and tickets print in your kitchen. If you'd rather keep Skip, DoorDash, Toast or Square for now, I can link to them too.

What about reservations?

If you use OpenTable or Resy, I add a booking button. If you take reservations by phone, I make your number easy to tap on every page.

What does the $1 a day cover?

Hosting, the ordering backend, menu updates and fixes, billed $30 a month. No contract. Message me any time and I'll wind it down, with no cancellation fee.

Can my site be in two languages?

Yes. English plus one more, menu included: French, Spanish, Vietnamese, Punjabi, Chinese, Korean and others.

I have a website but it's outdated. Can you replace it?

Yes. A fresh build is $1,999, or $999 to move your existing site onto the platform with a free SEO and Google Business tidy-up. I handle the switchover so nothing breaks.

Come up for air

Someone's deciding where to eat right now. Be the place that's easy to order from.

Give me 30 minutes. We'll look at what the apps and the phone are costing you, and you'll leave with a plan and a price, whether you hire me or not.
