An AI restaurant website builder that does the gathering for you
Many website builders hand you a template and leave you to fill it in. Dineora works the other way around: it starts from what already exists about your restaurant. Type your restaurant's name, and Dineora finds its Google listing, then collects your menu, photos, opening hours and address from that listing, your current website, your Instagram or Facebook page and the ordering platforms you already use.
From there, the AI restaurant website builder does the heavy lifting:
- Your menu is rebuilt for you. AI reads your menu photos and turns them into an online menu. If the menu on Google is out of date, you can import yours from a link or from photos of your menu instead.
- The design and the copy are made for your restaurant. Visuals and text are generated from your own information, so the site describes your restaurant rather than a generic one.
- Nothing goes live without you. You review the site before publishing it, and online ordering only opens once you've checked the menu and confirmed your prices.
You hardly fill anything in: Dineora gathers the rest. You still create an account and answer a few questions (your address and phone number, whether you take bookings, whether you deliver, how many addresses you have), but you never start from a blank page. The first draft you see already carries your restaurant's name, menu and photos.
Restaurant website design made for your restaurant
Good restaurant website design makes people hungry, answers the practical questions (where, when, how much) and makes ordering or booking easy. Dineora generates your design, visuals and copy from your restaurant's own information. Instead of browsing restaurant website templates and filling one in yourself, you start from a finished draft built around your restaurant. Every site is mobile-friendly, since many guests look restaurants up on their phone.
Edit images with AI, undo anything
Want to change how an image on your site looks? Edit it with AI, preview the result before it's published and roll back without spending a credit. Every Dineora website includes image edits.
Live preview and earlier versions
You get a live preview of your website, and you can restore an earlier version if you liked it better.
A restaurant website with online ordering and bookings built in
A restaurant website earns its keep when visits turn into orders and covers. That's why every Dineora website includes online ordering and table bookings, as part of the same site and the same dashboard rather than a separate service you bolt on.
Commission-free online ordering
Customers order from an ordering page in your brand, with your menu, a basket, sizes, options and extras, and collect their order at your counter. Every new order reaches you by SMS or WhatsApp, by email and as a push notification, and Dineora takes no commission on your meals. Read more about the online ordering system for restaurants.
Table bookings that confirm themselves
Guests book a table on your website. You set your services and capacity and mark days as full or closed; guests get an automatic confirmation, a reminder the day before and a cancellation link, and you get an alert by WhatsApp, SMS or email. See the restaurant booking system.
Takeaways, cafes and food trucks
A takeaway website's main job is taking orders, and Dineora's comes with an ordering page, an alert for every new order by SMS or WhatsApp, email and push notification, and an orders screen with the details of every order. For a cafe or a food truck website, the essentials are the same: menu, photos, opening hours and a way to order, gathered from your Google listing to start with.
What comes with your restaurant website
Every Dineora website includes secure hosting (SSL and a CDN), a mobile-friendly site, basic SEO, online ordering, table bookings and a dashboard to run it all. Your site also has:
- Search basics. Page titles and descriptions, Restaurant and Menu structured data and a sitemap, so search engines understand what you serve. Nobody can promise you a position on Google, and Dineora doesn't.
- A multilingual site. Your site comes with a language switcher and automatic translation, and you can add more languages from your dashboard. Dish names and text inside images stay as they are.
- Your own domain. Connect the domain you already own step by step, with HTTPS included, or get a new one from your dashboard.
- Several addresses. If your restaurant has several addresses, each of them can appear on your site.
- Legal pages. A legal notice, a privacy policy and a translated cookie banner.
- Cookieless analytics. Visits, traffic sources, devices, your ordering funnel, abandoned carts, top dishes and peak hours.
- Your customer base. Contacts, consents and history belong to you, and you can export them as a CSV file at any time.
- QR codes. Print-ready codes for your menu, ordering, bookings, Google reviews and Wi-Fi, each with a scan count. More on the QR code menu.
You can also switch on: a professional email address on your domain, extra languages and image edits, removal of the “Powered by dineora.io” line, and marketing tools such as social publishing, covered on the restaurant marketing page.
How it works
Here's how to make a restaurant website with Dineora, from sign-up to publication.
- Create your account. This step comes first: the website builder opens right after it.
- Enter your restaurant's name and preferences. Type the name and Dineora finds your Google listing. Confirm your address and phone number, then say whether you take bookings, whether you deliver and how many addresses you have.
- Dineora builds your site from your Google listing, menu and photos. Your menu, photos, opening hours and address are collected automatically, your menu is rebuilt from its photos, and the design and copy are generated for your restaurant.
- Check your menu and go live. Review your online menu, fix a name or a price if needed, confirm it and publish your site. Online ordering opens once your menu is confirmed, and your QR codes are ready to print from your dashboard.
Your own restaurant website vs a marketplace listing
Delivery marketplaces are good at putting you in front of people who don't know you yet. Your own website does a different job: it's where regulars, neighbors and people who found you on Google order or book directly. Here's how they compare.
| Commission marketplace | Your Dineora website | |
|---|---|---|
| Commission on your meals | A percentage of each order | None |
| New orders | In the platform's tablet or app | By SMS or WhatsApp, email and push notification |
| Customer contacts | Mostly kept by the platform | Yours, exportable as CSV |
| Your brand | Your menu next to competitors in their app | Your name, your design, your domain |
| New customers | The platform sends you some | You bring them: Google, social media, QR codes |
Plenty of restaurants use both: a marketplace to be discovered, their own site for the customers who already know them. An ordering QR code on takeout bags and flyers is a simple way to bring regulars back to your direct channel. Your own site also stays put if you change your mind about a marketplace: your menu, your photos and your customer list remain where they are.
