Websites for Restaurants that ring the phone.
Diners decide where to eat from a phone: they check the menu, the hours, and whether they can get a table tonight. We build restaurant websites that put those three things one tap away, like the site we built for The Hampshire in Covington.

Visit the siteThe problem
Why most restaurants lose calls online.
A menu posted as a blurry PDF or a photo of the chalkboard sends hungry people to the place down the street.
Hours, holiday closures, and specials that change weekly go stale when every edit needs a developer.
Private dining and party inquiries get lost in voicemail instead of landing as complete requests.

Questions
Websites for restaurants: common questions.
How much does a website for a restaurant cost?
A restaurant website is $1,000 to launch plus $100/month for managed hosting, maintenance, and small updates. That covers a custom mobile-first site with click-to-call and a quote form; photography, extra pages, and a logo are available as add-ons.
Will my restaurant show up on Google?
Every build includes local SEO foundations and help setting up or optimizing your Google Business Profile, so people searching for a restaurant near them can find you and call you. We do not promise rankings, and anyone who does is guessing.
How fast can the site launch?
Most sites go live in 1 to 2 weeks once we have your details, photos, and services. We handle the build, hosting, and setup so you can keep running the business.
Do you work with restaurants outside the Northshore?
Yes. GatorByte is based on the Northshore in Louisiana and works with restaurants across the Gulf South, from Alabama and the Florida Panhandle to central Texas. We meet in person across South Louisiana and work remotely everywhere else. You work directly with the people building your site.
Can I update my own menu and hours?
Yes. We set up menus as real text on the page, not a PDF, so Google can read them and guests can read them on a phone. You can send us changes as part of your monthly plan, or we can build an admin screen for menus and events like the one The Hampshire uses.
Do you replace OpenTable, Resy, or my online ordering system?
No. If you already take reservations or online orders through a service, we connect your site to it with clear buttons on every page. The website's job is to get the guest there with as few taps as possible.
