We build and keep up beautiful websites for independent restaurants. $49/month all-in. Email us the new specials; the site updates the same day.
What we build
A niche-tuned site for restaurants
Menu · reservations · hours · photos · one-email edits
The problem
You’re great at cooking, not at chasing a web guy.
A stale menu PDF that nobody can read on a phone.
Your menu changed three weeks ago. The PDF on the site did not. A hungry diner two blocks away bounces to the place that looks open and current.
Your Toast site looks like everyone else’s.
The stock POS site works, barely. Your neighborhood spot deserves to look like itself, not like the pizzeria across town running the same theme.
You’ve lost regulars to Instagram.
Specials live on stories; hours live on Google; the wine list lives on a chalkboard photo. A diner searching on Tuesday night gives up and orders Thai.
How it works
Email us the details.
Menu PDFs or photos of the chalkboard, hours, the story, who cooks, how you take reservations or orders. Fifteen minutes, one email.
We build the site.
Editorial layout, real food photography, prix-fixe or counter menu structured the way diners read it. Reservation and ordering CTAs point to whatever you already use — Resy, OpenTable, Toast, Square, Uber Eats.
We keep it fresh.
Weekly specials change? Chef’s off Tuesday? New patio hours in May? Email us. Usually live the same afternoon. You never log into anything.
An editorial menu, by email
Open it like a physical menu.
Every Lumo restaurant site treats the menu as the main event — not a PDF stuck in a sidebar.

FAQ
Questions we hear at the bar.
No. The reservation or ordering button on your site points to whatever you already use — Resy, OpenTable, Toast, SevenRooms, Square, Uber Eats, DoorDash. We are not a reservation system and we are not a POS. We are the site that sends diners there cleanly.
