Restaurant Directory & Booking Platform
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I want to launch a web platform that takes its cues from https://tabelog.com/en/ but keeps the scope lean and focused on three essentials: a clean menu showcase, an attractive photo gallery for each venue, and—most importantly—a reservation engine that actually reaches the restaurateur.
Here’s the flow I have in mind. Visitors browse or search a restaurant, land on a profile page, scan through photos, then open a tabbed menu that lists dish names, short descriptions, and prices. When they decide to book, the reservation form asks for party size and time, processes a per-guest booking fee of roughly $1–1.50 through a mainstream payment gateway (Stripe or PayPal are fine), and instantly fires the confirmation to the owner’s email and WhatsApp number—both, not one or the other. This dual notification is non-negotiable; I want owners replying in real time.
An admin area should let me add or edit restaurants, upload photos, and manage menus without touching code. If you can bundle a simple dashboard for the owners themselves that’s a bonus, but not required on day one.
The deliverable is a fully responsive, production-ready site with:
• Public listing and search
• Restaurant detail pages featuring gallery plus menu (dish names, descriptions, prices)
• Reservation workflow with payment capture and dual notifications
• Admin interface for content management
Once everything is live and tested, hand over the source, database schema, and a short deployment guide.
