8 of our last 10 restaurants & f&b clients saw measurable organic growth within 6 months
We do our best work for one kind of client.
Not every brand is the right fit for how we work. Here’s how to tell if you are.

EQUALLY IMPORTANT
We are probably not the right fit if...
You need results in 30 days. Web Design doesn't work that way, and anyone who says it does is lying to you.
You want to own the strategy internally and outsource only execution. We work as strategic partners, not vendors.
Your budget is under $2,000/month. We can't do our best work at that level.
The brands we work best with are past the “let’s try Web Design” phase. They know it works. They want it done properly.
San Francisco restaurants & f&b is a different game.
We’ve run Web Design here. We know what it takes.
95,000 SF restaurants compete online. Yours shouldn't rely on Yelp.
San Francisco's restaurant scene is hyper-competitive and platform-dependent. Most operators spend $7,200/month on digital marketing but own almost nothing—no email list, no control over search presence, and zero leverage against Yelp's dominance. Delivery and catering searches are fracturing across channels, making a unified, conversion-focused website the only reliable asset you control. Restaurants that own their digital presence (not just their social followers) are capturing 3–4× more repeat customers.
The 3 places San Francisco restaurants & f&b brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 restaurants & f&b brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
40% of catering inquiries came via phone. They had no way to qualify leads before responding, and half-completed inquiries never converted. Their website was a static menu with no reservation or inquiry capture.
Built a dedicated catering landing page with menu filters, guest-count calculator, and proposal request form integrated to their email system

You shouldn’t have to wonder what your agency is doing with your money.
Every Friday, you get a Loom from your strategist. Not a report — a walkthrough. What changed, what we’re doing about it, what to expect next week. Several clients have told us it’s the first time Web Design has ever made sense to them.
From audit to measurable growth, step by step
Your website becomes your primary customer acquisition and retention asset. Within 6 months, you'll own a growing email list of repeat customers, rank for delivery and catering searches in your neighborhood, and have a predictable pipeline of high-margin bookings—all independent of platform algorithm changes.
Research & Competitive Audit
We analyze how your competitors in SoMa, the Financial District, and the Mission rank for delivery, catering, and local search queries. We audit Yelp, Google, and TripAdvisor to identify the exact keywords your website needs to own. We also map your current customer journey and identify drop-off points.
Strategy & Information Architecture
We build a site structure optimized for the three revenue drivers: reservations, delivery orders, and catering inquiries. Every page is designed to answer a specific search query and move visitors toward conversion. We prioritize mobile design (70% of San Francisco food searches are mobile).
Design & Development
We build a fast, conversion-focused site with integrated reservations, menu showcases, delivery CTAs, and catering inquiry forms. Every element is designed for clarity and action. We integrate your POS, reservation system, and email marketing tool so customer data flows automatically.
SEO & Local Optimization
We optimize for local search (Google Business Profile, schema markup) and delivery/catering keywords. We build internal links to funnel search traffic toward your highest-margin services. We set up Google Search Console and Analytics to track which queries drive conversions.
Launch, Training & Optimization
We launch your site, train your team on updating menus and managing inquiries, and begin tracking performance. We monitor email signup rates, reservation conversions, and catering inquiry quality for the first 30 days and optimize based on real data.
The honest difference
We’re not going to call other agencies bad. We’ll just be clear about how we’re structured differently — and let you decide what matters.

What this typically looks like for a San Francisco restaurants & f&b brand
The median restaurants & f&b client after 6 months
A data-driven audit of the 12 essential elements your website needs to convert visitors into reservations, delivery orders, and catering inquiries—plus how your competitors are using them.
Median result across 12 restaurants & f&b Web Design case studies. Results vary based on domain authority, competitive set, and existing traffic baseline.
“We had a 68% mobile drop-off rate. After the redesign, 31%. If your agency can't tell you your mobile conversion rate, get a new one.”

“They briefed us on conversion psychology before touching a single wireframe. That changed how we thought about what a website is actually for.”
Oscar B.
Founder · Professional Services
“Every decision was tied to a metric. Every A/B test was documented. We now have a site that gets better every quarter because the data is actually being used.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long before we see results?
Initial conversion wins (email signups, reservation increases) typically appear within 6–8 weeks. Catering and delivery ranking improvements accelerate after 120 days as your site collects search authority. We provide weekly performance dashboards so you see traction in real time.
Do you handle Yelp optimization too?
No, and that's intentional. Yelp owns your reviews and relationship; we can't change that. What we do is make your website a better alternative for customers who want to book or order directly. The goal is reducing your dependency on Yelp, not competing with it on Yelp's terms.
What if we already have a website?
We'll audit it against our restaurant-specific conversion checklist. Most San Francisco restaurant sites are static brochures—redesigning for catering landing pages, direct delivery, and email capture typically increases conversion 2–4x without rebuilding from scratch.
Can you integrate with our POS and reservation system?
Yes. We integrate with Toast, Square, OpenTable, Resy, and most regional systems. Customer data flows automatically from website bookings and orders into your POS so your team has no manual data entry. Email automation also pulls customer info for personalized follow-up.
What's included in your retainer?
Design, development, SEO, local search optimization, and monthly performance tracking are included in setup. Ongoing retainers ($3,500–$7,500/month depending on scope) cover menu updates, email campaign strategy, monthly optimization, and keyword ranking monitoring. Retainers are optional—many clients do setup only and manage content in-house.
