The full-service restaurant template: menu, reservations, atmosphere. Structured menu sections (no PDF), a booking flow wired to the built-in reservations system, and imagery that sells the evening. Dark, unhurried and serif - if that is not your room, try Pizzeria, Sushi Bar, Brunch Cafe or Steakhouse, which are the same machinery in four different tempers.
Keep the menu as structured text with prices - it is what Google indexes for "menu" searches and what mobile users can actually read. Set your real table capacity and hours in the booking settings, and lead the gallery with your three best dishes, not the empty dining room.
Most restaurant sites are built as brochures and judged as booking tools. A visitor arrives wanting a table on Friday, and everything else on the page is decoration until that question is answered.
A PDF cannot be read comfortably on a phone, cannot be indexed usefully and cannot be updated in thirty seconds when the kitchen changes a dish. Structured menu sections solve all three, and presenting your menu walks through the setup.
This template ships with the reservation flow wired in, so a visitor picks a date, a time and a party size rather than filling in a form and waiting. Service times, covers and the notice you need are configured as described in availability and hours.
Dishes sell the food; the room sells the evening. A diner choosing between two restaurants for an anniversary is deciding where they want to sit, and that decision is made from a single wide photograph more often than from a menu.
Replace the demo menu with your own, set your service times, and the page stops describing the restaurant and starts filling it. The full build sequence is in the restaurant website guide.

It comes with 4 ready-made pages: Home, Menu, About, Contact.
It is set up for Online Booking, Menu, Gallery. Those are built in rather than add-ons, so they work from the moment the site is created.
It arrives with 2 bookable services (Lunch reservation, Dinner reservation), so you are editing a working business rather than filling in an empty layout. Replace the demo content with your own as you go.
