Interesting article. I never really have thought about what I want from a restaurant page. I guess I assume the website will reflect the 'feel' of the place.... a menu is good too, as long as it includes prices.  Probably more important to rate well on 3rd party sites and reviews than anything given the social media times.

I hate restaurant websites.  I want hours, locations and menu.

I agree, restaurant websites in general are very poor.

Reading in another pizza forum recently, they are seen as a "necessary evil"

Domino's in the UK alone are reporting £1 million ($1.6m) A DAY from website sales, with 704 stores thats on average of £1420 A DAY from each stores.  To the independent Pizza owners out there, YOU ARE MISSING OUT ON HUGE MONEY, your losing customers, and you will find it harder to get new ones.

The big boys are loving the independent pizza owners apathy with your websites, i would say 95% are poorly designed, flash based, non indexable, un twitable, unlikeable facebook and non ordering websites.

What you need is an all in one solution!!!
