The challenge
The restaurant's old site didn't reflect the real menu, wasn't built to be found on Google, and gave the owner no way to actually manage it. Guests had no reliable way to see current pricing, hours, or the full food and bar menu, and inquiries had nowhere real to go.
What I built
A fully custom Next.js site built from a design mockup to production, including a complete digital menu transcribed and cross-checked against the restaurant's real printed menu, a working contact form, and full SEO groundwork so the site is actually found.
