A restaurant-specific site, priced in INR
Squarespace makes beautiful templates, but for Indian restaurants it has real drawbacks: it's billed in USD (roughly ₹1,300–1,900/month, no native INR tier) and Squarespace Payments isn't available in India, so e-commerce needs a third-party gateway. It's also a general DIY builder with no menu parsing. Dinehere is purpose-built for restaurants and priced for India: Dinehere is ₹299/month (or ₹2,990/year — 2 months free) in INR, your menu AI-parsed from photos, live in about 10 minutes.
