The smarter choice for restaurant owners
Built for Restaurants, Not Everything
Wix is a general-purpose builder you assemble yourself. Dinehere is purpose-built for restaurants — at $39/month (or $390/year — 2 months free) with no contracts, no setup fees, and no per-order fees.
No Design Skills Needed
Wix's drag-and-drop editor still requires design skills. Dinehere's AI creates a beautiful, professional design automatically.
Launch in 10 Minutes, Not Days
Building a Wix site takes days of work. With Dinehere, upload your menu and launch your site the same day.
Common questions
Yes, absolutely. You will keep your domain registrar (where you bought the name), but you will point the DNS settings to Dinehere. We provide simple instructions on how to make this switch so you don't lose your web address.
Dinehere does not have a native reservation engine. Instead, we allow you to link out to third-party services like OpenTable, Resy, or a phone number. This keeps our platform simple and avoids locking you into a specific booking software.
No. Wix sites often break on mobile because elements are manually placed. Dinehere uses a responsive framework that automatically adjusts your menu and information to look perfect on any device without you ever needing to tweak the design.
On Wix, you have to log into the editor, select the text box, and format it. With Dinehere, you simply upload a photo of your new menu or update the text list, and the system formats it for you immediately.
No, we focus strictly on the website presence. We believe in doing one thing well: displaying your menu and location. For email marketing, we recommend specialized tools like Mailchimp rather than bundling it into your website builder.
Dinehere sites are structured specifically for local SEO (schema markup for menus, address, and hours). Many restaurants find their local ranking actually improves because the site is lighter, faster, and easier for Google to read than a heavy Wix site.
Dinehere creates a streamlined single-page experience. We include sections for your story (About), Menu, and Contact info. We do not support multi-page structures or blogs, as these often distract hungry customers looking for quick info.
Dinehere is $39/month, or $390/year (2 months free) — no contracts, no setup fees, and no per-order fees. Hosting is always included while you're subscribed, and you can cancel anytime. If you cancel, your site goes offline at the end of the billing period, but your domain stays yours.
Yes. While we don't process payments, you can add a prominent button that links directly to your UberEats, DoorDash, or Toast ordering page.
