Across Europe, roughly one restaurant in two has no website: quotes running into thousands of euros, sites that age badly and PDF menus frozen in 2019. With Ordinami.it the problem dissolves: every published venue receives an automatic mini-site — ordinami.it/r/your-venue — with name, photos, opening hours, tappable contacts and a preview of the menu with prices. It is indexable by Google, contains the structured data that search engines (and AIs) read, and never needs updating by hand: it is a reflection of your menu.
What your venue's page contains
The mini-site shows what a guest really looks for before choosing: your venue's cover image and logo, the opening hours with today highlighted, one-tap contacts — phone, WhatsApp, directions on Google Maps, Instagram — and a menu preview by category, with prices lined up like on a well-printed card. At the bottom, the button that leads to the full menu with photos.
If you collect reviews with the Ordinami.it star-rating system, the page also shows your average rating: social proof at first glance.
Built to please Google (and the AIs)
The page is rendered on the server — Google reads all of it, straight away — and includes the schema.org structured data that search engines use to understand a restaurant: type of business, opening hours in the official format, menu with dishes and prices, aggregate rating. It is the same data ChatGPT, Perplexity and the other answer engines read when someone asks "where should I eat tonight in…".
Every mini-site is added automatically to the ordinami.it sitemap: as soon as you publish your menu, your page starts existing for search engines, without you having to know what a sitemap is.
Where to use it: Google Business, social, WhatsApp
The mini-site is the perfect link for the "website" field of your Google Business Profile: whoever finds you on Maps lands on opening hours, contacts and a menu with prices — not on a blurry PDF. The same goes for your Instagram and TikTok bio, the WhatsApp Business welcome message and the QR code in your window.
And because the page is generated from the menu, it can never be "out of date": change a price in the back office and the site is already updated. The daily menu with its time slots, new dishes, December opening hours: all done once, in one place.
Traditional website vs included mini-site
A showcase website built by an agency costs €800 to €3,000, plus hosting fees and a call to the webmaster for every change. It makes sense for those who want a bespoke project; for most venues, what really matters is being found, with correct opening hours and an up-to-date menu — exactly what the mini-site does on its own, included in every plan from BASE at €29.90.
And if one day you also want your own domain and a bespoke site, nothing rules it out: the mini-site remains the place where the menu is always alive. In the meantime you can look at a real one: the sample venue's mini-site.
Frequently asked questions
Is the restaurant website included in the price?
Yes, in every plan: every published venue has its own page at ordinami.it/r/your-venue, with opening hours, contacts and a menu preview with prices. No extra cost.
Will the mini-site be found on Google?
Yes: the page is rendered on the server, joins the sitemap automatically and includes schema.org structured data (business, opening hours, menu, ratings) that Google and answer engines read.
Do I have to update it when I change the menu?
No: the mini-site is generated from the digital menu. Change a price or an opening time in the back office and the page is already updated.
Can I use it as the website for my Google Business Profile?
That is the perfect use: paste the link into the "website" field of your profile and whoever finds you on Maps sees opening hours, contacts and an up-to-date menu with prices.
Can I have my own domain too?
The mini-site lives at ordinami.it/r/your-venue. If you already have a domain you can point or link it to the page; many venues use the Ordinami link directly as their official website.
