Sound Familiar?

Every restaurant owner we talk to
hits the same walls.

Friday and Saturday sell out — Tuesday and Wednesday we're at 30% capacity.

OpenTable and DoorDash fees are eating margin we can't afford to lose.

We launched a new menu and nobody outside our regulars knows it exists.

The private dining room sits empty most weeks — it should be a profit center.

A new spot opens every month and the buzz cycle keeps moving on without us.

What We Deliver

A full Meta ads system.
Built for restaurants.

01

Weeknight Traffic Campaigns

Tuesday–Thursday campaigns with day-specific offers (industry night, wine specials, prix fixe) targeted to diners within your real trade radius.

02

Direct Reservation Ads

Push bookings straight to your own reservation system — Resy, Tock, or your site — so covers don't come with a per-head third-party fee.

03

Private Dining & Events

Campaigns targeting office managers, event planners, and party hosts in your zip for rehearsal dinners, holiday parties, and corporate buyouts.

04

Menu Launch Campaigns

New menu, seasonal rotation, or chef's tasting — launch creative that re-engages past guests and reaches new diners while it's still news.

05

Guest Retargeting & Winback

Diners who browsed the menu but didn't book, and past guests who haven't returned in 60 days, get a reason to come back this week.

Wednesday used to be our worst night — now it runs at 75% capacity on the wine-night campaign alone. And the private dining room is booked three weeks out.— Marcus D., Owner

Restaurant Owner FAQ

Questions we hear every week.

How much should a restaurant spend on Meta ads?+

Most full-service restaurants see strong results at $1,200–$2,500/mo in ad spend. Below $1,000/mo, Meta doesn't get enough conversion signal to optimize reservation campaigns properly.

Can you drive reservations without OpenTable fees?+

Yes — that's the point. We send traffic to your own booking system and set up the Conversions API so we optimize on actual completed reservations, not clicks.

What creative do you need from us?+

Ideally nothing. One 2-hour shoot — plates landing, the pass during service, the dining room full — gives us a month of ads. Food is the highest-performing creative category on Meta.

Can you fill specific slow services, like weekday lunch?+

Yes. Campaigns run on dayparted schedules — lunch ads to nearby office workers at 10–11am, dinner ads to couples in the evening. Each slow service gets its own campaign layer.

We're a new restaurant — does this work for openings?+

Openings are where Meta ads work hardest. A pre-opening awareness push plus a first-30-days reservation campaign builds the regular base most restaurants take a year to find.
