Restaurant website: what it needs and what it costs
A restaurant website should show the menu with prices, real photos of the place and the dishes, opening hours, location and a direct way to order over WhatsApp, and it should work well on mobile. With DARVIA it costs 150, 250 or 400 USD depending on the package; the Complete package publishes the menu as a catalogue of up to 20 dishes with WhatsApp ordering.

Which package suits a restaurant?
| Package | Price | How the menu works | Who updates it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | 150 USD | One page with up to 6 sections, for example intro, menu, images, opening hours and contact | DARVIA, with each change quoted separately |
| Recommended | 250 USD | Up to 4 pages, with up to 6 editable services | You, from the panel: text, images, opening hours and contact |
| Complete | 400 USD | Catalogue of up to 20 dishes in 5 categories, with WhatsApp ordering | You, from the panel: prices, images and availability |
Can the website take bookings?
All three packages include the WhatsApp button and a form that sends enquiries to your email, so customers can ask for a table through those channels. A booking system with a calendar is an additional feature and is quoted in a separate proposal.
The Aurora demo shows what a booking flow with date, time and party size would look like. It is interface only: it does not send the data to any system.
What do the restaurant demos show?
- Aurora, restaurant demo: a home page with video of the venue and a carousel of scenes, and dedicated pages for the menu, a gallery filtered by space, atmosphere, kitchen and team, experiences and events.
- Arca Ilary, catering demo: a menu of 18 dishes in 5 categories with filters and prices, a catering quote builder for 10, 15 or 50 people and an order that ends in a pre-written WhatsApp message, in Spanish and English.
Both are advanced DARVIA demos, not client work. Their dishes, prices and contact details are sample content.
How long does it take?
Estimated delivery is 2–3 weeks for Basic, 3–4 for Recommended and 4–6 for Complete, counted from when we receive the deposit and all materials: the menu with prices, the photos and the business details.
