How to get your restaurant online and receive direct orders
What a restaurant's online storefront is, why it's worth having, and how to get one with nothing for your customers to download.
Sushi online: build-your-own boxes and all-you-can-eat, ordered right
Sushi menus are long and orders are complex: 40 mixed pieces, no salmon, extra wasabi. Your own ordering system has the customer build it, so it arrives written correctly.
- No commission per order
- No download for customers
The problem
Long orders, easy mistakes
Taking a 60-piece order with exclusions over the phone is an invitation to get it wrong. And a mistake on sushi can't be fixed: you remake the platter and lose expensive product.
How you solve it
With your own online storefront
- Build-your-own boxes: the customer chooses piece by piece, you get the exact list
- Exclusions and allergens flagged directly by whoever orders
- A long menu organised by category, easy to browse
- No commission on the order
A concrete example
The 48-piece platter
The customer builds their platter choosing from categories, removes raw fish for one guest and adds a note. You get a precise list, with no phone calls to double-check.

Frequently asked questions
Can I manage all-you-can-eat?
You can build combo menus with selection rules: for each box you decide how many courses it includes, which categories the customer can pick from and how many choices in each. You can make certain products mandatory, cap the maximum per order or per person, exclude others from a given deal, and trigger a surcharge past a set quantity. The customer can only build valid combinations, and you get the exact list of what they chose.
Can I flag raw fish and allergens?
Yes, dish by dish.
