The Rustic Plate - Website Redesign
Challenge
The Rustic Plate was struggling with an outdated website that loaded slowly, performed poorly on mobile devices, and failed to convert visitors into diners. Their booking system was complicated and their stunning food photography was not showcased effectively.
Our Solution
We designed a modern, responsive website that prioritized mobile users and highlighted their cuisine through professional photography. We implemented a streamlined booking system that reduced the steps needed to make a reservation, and optimized site speed for better search engine rankings.
Results
Within three months of launch, The Rustic Plate saw a 65% increase in online bookings, a 40% reduction in bounce rate, and significantly improved search rankings for local dining queries. The new website created a digital experience that matched the quality of their in-restaurant experience.
"Our new website has transformed our business. Not only does it look beautiful, but the increase in online bookings has added significant revenue to our bottom line. Epicurean Digital understood exactly what we needed."

Café Lumière - Social Media Growth
Challenge
Café Lumière had exceptional food and a beautiful space, but almost no social media presence. Their posts were inconsistent, their photography was amateur, and they had no clear strategy for growing their following or driving foot traffic through digital channels.
Our Solution
We created a comprehensive content strategy focused on showcasing their unique French-Japanese fusion cuisine and cozy atmosphere. Using AI-powered scheduling tools, we established a consistent posting rhythm, developed branded templates, and implemented targeted hashtag strategies to reach local food enthusiasts.
Results
Over a three-month period, their Instagram following grew by 215%, engagement rates increased by 47%, and they attracted multiple influencer partnerships that further expanded their reach. Most importantly, they reported a noticeable increase in customers mentioning they discovered the café through social media.
"I was skeptical about investing in social media, but the results speak for themselves. Epicurean Digital turned our Instagram into our most powerful marketing tool, all while teaching our staff how to maintain it moving forward."

Ember Grill - Brand Identity Overhaul
Challenge
Ember Grill was opening their second location but lacked a cohesive brand identity. Their original logo was dated, they had inconsistent colors and fonts across materials, and nothing properly communicated their upscale grill concept focused on open-flame cooking.
Our Solution
We developed a complete visual identity system including a new logo, color palette, typography, and branded elements that evoked the warmth and sophistication of their cooking style. The system included templates for menus, signage, packaging, and digital assets to ensure brand consistency across all touchpoints.
Results
Post-rebrand surveys showed a 72% increase in brand recognition among target customers. The consistent brand identity has simplified their marketing production process, reduced design costs, and created a more premium perception that allows them to command higher price points in their new location.
"The branding exceeded our expectations in every way. Not only do we look more professional, but our staff feels more confident representing a brand with such a clear identity. It's been transformative for our business expansion."

Seafood Harbor - Menu App Development
Challenge
Seafood Harbor had a complex, frequently changing menu that required constant reprinting. Their seafood specials changed daily based on fresh catch availability, and they struggled to communicate these options effectively. Seasonal items and price adjustments caused additional printing expenses and delays.
Our Solution
We developed a digital menu app with QR code integration that allowed for real-time updates and dynamic pricing. The app highlighted daily specials, included high-quality images of dishes, offered filtering by dietary requirements, and collected valuable ordering data. We implemented multi-language support for their diverse clientele.
Results
The digital menu increased average order value by 38% through strategic item placement and upselling features. Printing costs decreased by 59%, and the analytics data provided insights that helped optimize their menu offerings based on popularity and profitability. Customer satisfaction scores improved due to the enhanced visual experience.
"The menu app has revolutionized how we operate. We can update prices or daily specials in seconds, and the beautiful photography has customers ordering items they might never have tried from a text-only menu. The ROI has been remarkable."
