Restaurant Ordering System
Project Overview
We built a comprehensive online restaurant ordering and management system designed to streamline food ordering, delivery, and in-house operations.
The platform enables customers to browse menus, place online orders, make reservations, and track deliveries, while restaurant owners can manage orders, menus, payments, and analytics through a powerful dashboard.

The main challenges included:
- Building a real-time order management system for multiple branches
- Integrating secure online payments with multiple gateways
- Designing a smooth and responsive experience for both mobile and desktop users
- Supporting delivery tracking with live status updates
Our Approach
We followed an agile, customer-first development strategy:
- Conducted user research with restaurant owners, staff, and customers
- Designed interactive prototypes to ensure a seamless ordering experience
- Developed a robust multi-branch architecture with real-time order syncing
- Integrated delivery tracking via Google Maps API
- Implemented secure payment flows supporting credit cards, wallets, and cash on delivery
Technologies Used
The system was built using:
- Expo React Native for a dynamic and responsive frontend (web and mobile)
- TypeScript for maintainable and scalable development
- Node.js & Express for backend APIs
- MongoDB for managing restaurant menus, orders, and customer data
- Stripe & PayPal for secure online payment processing
- WebSockets for real-time order status updates

Results
The platform achieved excellent results after launch:
- 35% increase in online orders within the first month
- Reduced in-house order processing time by 50%
- Enabled real-time tracking for over 1,200 daily deliveries
- Positive feedback from 92% of customers and restaurant staff
Conclusion
This project highlights our expertise in developing scalable, real-time, and customer-friendly food ordering solutions.
We are currently working with the client on Phase 2, which includes loyalty programs, AI-powered recommendations, and integration with food delivery partners.
