Vibrant Vegetarian Website Build

I need a modern, high-performing site that puts our fresh, plant-based menu front and center. The overall look should be vibrant and colorful to match our restaurant’s lively brand, yet still feel clean and healthy.

Core objectives
• The menu pages must be visually striking, easy to navigate, and quick to load on both mobile and desktop.
• A polished photo gallery should celebrate our dishes and the restaurant’s atmosphere.
• Guests should be able to reserve a table in just a few clicks; I’m happy to use a proven plug-in, widget, or a custom booking form—whatever delivers the smoothest user experience.
• While online ordering and direct delivery are not mandatory for launch, please build with enough flexibility to add those modules later without a complete overhaul.

Key deliverables
1. Fully responsive website developed in the framework or CMS you feel is best (WordPress + Elementor, Webflow, custom React—open to recommendations).
2. Branded design assets that follow the vibrant color palette and typography we already use in-house.
3. Interactive menu section with category filters and clear pricing.
4. Image-optimised photo gallery with lightbox or similar effect.
5. Table-booking functionality integrated and tested.
6. Basic SEO setup (clean URLs, meta tags, schema for restaurant).
7. Handover package: source files, admin credentials, and a short how-to guide so our staff can update menu items and images.

Acceptance criteria
• Pages score 90+ on Google PageSpeed for mobile.
• All major browsers display the site consistently.
• Booking notifications reach our email without fail.
• No critical accessibility errors flagged by Lighthouse.

Please include links to two or three live sites that best showcase your restaurant or food-related work. Indicate your preferred tech stack and an estimated timeline from kickoff to launch.
