Introduction

In today’s digital-first landscape, restaurants compete not only through their culinary craft but also through the strength of their technology. By 2025, customers expect convenience, speed, and a smooth online journey whenever they place an order. For small and mid-sized restaurant owners, this makes a reliable system for managing online food orders essential, both for attracting new diners and encouraging repeat business.

myRestro addresses this need with purpose. As one of the most capable and cost-efficient restaurant management platforms in the U.S., it empowers owners to increase online food orders, reduce reliance on third-party delivery marketplaces, and improve profitability, all without burdensome subscription costs or setup fees.

This comprehensive guide explores how myRestro’s online ordering platform helps restaurants boost revenue, strengthen customer loyalty, and achieve sustainable growth in an increasingly competitive food delivery environment.

Why Online Food Ordering Is Essential for Restaurant Growth

According to recent data, over 70% of U.S. consumers prefer ordering food online rather than calling or dining in. Platforms like UberEats, DoorDash, and Grubhub dominate the market, but their 20–30% commissions cut deeply into restaurant profits.

Small business owners need a better way to offer online food ordering without losing control or revenue.

That’s where myRestro’s free restaurant software offers a game-changing solution, helping restaurants take charge of their own branded online orders while saving thousands in commissions each month.

1. Create Your Branded Online Ordering System

The first step to increasing online orders is to make your restaurant stand out from the crowd. Third-party delivery apps promote dozens of competitors side-by-side, but myRestro gives you your own white-label online ordering website with your brand, your colors, your logo, and your full menu.

This creates a personalized, trustworthy experience for your customers. They order directly from you, not from an app that takes a big cut of your earnings.

Example: A LA café that switched to myRestro saw a 37% increase in repeat orders within three months because customers preferred ordering directly from the restaurant’s own site instead of a delivery app.

2. Run Free Digital Marketing Campaigns with myRestro

Increasing online food orders isn’t just about having a website, it’s about making sure people can find it. That’s why myRestro provides $1,500 worth of free digital marketing during your 90-day free trial.

This includes:

• SEO optimization for local restaurant visibility.
• Social media promotions to boost awareness.
• Google Business Profile enhancements for better search ranking.

By driving organic traffic to your online ordering platform, myRestro helps restaurants appear at the top of Google search results, resulting in more direct orders and less reliance on high-commission apps.

3. Use Customer Data to Drive Repeat Orders

Third-party platforms keep customer data to themselves, preventing restaurants from building direct relationships. myRestro changes that.

With myRestro’s restaurant CRM, you have full access to customer data, allowing you to:

• Send promotional offers to previous customers.
• Offer personalized discounts on favorite items.
• Launch loyalty programs to reward frequent buyers.

This data-driven approach turns one-time customers into repeat patrons, significantly increasing your overall online order volume.

4. Encourage Direct Ordering Through Promotions

A great way to shift customers from third-party apps to your own platform is by offering exclusive deals for direct online orders.

With myRestro, you can:

• Create limited-time discounts for direct website orders.
• Highlight “order direct and save” messages on social media.
• Offer coupon codes or free delivery for online orders placed through your myRestro platform.

Not only does this grow your digital presence, but it also trains customers to choose your restaurant’s direct channel over third-party apps helping you save on commissions while boosting sales.

5. Integrate myRestro with Third-Party Delivery Apps

Many restaurants worry about losing exposure if they move away from third-party delivery platforms. That’s why myRestro offers hybrid integration.

You can:

• Stay listed on DoorDash, UberEats, and Grubhub for visibility.
• Simultaneously accept direct online orders through myRestro.

This hybrid approach ensures you get traffic from every source while still building your own loyal customer base.

6. Leverage Reviews and SEO to Build Trust

Positive reviews are one of the most effective ways to drive new online orders. myRestro’s integrated SEO and marketing tools help your restaurant show up higher on Google Maps, Yelp, and search results.

Encourage satisfied customers to leave reviews, and display them prominently on your website. This builds credibility and helps boost your organic ranking, leading to consistent traffic and more orders.

7. Use Real-Time Analytics to Improve Performance

One of the most underrated strategies to increase restaurant orders is data analysis. With myRestro’s built-in analytics dashboard, you can track:

• Most popular dishes.
• Peak ordering hours.
• Average ticket size.
• Repeat customer rate.

These insights help you plan promotions, adjust menus, and schedule staff more efficiently. Data-backed decisions lead to better service, happier customers, and higher revenue.

8. Save on Commissions and Operating Costs

Let’s talk about profits because every percentage matters. Third-party delivery apps can take up to $30 for every $100 earned.

With myRestro, you pay nothing during your 90-day free trial, and only a 10% commission per order afterward. There are no setup fees, no subscriptions, and no hidden charges.

That means you can invest your savings back into better ingredients, improved marketing, or staff incentives, all while earning more from every order.

9. Build a Future-Ready Restaurant with myRestro

The restaurant industry in 2025 is built on technology. Customers expect instant access, online menus, mobile checkout, and personalized offers. myRestro gives you all of this and more without the complexity or cost of traditional POS systems.

By combining free restaurant software, a white-label ordering platform, and integrated marketing, myRestro helps small restaurant owners build a brand that lasts.

Whether you’re managing a food truck, café, fine-dining restaurant, or multi-location chain, myRestro gives you the tools to increase your online food orders and grow sustainably.

The days of relying solely on phone calls or third-party apps are over. To truly increase online food orders, restaurant owners need their own branded, data-driven, and affordable digital solution.

With myRestro, you can attract more customers, improve their ordering experience, retain loyal diners, and save on commissions, all in one platform built for modern restaurants.

If you want to grow your restaurant’s online orders in 2025 and beyond, myRestro is the ultimate platform to make it happen.
