An intuitive platform that revolutionizes restaurant management and enhances the dining experience for both customers and staff.
Check out the demo video here:

The current restaurant management landscape faces inefficiencies in order processing, customer service, and overall operations. Restaurants struggle with:
- Manual order-taking processes.
- Long wait times.
- Inefficient communication between staff and kitchen.
These challenges result in decreased customer satisfaction, lower table turnover rates, and potential revenue loss.
The idea for Order Up stemmed from personal experiences with restaurant inefficiencies—long waits to catch the attention of waitstaff and frequent order errors. This inspired the creation of a solution to streamline restaurant operations and improve the dining experience.
Order Up addresses these issues through a user-friendly platform designed to:
- Simplify menu browsing and order placement for customers.
- Enable easy communication with waitstaff for requests and bill settlement.
- Offer waitstaff efficient tools for managing table orders.
- Provide the kitchen with real-time notifications to ensure timely and accurate meal preparation.
- Deliver analytics to restaurant management, including insights on sales, employee performance, and customer feedback.
Order Up is a web application offering:
-
Customers:
- QR code scanning to access the menu and place shared table orders.
- Real-time order updates and estimated preparation times.
- Traditional order placement through waitstaff if preferred.
-
Waitstaff:
- Notifications for new orders and tools to manage table orders efficiently.
- Real-time order confirmation and updates to customers.

Kitchen:

- Intuitive menu browsing and seamless order placement for customers.
- Streamlined order and kitchen management for staff.
- Advanced analytics to empower restaurant management to optimize operations.
- Frontend: React
