Problem
Many local restaurants live on third-party platforms (Lieferando & co.) that charge commission and own the guest relationship, while their own 'website' is an outdated Facebook page or a PDF menu. Guests searching on a phone find nothing fast, modern, or in their language.
The Challenge
Give the restaurant a fast, bilingual (DE/EN) home of its own: an appetizing menu, easy reservation and contact, a gallery and Google Maps — owned by the restaurant, not a platform, and fully DSGVO-compliant.
The Solution
A Next.js 15 site with a tabbed, animated menu, a reservation/contact form (Zod + Resend), a lightbox gallery and Maps integration. Bilingual via next-intl, dark mode, and complete legal pages (Impressum, Datenschutz, cookie consent).
