HoReCa: websites and software for restaurants
A restaurant site that works on the phone, gets updated when the menu changes, and gets a reply within one business day when something breaks. Online ordering only when your numbers justify it. For La Iancu we run the sites and the maintenance.
Written reply within one business day. No middlemen, no subcontractors.
What we do for restaurants
- Presentation site: menu, reservations, events, and local SEO, fast on a phone.
- Ongoing maintenance: updates, security, fixes, and new content when the offer changes.
- Online ordering: menu with variants, cart, checkout, and payments, when you want your own channel.
- Delivery and kitchen: delivery integrations and kitchen notifications, on request.
- Multi-brand: several locations or brands under one technical contact.
- Mobile app (optional): PWA or native for regulars, never required on day one.
When an own ordering platform makes sense
Not every restaurant needs its own channel; the decision is made on numbers, not trends.
- Steady volume: recurring orders that justify building and maintaining your own channel.
- Margin: aggregators typically take 20–30% of every order; at 100 orders a day, that is RON 2,000–2,400 daily.
- Customer data: with your own channel, the customer list and order history stay yours, not Glovo's or Tazz's.
- Operational control: prices, menu, and promotions updated instantly, without aggregator tickets.
If volume is low and most orders come from aggregator search, a solid site plus aggregator presence is the right call. We look at your numbers before recommending anything.
H.E.S.T.I.A.: AI restaurant management
Faintech's own SaaS for restaurants that want their data to do the work: it connects to your management system (Syrve, Poster, iiko, Loyverse, and more), answers natural-language questions about consumption, sales, and stock, computes a 7-day forecast and replenishment list, and takes inventory from a photo. hestiaai.ro ↗

Questions from restaurant owners
What do you do most often for restaurants?
Presentation sites, digital menus, and ongoing maintenance and updates, like for La Iancu. Full ordering platforms only when the scope actually calls for it.
How much does an own ordering platform cost?
Digital menu with variants, cart, checkout, and payments: from €1,500. With courier integration, multi-brand, or kitchen notifications: up to €12,000. Fixed price after scope.
Compared to Glovo or Tazz, is it worth it?
Aggregators bring discovery but take 20–30% per order and keep the customer data. At low volume an own channel is not worth it; at high volume it pays for itself from the margin. We run the math on your numbers before recommending anything.
What integrations are possible?
Payments (Stripe, PayU), your own delivery or an aggregator, kitchen notifications, and ANAF e-invoicing, depending on the project. Sameday, FAN, and GLS are for parcels (shops), not hot food.
Who handles our project?
Directly with Faintech, the same point of contact from quote to launch. No account manager and no hidden handoff; extra design or mobile work only with your approval.
Who responds when the site goes down?
We do, and we reply within one business day. La Iancu has worked with us for 2+ years on sites and maintenance. Optional: a maintenance contract with an agreed response time.
