A Food Ordering and Table Reservation App Built for Restaurant Chains
A restaurant chain and hotel owner in Saudi Arabia needed a mobile platform to manage food ordering and table reservations across multiple locations. Intuz built OLO Food for iOS and Android – with map-based restaurant discovery, dynamic menu management, dietary filters, and a distribution manager panel to handle operations at scale.
Platform FEATURES
What We Built to Manage Food Ordering and
Table Reservations at Scale
A Dynamic Menu Built for Large-Scale Restaurant Operations
We built a highly configurable menu structure that lets restaurant owners manage food items, categories, and dietary filters across multiple locations from a single platform. Menus are organised by meal type – Breakfast, Full Lunch, and Catering – with dietary filter options including Low Carb, Low Fat, Spicy, Veggie, and Gluten Free, giving customers a clear and structured way to find what they want without scrolling through irrelevant items.
Map-Based Restaurant Discovery Across the Gulf Region
We integrated accurate location tracking and a map view that plots all available restaurants and hotels as pins across Saudi Arabia and Gulf countries. Users can see each location’s open or closed status, distance, rating, and active discount offers at a glance – and switch between map and list views depending on how they prefer to browse.
End-to-End Food Ordering Flow
We built the full food ordering flow – from browsing a restaurant’s menu to placing an order and tracking its status. The cart tracks item count and total in real time so users always know what they are spending before they confirm, keeping the ordering experience straightforward across the client’s restaurant and hotel network.
Table Booking Built Into the App
We built a table reservation feature directly into the restaurant detail screen alongside the menu and reviews. Users can book a table at any listed restaurant without leaving the app – giving the client a single platform that handles both food ordering and table reservations across all locations.
Distribution Manager Panel
We built a distribution manager panel to give the client’s operations team control over the platform at scale. Restaurant owners and managers can access the panel to update menus, manage orders, and oversee activity across multiple locations – keeping the business running without manual coordination between sites.
