Direct online ordering for independent restaurants and pizza shops
GoTasty gives an independent restaurant, whether it has one location or many, its own ordering website and app for pickup and delivery, delivery by Uber Direct drivers at a flat fee, and a customer list that belongs to you, with automated texts that bring people back. Our team sets it all up.

Should my restaurant take orders directly or stay on DoorDash and Uber Eats?
Make your own channel the main one. On a marketplace you pay a commission on each order (DoorDash publishes 15–30% for delivery as of 2026) and the customer orders in its app, not yours. GoTasty gives you your own site and app, your own delivery at a flat fee, and the marketing that fills them: we get you found on Google, Maps and AI search, run your referral program and text customers back in, from $199/month plus 1% of orders (as of October 2026). Keep a marketplace listing as an extra channel if you like.
GoTasty is a good fit if…
- A lot of your orders come by phone or through a marketplace
- You want to know who your regulars are and be able to text them
- You want to offer delivery without a marketplace commission
- You’d rather have one app and one bill than five tools
- You want new customers without paying a marketplace for every order
Your built-in marketing team
- Get found on Google and Maps: an SEO-ready ordering site and a Google Business Profile we set up and keep current, with an Order button that goes to your own site
- Show up in AI answers: your menu, hours and prices published in the format ChatGPT, Google’s AI Overviews and Perplexity read, so they recommend you
- A referral program that rewards customers for bringing their friends
- Social rewards: customers earn points for posting and tagging you on Instagram and TikTok
- Automated SMS and push campaigns: welcome, win-back, birthday and promo blasts
What you get
One app, one bill, set up for you. Most shops are live in about 2 weeks.
Your own ordering site and app
Pickup, delivery or dine-in, now or scheduled for later, under your brand. Every order adds a name and phone number to your customer list.
Delivery without the marketplace
Delivery orders from your own channels go out with Uber Direct drivers at a flat fee per delivery, and the customer stays yours.
A list you can actually text
Welcome texts, win-backs for customers who stop ordering, and SMS blasts for a slow Tuesday. AI upsells and abandoned-cart nudges grow every order.
How it works at a restaurant
- We build your menu, photos and ordering site (and on Pro, your iOS and Android app), and you approve it.
- Customers order pickup or delivery from your site or app; orders land on one kitchen screen and flow into Square or Clover if you use them.
- Delivery orders are picked up by Uber Direct drivers at a flat fee.
- Regulars get loyalty points and a text when they haven’t ordered in a while; you send a blast when you need a busy night.
Frequently asked questions
How much does DoorDash charge restaurants?
As of 2026, DoorDash publishes US commissions of 15% (Basic), 25% (Plus) or 30% (Premier) on marketplace delivery orders, and 6% on pickup orders. See merchants.doordash.com for current terms.
What does GoTasty cost?
As of October 2026: Starter is $199/month and Pro (with your own native app) is $399/month, plus a 1% platform fee on orders and Stripe card processing at 2.9% + $0.30. Month-to-month, no setup fee.
Can I keep my DoorDash listing?
Yes. Keep it as an extra channel while GoTasty brings new customers to your own site and app through Google, Maps, AI search and referrals, and moves your regulars there, where the margin and the customer are yours.
How does GoTasty help my restaurant get new customers?
We act as your marketing team. Your ordering site is built for search, we set up and maintain your Google Business Profile so you show up on Google and Maps with an Order button, and your menu, hours and prices are published so AI assistants like ChatGPT can recommend you. Referrals, social rewards and automated texts do the rest, and every new customer orders from you at 1%.
Do I get my customers’ contact details?
Yes. Customers sign in with their phone number when they order from your site or app, so you can reach them with texts and push notifications.
