Restaurant Websites - your personal experiences?

I want a Stubby Dog!! That sounds soooo good right now! 

Stubby,
Nice improvements to your web site! Clean, easy to read, tells your story very well and establishes your credibility and uniqueness. The only suggestion would be a map pinpointing your location. Good Job! 

I could even understand his directions, and I've never been within several hundred miles of Mass. I believe that's what the google places will be, but the link is broken at the moment.

I believe a website should be "I came, I saw, I conquered"........Thats all I ask for..........

The Google places link is broken? Sheesh... the one link I didn't click on! I'll fix it ASAP.

As far as a map... not really necessary. Literally you get on route 2 and head towards Shelburne Falls until you see me there by the road.

Ok... I just fixed the Google places link as well as one typo I caught while I was doing that. Thanks for pointing out the bad link (I probably never would have noticed).

The reason I suggest it is because not all people are as geographically astute as Mr. Voss so they can print it out for  reference and reassurance. Especially old codgers like me. And not everyone has a GPS.

I know you'll contest anything I say just because I say it, and you are an expert on literally every subject in the World,
but
that IS what the google places link is. And most folks do not not print out websites, they have smartphones.

I do contest most everything you say because many times you are not correct in your generalizations and assumptions. I'm not an "expert on literally every subject in the World" but I DO check my facts. "Most Folks" do not have Smart Phones. Smartphones make up 19 percent of all mobile phones. The number is growing but "Most Folks" don't have one. ( http://www.gartner.com/it/page.jsp?id=1543014 )
Far more people have computers with access to the Net and Mapquest than have Smartphones. Talk to me in 10 years and the numbers will be different.

Nice to have my own stalker. Most in my world don't sit around nitpicking on an old man's website 18 hours a day either. 
You certainly ruin my experience here. I'm sure that makes you happy. Mapquest? Really?
here's the google search for grocery outlet phoenix. lists what I listed because the Grocery Outlet homepage was down. looks like you have local stores with that name that need to be sued by the real chain.

the lady that wanted ring bologna called her dish ham salad, just as my mother always did.
Any other things you want to bitch about? 
BTW, here's an intellengent discussion from CH about menu design from folks who are younger than 70, at least in spirit if not in age.
website menus in pdf format... - Not About Food - Chowhound
 
Get off my back, I believe is what you said. Take your own advice. 
go volunteer for sheriff joe. maybe you can hand out the pink underwear to the mexican prisoners you seem to obsess over.

Make sure that if you DO use a designer, that you use one who will set up the site so you can make changes easily yourself.  You don't want to have to pay again to add a few items to the menu or list seasonal specials.

BS.... Your first post here on Road Food and all you can do is promote your business.
SPAM is not welcome here.

Say there Mr. Voss, I was wondering what pleasure you derive from being an ageist. Is there some particular thing that drives you to display such hateful, discriminatory feelings about those whom you believe to be older than you are -- currently?

Sorry.  Was trying to authentically answer the question.  I do know websites and usability. I removed my link.  No more spam.

This used to be a vibrant website. Now it is a bunch of bitter old men prattling on about Connecticut. What a waste of of once vital place. 
Look how Bistro Square was treated directly above me. A potential live body with new input and interesting stories? Of course not. Drive him away so we can talk about life way back when in Connecticut. Jesus Christ. Have fun.

Nah, it's still vibrant, but unfortunately every once in a while a  nasty breeze blows out of Oregon threatening to sweep away the freshness. I understand that for some folks on the left coast the tradition and experience of their betters from back East is difficult to bear, but with maturity will come the ability to appreciate what has gone before. At least for those who are willing to accept the fact that they have much to learn. For those who can't handle it, well, there's always -- well, not much.
 
Have a really nice day.

i have to agree with Mr Voss.....
ive gotten a pretty strong "ol bittys club" vibe from 3 or 4 around here in the last few weeks or so.....
now i will admit, i may not be the easiest person to get along with, lol, but thats life, deal with it.....
and to good ol' hassleHOFF there.... i think its amusing the way your posts get so colorful and rich when your trying to belittle someone, bringing out all the big words like that.... way to pull out all the stops there bud...
 
i think if you were a little more graceful with all your perceived wisdoms of age and experience, and not so bullish, elitist, and entitle minded about it, things would be a lot rosier around here..... 
 
and on that note..... just for the record, when you act like a crotchety old bitty..... telling you so isnt discriminatory 
you and your minions feel free to write up nice long responses, im sure your going to do it regardless.....

I'm terribly sorry for using "big" words. In the future I'll try to use little ones that you might understand.

you sure that "nasty breeze" isnt blowing out from underneath your snugeez ?

Okay kids, play nice.
