Background

Unifying a diverse restaurant portfolio online

Ark Restaurants Corp. operates a diverse portfolio of 22 restaurants, bars, fast food concepts, and catering operations across multiple US locations. Robosoft was engaged to unify their digital presence into a single modular platform that reflects each venue's identity.

The challenges

Addressing the

critical gaps

Venue diversity

Venue diversity

The restaurants ranged from upscale dining rooms in NYC to fast-food venues in Las Vegas, each requiring distinct aesthetics, layouts, and content within a shared framework.

Content management

Content management

The administration team needed to update content across multiple properties without technical expertise.

Scalability

Scalability

Building separate web properties was neither practical nor maintainable, yet a one-size-fits-all template would fail to capture each restaurant's character.

Integrated Approach

The Robosoft solution

An integrated approach

Modular core template

Modular core template

We designed a single flexible layout that dynamically adapts to each restaurant's branding, with fonts, colors, images, and optional modules all configurable through the CMS.

Centralized content management

We built the backend on Drupal 7, enabling the admin team to manage themes, content, and module visibility for all venues with minimal technical knowledge.

Content 
delivery

We used Redis as a content storage layer with Node.js middleware, enabling fast data fetching without traditional APIs and ensuring reliable performance across all sites.

Dynamic 
styling
