What DirectDine is
DirectDine is a web service for restaurants combining online ordering, payments, delivery dispatch, and restaurant management. Orders can come through a restaurant’s website, while delivery orders and POS integration are supported. Guests may scan table QR codes and order from a phone without installing an app. The tablet POS includes a kitchen board that can notify customers when orders are ready. Reservation tools provide online booking, waitlists, and floor plans. AI tools can import menu items from a photographed menu or website link into an editable draft, write descriptions, and translate them into French. Payments support cards, Apple Pay, Tap to Pay, QR or payment links, and tips. Listed integrations include Stripe, Clerk, Twilio, Resend, Uber Direct, and DoorDash. DirectDine says it uses encryption in transit, access controls, and staff-action logs, and does not store full card numbers. Plans start at 79.00 USD monthly with a 14-day trial.
