Dear webmasters.

I am in the process of developing this website for a restaurant and I would very much like to have your opinions.
http://www.lemonleafrestaurant.com/index2.shtml

Thank you.

Personally DITCH THE BACKGROUND MUSIC

Rule one. no music -REALLY annouying and especially as theres no way to turn it off.

Also i think you simply need more content

its too undeveloped.

i think the image block which changes should be smaller and then have some content under it.

Hope this helps
Dan

Hello there, I've been to your site and it looks just fine for a restaurant site. I kinda agree with Dan about the background music though only changing image will do.

A few things -

1. Background music is a no-no. People are going to your site to learn about it, not to hear stuff. Let them opt in for music. It doesn't add any special personality to the site, and if anything, people get peeved.

2. Are you trying to get reviews on the design or do you need good content? At first glance, you provide no geographic information, not even in the title tag. At the minimum, put something like Lemon Leaf Restaurant, Renton, WA.

3. Content is a must. If you want to rank, add some content about your restaurant. Visitors like knowing a little about where they're going. Give a little history about the restaurant, what made you get started, etc.

4. For Google Local, add the physical address of your site to the footer.

5. Your site is not rendering at all properly on Firefox 2.0.0.13. For example, the menu isn't loading at all and the contact us page shows yellow text on a white background. I see where you're headed with IE7, but it's not FF compliant -- or maybe just not for me.

My $0.23.

Hi there! I have a couple or three comments - firstly, you've got a glaring typo - it says "MEMU" where I suppose it should be saying "MENU"!!! Secondly, when I click on your MEMU, I don't actually go anywhere- the page just seems to refresh. Thirdly, your photos don't really make the restaurant look very attractive. One or two of them have unsightly reflections or blurs on them, but also the first one up shows a lady who is looking quite grumpy! I think you should run the pics through photoshop at the least, or consider getting some better ones. Definitely has potential though and good luck!

I *think* the blurs might be attempts to hide their identity, which if it is you should simply just go in with a decent camera and ask people to sign a photorelease form and get their permission to use the photos.

I think that's the problem I was describing. It works in IE but not FF. Very odd compatibility combo.
