Five Star Restaurant Menu and Food Ordering

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 54% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   We use this plugin for a whiskey bar with over 1.200 whiskeys in Berlin. For this special setup we asked for a addon custom code. Tony from support team was helping very fast and came along with a perfect working solution! The plugin itself impresses with its many features and extensive customisation options. It is also very well documented.

   Nice restaurant menu plugin. Free version has many possibilities. Still if you need more customization you migth need to buy the pro version or make theme customization.

   I’m using this plugin as a menu for the catering section of a clients website. It was easy to use and understand the different features of the plugin. I was working on it and all of a sudden the entire page crashed and wouldn’t load. I reached out to the team and within 24 hours they had a solution for me and the page was back up and running. Beyond relieved, and very pleased with the support and plugin!

   I am working on a restaurant website where I am adding a menu. I needed just a menu to display because I did not need online ordering. So, I tried others and I decided on Five Star Restaurant Menu. I decided on it because it was easy to use and the cost was reasonable. It provided the most options and displayed the menu items how I liked it. I wanted the options so I bought the premium version. It was easy to add menu items and create multiple menus. I can change the order of sections. My issue was that some CSS styles were not playing nice with the theme I picked. So, I am not a developer and know just enough to be dangerous. I reached out to support and they were able to quickly give me the CSS code I needed to correct the issues. Thank you!

   I can’t say enough good things about this plugin. I’ve been using it for almost 10 years give or take a few. I’ve never had any serious issues with it and it runs on quite a few sites I manage. Countless thanks to the developers!!

   This is not what was expected. Lightbox does not work with menu section. You need to go into a lot of CSS to make the menu presentable. +1 for the support that did their best to help. But if you are interested in one restaurant menu, that is not your way to go.
