First things first:
👉 Visit RestroFlow and click on “LogIn” or “Get Started.”
You’ll be asked to provide:
- Your restaurant/business name
- Email address
- Password
- Your Full name
After filling out the form, Next Restaurant Branch Details! If you have any branches or just your restaurant name and address.
✅ Tip: Use a strong password and save it securely.
🏢 Step 2: Set Up Your Restaurant Profile
Once your account is ready, you’ll be prompted to fill out your restaurant’s basic settings with the help of our onboarding step by step setup.

After the Setup Wizard, simply head to the settings tab:
- Address/location and complete Restaurant Information

🧾 Step 3: Configure Your Menus
Now for the fun part, building your menu!
Head to the Menu Management section:
- Create categories (e.g., Starters, Mains, Desserts, Drinks)
- Add dishes or items with names, descriptions, prices, and images
- Set availability and variations
✅ Tip: Use clear item names and tempting descriptions to boost upsells.

Visualize your restaurant floor by setting up your tables:
- Create table zones/areas (e.g., Main Hall, Terrace, Private Room, Rooftop)
- Assign table numbers and seating capacity

This helps servers quickly identify tables during busy shifts and improves seating management.
📦 Step 5: Manage Your Inventory
