A sleek Web site that presents a sophisticated image

Background

No. 9 is an independently owned and operated restaurant located in Lambertville, New Jersey. Since opening in April 2001, No. 9 has received accolades from numerous local and national newspapers, including USA Today and the New York Times. The focus at No. 9 Restaurant is creating eclectic American dishes using the finest and freshest local ingredients.

Objectives

The primary objective in building the No. 9 Web site was to establish an online presence and provide information about the menu, location, catering services, and chefs. It was essential that the site reflect this award-winning restaurant's creative and seasonal cuisine, as well as its sophisticated atmosphere and décor.

Solution

After a series of collaborative idea exchanges on the design, Verascend created a site that uses a simple navigation system, clean graphical elements, and Flash. These components reflect the simple sophistication of No. 9’s menu and atmosphere. Verascend built a strong online presence for No. 9. The site has drawn patrons to the restaurant, and has decreased the amount of time employees spend answering questions on the phone. Our relationship with No. 9 is ongoing as this restaurant’s popularity continues to grow.
