When your kitchen gets overwhelmed, Simply log in and flip a switch. Yes, its that easy. This tool is specifically designed to manage busy periods while maintaining a positive customer experience.

Activating the Overload feature temporarily **disables the checkout process** on your online ordering system. Customers will see a custom message informing them of the situation while still being able to browse your menu. This ensures they remain engaged and ready to place their order when your kitchen is ready to accept new ones.

The message displayed to customers is fully customizable. For example, you might use:

*"Our kitchen is currently experiencing high demand. Please browse the menu, and we’ll reopen the checkout at 5:00pm. Thank you for your patience!"*

By communicating directly with customers, you reduce frustration and maintain their loyalty, even during peak times. The Overload feature ensures you can pause new orders without losing potential business, keeping your operations smooth and your customers informed.

This feature highlights OrdaFast’s commitment to providing tools that enhance restaurant efficiency, improve customer satisfaction, and help your business adapt to real-time challenges. It’s the perfect solution to ensure service quality while managing high demand.

Absolutely! OrdaFast offers a comprehensive menu management system that gives you complete control over your menu items, categories, and availability in real-time. Whether you want to adjust prices, manage inventory, or create seasonal menus, our system is designed to make it simple.

One standout feature is the ability to manage **availability by category or item**, perfect for restaurants with special menus on certain days. For example:

Let’s say you offer a Friday Fish Fry menu. With OrdaFast, you can easily mark your regular menu items or categories as "out of stock" and enable your Friday Fish Fry menu for that day. When Friday rolls around, simply toggle the Friday Fish Fry category to "in stock" and temporarily disable other categories. Customers will only see the items you want available that day, ensuring a streamlined experience.

The system allows you to:

• Create seasonal or special menus: Organize your offerings into categories that can be enabled or disabled based on the day or occasion.
• Manage stock status: Quickly mark individual items or entire categories as out of stock, ensuring customers see accurate availability at all times.
• Switch menus seamlessly: Transition from your regular menu to a special event menu (like a Friday Fish Fry) with just a few clicks in the admin dashboard.

This level of flexibility is invaluable for managing rotating menus or specials. Additionally, you can display a custom message to customers at the top of your website, informing them about changes to the menu. For instance:

*"Welcome to Friday Fish Fry Night! Check out our special menu for tonight's offerings."*

These tools ensure your menu remains relevant, engaging, and optimized for both your business and your customers’ needs. Whether it’s a daily special, a weekend brunch, or a seasonal promotion, OrdaFast makes it easy to adapt.
