The challenge
Before: A WordPress site built in 2017

Monte was still running the WordPress theme they set up in 2017 — slow, broken on phones, and buried on Google. Reservations happened over the phone, or not at all.

What Josh built
  • Rebuilt the whole site from scratch — no theme, no plugin sprawl.
  • Art-directed the food and the room like an editorial spread.
  • One-tap reservations wired straight into their booking system.
  • A menu the team updates themselves in seconds.
  • Local SEO so they own the searches in their neighbourhood.
The result

Inside 90 days, online bookings tripled and the reviews started stacking up. Monte went from hard-to-find to booked out on weekends.
