Mahdad Taheri commented on Angela Stoner's blog post Seven Reasons Why Your Restaurant Needs an App"I agree with Sergio. I think there's simply too much generalization in recommendations for the industry. We're guilty of it too at TVI so I need to follow my own advice! An example:…"
Sergio commented on Angela Stoner's blog post Seven Reasons Why Your Restaurant Needs an App"Good post!. Anyway, I think that not all rules can be applied to every kind of restaurant; if you go to a pleace to have a short, quick and easy lunch, some kind of apps can be useful and some others not, and on the other hand, if you want to spend…"
Steve Tamer commented on Angela Stoner's blog post Seven Reasons Why Your Restaurant Needs an App"In today's demanding world, more and more people are turning to the web for simple ways to order food from their favorite restaurants.

Gregory Artzt commented on Angela Stoner's blog post Seven Reasons Why Your Restaurant Needs an App"Jason, thanks for that posting. This shift towards greater app usage is very compelling and argues for restaurants to have their own app, not just a mobile optimized website. "
Kyle Bryan commented on Angela Stoner's blog post Seven Reasons Why Your Restaurant Needs an App"I work with Halo POS and our mobile app has been very successful for many of our quick service clients. Our app is fully integrated with our POS system for processing of orders and accurate back-end reporting while saving on labor costs and freeing…"
