I know I keep asking these questions... but you guys are a fantastic resource and I really appreciate the input.. so here goes...

For a bar/restaurant webpage (or any business for that matter)

What info do you want to see RIGHT AWAY?

I have the basics covered... address, map, hours, reviews, specials, menu, calendar, sample pics of interior/exterior...

Is there anything I am missing?

And more importantly... how would you rank the importance of the items listed above?

I'm just not sure how practical that would be for you.

I am thinking that picking an EXACT table wouldn't work.. but maybe something that let you set certain preferences.. still working out the details of how that would look.

Put what the restaurant/bar is known for. People that are checking the place out for the first time want to know that your tenderloin is kickass, or you make a killer Long Island.

Maybe that's more for the menu pages, but let people know what they "can't miss" about the place.

A webcam so I can see if people are waiting for tables without having to drive across town to find out it's an hour wait.
