If you typed your address manually, Google might not be able to detect your location on the map. Check to see that the LOCATOR PIN is in the right place and if not, move it so your location is accurate on the map.

A website plays an important role in our directory and can help you get more sales and deliveries. If you don’t have a website just leave it blank. Please feel welcome to contact us to see a demo of our our online ordering and delivery website system.
Category and Business Hours

These are the hours you answer your phone and take orders for delivery. When things open back again, this section will be updated.
By clicking on remove button you can remove any day of the week and by clicking the + button you can add any day of the week to your schedule.
9 Category
This is important so customers can match multiple search options and EASILY find you! If your listing comes under one of the 14 MAIN CUISINE CATEGORIES be sure you select the MAIN CATEGORY and IF there is ALSO a sub-category that describes your cuisine… select the sub-category TOO and your listing will show up in BOTH searches! For example, if your cuisine is Latin and you specialize in Cuban fare, then be sure to select the MAIN category “Latin” and ALSO select the sub-category “Latin, Cuban“ to maximize your EXPOSURE in the directory.
If you can’t find a category that matches YOUR cuisine, go ahead and complete everything else and just tell us your specialty cuisine and we will add a new category – for your listing.
