Geo-target 1–5 miles around your restaurant.

Hook: "Hungry in [City] tonight?"

CTA: "Reserve now" / "Order online" / "Send Message."

6️⃣ Tracking & Optimization

Install Meta Pixel on website or order page.

Track events: Add to Cart, Purchases, Reservations.

Test 3 versions of each creative (short video, carousel, static image).

Scale winners by increasing budget gradually (20–30% every 3 days).

7️⃣ Extra Power Moves

Run retargeting ads for everyone who visited your menu page but didn't order.

Upload customer email list → build a custom audience.

Create Lookalike audiences from your best customers.

Use Stories Ads with polls ("Which dish should be next week's special?").
