Creative Execution
Impact and Creativity
We infused Local’s new website with a bold, festive spirit that mirrors the in-person dining experience. Inspired by the rich textures and vibrant colours of traditional Mexican culture, we used warm tones, playful accents, and mouth-watering visuals to evoke a sense of place and personality. The homepage opens with an immersive hero image, instantly capturing attention and setting the tone for what’s to come. Each section flows with rhythm and life, inviting users to explore the menu, book a table, or learn more about the story behind the restaurant.
Functionality and User Experience
Built with a mobile-first mindset, the site offers smooth navigation and fast loading on all devices—essential for today’s on-the-go diners. We strategically placed high-converting features such as booking prompts, food category filters, and order buttons to simplify user journeys and drive action. Customers can now preview menu items at a glance, view operating hours, or tap to book—all within seconds. The structure is intuitive and engaging, ensuring every visitor can find what they need effortlessly.
Branding and Storytelling
Every design choice was grounded in Local’s brand essence: community, authenticity, and flavour. We used real-life imagery to highlight the care and craft behind each dish, while the conversational tone of the copy captures the voice of a passionate local eatery. The story unfolds naturally as users scroll—from the welcoming tone of the homepage to the heartfelt description of their culinary roots—creating a cohesive narrative that builds trust and loyalty.
Execution and Design Excellence
This wasn’t just a design update—it was a digital transformation. From fluid animations to SEO-integrated layouts, every element was meticulously crafted for both form and function. We balanced bold, eye-catching design with technical precision, ensuring seamless performance across all devices. The vibrant aesthetic not only reflects Local’s energy but also differentiates it from cookie-cutter competitors in the local food scene. By merging storytelling with strategy, we turned a static online presence into a dynamic business asset.
Summary
The new website for Local Tacos and Tequila is more than just a digital presence—it’s a powerful growth tool. With a bold look, seamless UX, and a strong SEO foundation, it connects the restaurant with more of the community they serve, turning visits into regulars and searches into loyal customers.
