The ordering system for American cuisine
American BBQ, burger joints and steakhouses have a specific ordering challenge: portion size, doneness, sauce choice and side combinations turn every item into a multi-step configuration. Add alcohol margins that push the ticket up, and sports-event peaks that drive volume to three times normal on a Friday night. GastroSystem is built for that.

How GastroSystem helps American restaurants
Steak doneness and burger configurator
Define mandatory selections and optional extras per item: doneness (rare / medium-rare / medium / well-done) as a required field, sides as single-select, sauces as multi-select. The guest configures at the screen without back-and-forth. The kitchen receipt prints all modifiers clearly structured — no room for interpretation.
Drinks upsell built in automatically
After the main course, the ordering system automatically suggests matching drinks: craft beer with the burger, bourbon with the steak, soft drink for the table. You configure the pairing logic once and the system suggests it on every order. Typical effect: +€1.50–€3.00 average ticket.
Capacity limit for event evenings
Define the maximum number of orders per 15-minute slot for delivery and collection. On match days you set the limit to, for example, 12 deliveries per 30 min — anything above is automatically moved to the next available slot. No overload, no late deliveries, no quality loss.
Family deals and bundle menus
Create menu bundles: 4 burgers + 4 fries + 4 drinks for €39.90 — as a single item with one SKU. Or configurable sets: choose 2 mains + 2 sides from the selection. Families and groups order much faster, and the average ticket rises.
Recover margin and grow revenue
An American restaurant with €9,000 monthly delivery revenue through Lieferando pays up to €2,700 in commission. With GastroSystem, the same volume costs a €79–€179 flat rate. On top of that, the automatic drinks upsell on 40 orders/day typically brings €1,800–€3,600 in additional monthly revenue.

Common questions for American restaurants
Can I enforce mandatory selections like doneness for steak?
Yes. You define modifier groups as mandatory or optional. The guest cannot place an order without selecting a doneness level — that prevents queries in the kitchen.
How does alcohol age verification work at the self-order terminal?
The terminal displays an age confirmation screen when alcohol is added. Your staff confirm via code or fingerprint. All transactions are logged.
Can I set an order limit for match days?
Yes. You can configure maximum orders per time slot for delivery and collection separately. Anything over the limit is automatically booked into the next free slot or shown with a wait time.
