Restaurant marketing
Full tables. Even on a Tuesday.
Clieni Media is a Berlin agency that helps restaurants win more direct reservations: with a fast website including its own table booking, a well-kept Google Business Profile and visibility in AI assistants such as ChatGPT. On top come ads on Instagram and TikTok for lunch menus, events and new menus.
How your customers search on Google
- restaurant near me
- italian food berlin
- book a table tonight
- brunch kreuzberg
- restaurant with terrace
- restaurant for birthday dinner
- lunch deal near me
How your customers ask ChatGPT
- „Where can I get good Italian food in Berlin-Mitte?“
- „Which restaurant suits a business dinner for six?“
- „Where are vegan options near Alexanderplatz?“
- „Which restaurant still has a table free tonight?“
Typical searches. We make sure you show up for them.
Where Restaurants get stuck
Platforms take a cut
Booking and delivery portals bring guests but charge a share per booking or order, and the guest data belongs to the platform.
Invisible for “near me”
People who eat out on short notice decide in Google Maps. Missing photos, outdated opening hours or unanswered reviews send them next door.
Busy weekends, empty weekdays
Friday and Saturday are full, Tuesday and Wednesday are not. Without targeted offers the week stays unevenly booked.
The phone rings during service
Someone calls about a table in the middle of dinner service. If nobody picks up, the booking is gone.

- Restaurant schema with cuisine and price range
- Notes on allergens, vegan and vegetarian
- Load time under two seconds on a phone
How do I get more reservations without platform commission?
With your own booking on your website and a Google Business Profile that links straight to it. Guests who find you on Google then book with you instead of through a portal. You can keep platforms in parallel, but direct booking becomes the default.
How does my restaurant rank higher on Google Maps?
What matters is the right primary category, complete details, current photos, regular reviews with replies and a website showing the same data. We look after the profile continuously and measure which searches you appear for.
How does ChatGPT recommend a restaurant?
AI assistants rely on sources on the web: your website, your Google profile, review sites and mentions. The clearer and more consistent those say which cuisine you serve, where you are and when you are open, the more likely you are named for the right questions.

FAQ
Do I need my own website if I'm on Google and on platforms?
Yes. On your website the guests and the data are yours, bookings come without commission, and Google and AI assistants use it as the main source for your details.
Can I change my menu myself?
Yes, if you like. Or we change it for you, for seasonal menus or new prices.
Does this work for a small restaurant?
Especially then. A small restaurant lives from guests nearby, and they search on Google Maps and increasingly in AI assistants.
What does restaurant marketing cost?
It depends on which building blocks you need. We quote after the intro call.
