"Appetite" 

Italian Restaurant APP


Appetite is a fancy chain restaurant from Italy that presents itself as a healthy type of restaurant.  The restaurant offers a simple, balanced, simple and sophisticated menu that is made with fresh, seasonal ingredients.  Half of the clients are locals and other half are tourists from different parts of the world.   Appetite is a great option for those who are looking for a healthy and delicious dining experience.

As a UX designer focus on designing an app for a restaurant from conception to delivery. 


 My role  as a designer would involve understanding the needs and goals of the restaurant and its customers, 

by using that information to design a user-friendly and effective app.

Create app for restaurant in Italy from conception to delivery that is easy to use, enjoyable, accessible, and successful.


A deep understanding of the problem is crucial in finding effective solutions.

Restaurant apps don't provide APP with adequate language support or translation options, it becomes difficult for users 

especially non-native speakers to navigate and understand the content. 

Many users have specific dietary needs and food allergies that need to be taken into account when making healthy meal choices. 

Restaurant doesn't included users with allergy or dietary restrictions

Appetite should be aware of these considerations and provide options that cater to customers. 


The goal is to design an app that allows all types of users speaking different languages to order food.

Also, help people with health considerations choose healthy meals according to their preferences with easy navigation.

Designing an app that allows users to order food according to their preferences, needs and allergies.

The focus is to require user-friendly navigation, intuitive language selection, and personalized food options.


Adding technology to make navigation easier can be a challenging, especially when catering to users who speak 

foreign languages and need clear information about tracking their deliveries. 

GPS tracking can indeed be a valuable technology to incorporate into a restaurant app and provide a lot of information

 including real-time updates  on the location of food orders during delivery.  

This can enhance the user experience by increasing transparency and reducing uncertainty.

Persona

Research study

Persona is a key part of user-centered design. 

I conducted a series interviews to validate ideas and gathering insights about the target audience.



By creating persona, I gained a deeper understanding of  target users and their food preferences.


Paper wireframes   

Before designing , it is important to think about the user experience and their needs.

By drafting interactions on paper, I gained a better 

understanding how users might interact within my app. 

I focus on the layout and structure of the app rather 

than visual design.


     Low-fidelity prototype

The goal of a low-fidelity prototype is to create sketch 

of the app's user interference and functionality. 

This allows me test out different ideas and get feedback 

from users. 

Creating a low-fidelity prototype for a restaurant app

 is an effective way to visualize and test the basic functionality 

and user flow of the app before investing in high-fidelity design 

and development.


User testing 


It's essential to consider insights gathered

 from testing to create a better app that 

meets expectations and needs of target 

users.  Adding GPS food tracking to app is 

an important element to make the 

delivery process more efficient.  It helps 

customers track users orders and gives 


information where their food is 


and when it will arrive.  Adding detailed 


descriptions and customized meals can 


be a great way to provide a personalized


experience that meets a diverse range of 


customers.  Including a search window in 


app for restaurants can be a useful 


feature for users who are looking for


specific types of dishes. 

Mockups

Designing a high-fidelity prototype for a restaurant 

can be a complex process.

The high-fidelity prototype presents cleaner and 

easier user flows for ordering food through the app, 

and provides users with better selection and 

customization options.

Including features such as a translator or voice 

assistant in search can make a product more 

accessible and inclusive. These features can help 

people with disabilities or who are not proficient in

 the language of the search engine to find the 

information they need.

During this creative process I learned how to create an app according to specific user needs. 

I learn about the importance of language support and need for multi-language options, translation feature  to ensure inclusive 

and understood how users navigate and interact with menu options according their preferences.  

Understanding user behavior, pain points, motivations, and preferences is essential for designing a successful product.


Next step:

Testing the prototype with users who participated and provided their feedback into the design is an essential step in the iterative design 

process. This is because it allows feedback from real users and makes necessary changes to the design before it is released to the public.
