Awesome Software
I deployed TI for a single-location delivery service, the employees and customers likes TI very much.
Pros
It is very customizable, and if you know what you want to do and how TI works, it is most of the time easy to accomplish. The team and their discord community provide a lot of help and support.
Cons
You have to learn how TI works. It is most of the time required to checkout the source code since their is not yet every part documented.

TastyIgniter! The absolute best value for restaurant management! Front of house to kitchen!
I really like TastyIgniter! I was able to find missing functionality, suggest an extension be developed, debug developer's proposed extension from start to final production. We used TI exclusively and were able to increase throughput and management. We are VERY SATISFIED with TI!
Pros
Free!
Easy to use! (My background is IT)
Extensibility! Easily added functionality with existing extensions and paid extensions.
Cons
POS not present, but planned integration into existing POS systems. (not going to implement as that goes against my desire for free software supported by happy users).
Setup can be tricky if you are not familiar with website hosting and getting a site up and running.

The best open source restaurant software
If you are looking for a standalone system for your restaurant and want to focus on delivery and take away, this is your software. T
Due to COVID we had to close the restaurant and started providing take away dishes. We are located in Spain but have English-speaking clientele so this was not very easy. We've set this system up and it was so successful that we've kept providing take away dishes to our clients.
Pros
The software has a very attractive interface for the end-user and allows for multiple payment gateways. We have implemented Mollie and haven't had any issue with handling payments. The menu items with it's customisation makes it very easy to provide toppings for pizza's, different sauces, etc..
Cons
There is nothing bad to say about the software. The learning curve for me was a bit steep in the beginning but I had immediate support from the community and developer within hours. The support was so good that I decided to help the community a bit with some easy setup questions I dealt with in the beginning. Unfortunately I'm not that good of a programmer to contribute, otherwise I would have jumped on immediately.

Powerful easiest way to manage and run your restaurant
TastyIgniter is a gaming change, turns life inside a restaurant much easier!
Who uses TastyIgniter have more information about the business, clients habits, and preferences, have on hands what’s happening in the restaurant.
It's software that provides simplicity and power in the same place!
Pros
This is a 360º software that provides more than a simple online order platform.
The way the Software was built provides features that sometimes it's not available on "similar or big" software on the market, TastyIgniter has a modern interface, a unique and easy way to set, customize and run restaurants.
Extensions are another powerful tool that can increase something that is awesome to another step!
Cons
The only thing that I like least is about the documentation, as someone that doesn't have a large experience with a programming language, it's hard (to me) to build extensions that can help me to have data as I want to have.

Online Food Ordering
What I like about this software is that I have never had to contact customer service or technical support, if you follow the guidelines to the letter you will have no problems.
Pros
The software is easy to install, easy to use, has a great platform, never had to call for support, when there are new updates it installs easily, mobile-friendly this software is very competitive. good job.
Cons
What I don't like is that they don't have many themes to choose from but I imagine they will soon have many to choose from.

TastIgniter - An Excellent Product at the Right Price!
We have recommended this to quite a few outlets and all users are very happy with the recommendation, some of which have been dissatisfied with previous software purchased. We will continue to recommend this as the best software for the target market.
Pros
The system is extremely easy to use and new users can be up and running very quickly indeed. In the target market being extremely computer literate is not too normal, but this is well designed and thought out so the basic user can master the system quickly and easily. And of course the price ..... well let's just say it beats the socks off similar packages in price, functionality and ease of use!
Cons
There are no negatives we found or reported to us.

Open and flexible
From making the decision to use TastyIgniter, to doing the implementation, the entire experience was unexpectedly easy. There were no major roadblocks and our solution worked as intended.
Pros
The most important factor for choosing this as our solution was the ability to customize and integrate with other existing solutions. The codebase is well written and documented. Features work as expected. And integrating other solutions was easy and worked as expected.
Cons
At the time of integrating our solutions, our needs were met. The customer facing interface customization features could have been more fleshed out, but we simply customized where needed.

From the developer perspective
Pros
I am a laravel fan and when I came across tastyigniter I was thrilled to find that it as a laravel project! This made it super easy for me to get it up and running and allotted me the ability to do any further customizations if needed.
Cons
It wasn't overly intuitive to customize the home page. I wasn't that much of a fan of how component management was handled. I would have preferred a drag and drop interface with icons to the left for selecting various elements or components.

Tasty Treats
Pros
1. The ease of integration of laravel plugins such as socialite. Generally customization is easy.
2. Featured menu
3. Admin dashboard
4. Reservations
Cons
1. Integration of an online live map for delivery services.
2. The time picker for reservations is limited to the available options. Consider adding a flexible one using the available jQuery or bootstrap plugins.
3. Fix the bugs on search by address or postcode. I had a hard time implementing.
Also allow for searching by product or restaurant on the homepage
4. Work on the presentation of products
5. Homepage is a bit dull, it should reflect similar applications eg display slider with promos, coupons

Great product, packed with features, all for free
Pros
Pros of this product are just how simple it is to set up and use. For a product that is free, the ability to get help too is just a bonus. The creator is always trying to help people out where possible as well as others in the community.
Cons
About the only con at this moment in time is the lack of themes / plugins, for some people who don't want to do much setting up, it works but the lack of customising will be hard for some users.

Excellent service that can be modified with new features
Pros
Working and easy to set up service. It has numerous functions for order management and is very intuitive.
Cons
Sometimes it's a bit slow (PHP's fault which has its limitations) and also when I used it I didn't have functionality for order notification, however I managed to create a script that allows sound notification on the browser when receiving a new order
