TastyIgniter

TastyIgniter is free, open-source online ordering software built on Laravel that a restaurant hosts itself. It takes delivery and pickup orders on the restaurant's own site with no per-order commission, and adds table reservations, menu management, kitchen ticket printing, payments and multi-location control. Extensions come from a marketplace, and paid installation and support are optional.
