RESTAURANT WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT

SEASONAL FARE AT SUNSET AND GOWER

“Paley is a grand new restaurant in the new Columbia Square complex, adapted from what was built as the original headquarters of CBS Radio in 1938. The restaurant is fairly majestic in scale – high ceilings, lots of glass – with the finishes and elegant curves borrowed from the Hollywood Moderne style, but modernist glass light fixtures and a vibe that is more 1963. Face east, and you could be in a white telephone movie. Face west, and you may as well be in the Theme Building at — Source: Jonathan Gold, LAtimes.com

We helped bring a sophisticated look and feel to this new restaurant’s website as well as a fully authorable multi-language content editor. Our WordPress based layout platform also enables periodic menu and reservation offers to greet new users via a delayed modal window.

ENGLISH / 日本語 / 中文

We implemented a low-cost multi-language solution which allows for complete control over all textual elements of the site. Currently the site is translated into Japanese and Chinese, and hosted on language specific subdomains (i.e., http://jp.paleyhollywood.com, http://ch.paleyhollywood.com).

This allows for each language to be indexed by search engines without penalty. It also allows for more intelligent detection of user origin, and language preference via which the most relevant site may be presented for users entering the primary domain.

OPENTABLE INTEGRATION

We built a branded date, time, and seat number form that sends users directly to OpenTable.

Paley is perfect for those occasions when you find yourself having a meal without really having a meal.
