Will the video use the food photos already on my restaurant website?

Yes. The browser captures real page screenshots, including the restaurant hero, dish photography, dining-room images and relevant menu sections. The cut uses those visible assets with the site's own colours and type, so the food and atmosphere come from the restaurant page rather than unrelated stock imagery.

Can the ad send viewers toward my booking page?

Yes. If the website shows a reservation button, booking widget or clear enquiry route, the video can build toward that action. Keep the booking language visible and specific, such as reserve a table or book private dining, so the final scene matches what guests will find after they visit the site.

What format will my restaurant video use?

Vertical videos are 1080x1920 and horizontal videos are 1920x1080. Both render at 30fps in H.264, with audio normalised to -14 LUFS. Vertical suits close food shots and mobile booking prompts, while horizontal gives wider dining rooms, terraces and bar scenes more space.

Can I use a trending sound with the restaurant ad?

A trending sound is handed over as a link so you can attach it natively when posting. It is not baked into the video file because baked-in audio does not count as using that sound on the platform. The rendered audio is still scored and normalised to -14 LUFS.

How do I turn my restaurant website into a video ad?

Enter the restaurant website URL and Sizzledraft drives a headless browser through the page, capturing real screenshots rather than inventing dishes or dining-room scenes. It identifies the hero, food photography, atmosphere, menu or pricing information and booking calls to action, then authors a scene using colours and type from the site. The first video is cut from the website alone, so the page needs to communicate what guests can eat, where they will sit and how they can reserve. Later videos accept a prompt, which can focus the cut on dinner service, Sunday lunch, private dining or a seasonal menu. The finished video is rendered frame by frame at 30fps with H.264 video and audio normalised to -14 LUFS.

What should a restaurant video ad show first?

Lead with the strongest appetite cue on the site, usually a close crop of a finished dish, a table being set or a busy dining room. Follow it with one or two details that answer practical questions, such as cuisine, location, opening occasion or set-menu price, then end on the booking action shown on the website. Avoid opening with a logo over an empty background because it delays the food and atmosphere guests use to judge a restaurant. For vertical delivery, the video is 1080x1920, so wide dining-room photographs may need a tighter crop. Horizontal delivery is 1920x1080 and can preserve more of a terrace, bar or group table. Each shot should help a potential guest picture the meal and know what to do next.

Can a long restaurant website make a focused short ad?

Yes, but the cut works best when it selects sections instead of treating the full page scroll as the final sequence. Restaurant sites often mix food galleries, chef biographies, private-event packages, gift cards, press coverage, menus and reservation widgets on one long page. Showing all of them can bury the main reason to visit and delay the booking prompt. Choose a single dining occasion, then support it with the most relevant food image, atmosphere shot and booking detail. A date-night ad might use a plated main, a candlelit table and the reservation button, while a private-dining ad should favour the room, group menu and enquiry route. Section picking keeps the pacing useful without misrepresenting what the restaurant website actually offers.

What the browser actually gets

The browser scrolls the full restaurant page and captures the hero, food photography, dining-room features, menu or pricing details and booking calls to action. Long marketing pages need careful section picking because showing every chef story, event package and press quote can make the cut drag.

The common mistake

A common mistake is trying to show every menu, room, review and service in one restaurant ad. Pick one dining occasion, lead with the best matching food or atmosphere image, and finish with the relevant booking action.

Food photography can lose its appeal when it is cropped poorly for a vertical ad.
A restaurant website may separate the menu, dining-room atmosphere and booking button across several sections, making the story hard to pace.
Long pages with private dining, gift cards, chef profiles and press mentions can produce a slow cut unless the strongest sections are selected.
