Restaurant online ordering in Fontana, CA
DirectOrders empowers Fontana restaurants with commission-free ordering in the Inland Empire's fast-growing food landscape.
The Fontana food scene
Fontana's food scene is driven by a diverse and rapidly growing population that has brought Mexican, Salvadoran, Filipino, and Chinese culinary traditions to the Inland Empire. Sierra Avenue has become a multi-ethnic food corridor, and the city's affordable rents allow immigrant entrepreneurs to open restaurants that would be prohibitively expensive closer to the coast.

Why Fontana restaurants are switching to direct ordering

The Fontana food delivery market is evolving. Fontana's suburban families, warehouse workers from the logistics industry, and NASCAR event crowds drive varied delivery demand throughout the week. Instead of paying 15-30% commission on every order to DoorDash or Uber Eats, forward-thinking Fontana restaurants are switching to commission-free direct ordering platforms.
