We Built This Tool to Help Your Restaurant Get Discovered

From the Desk of Jonathan Lim, Founder & CEO, Oddle

If you run a great restaurant but feel like you're not getting the attention you deserve, you’re not alone.

We’ve spoken to hundreds of restaurant owners who pour their heart into food and service—yet still feel invisible online.

That’s why we built BrandCheck.

Not as a marketing gimmick.

Not as another dashboard.

But as a simple, free tool to help you answer one critical question:

Are new customers able to find you when they search online?

Most Restaurants Aren’t Discoverable—And Don’t Know It

Let’s try something.

Search: “Best Chinese restaurant in Singapore.”

The top result? Shisen Hanten. Michelin-starred. 2,000+ reviews. Media mentions everywhere.

We ran this test with a group of restaurant owners. Many were surprised—even upset.

But the result isn’t based on taste or personal opinion. It’s based on what Google shows your customers.

And unless you’re showing up, you’re being skipped.

Brand = Discoverability. Visibility. Trust.

When we talk about “building brand,” here’s what it really means from a customer’s POV:

• Can I find you easily on Google?
• Do your photos and reviews convince me?
• Can I take action—book a table or order now?

This is where most restaurants fall short.

Not because they’re bad businesses—

But because they’ve never been trained in digital. And SEO can feel like a black box.

That’s Why We Created BrandCheck

We built BrandCheck with one mission:

To help every restaurant owner understand how discoverable they are—and where they can improve.

It takes under 60 seconds.

No login. No setup.

You get a visibility score and an audit of whether your Google profile and website are properly linked to active sales channels like reservations or delivery.

Because when someone searches for your restaurant, there’s only one outcome you should aim for:

A meal to happen.

And if you’re not giving them the path—whether dine-in or delivery—they’ll choose someone else.

Don’t Just Compete—Win Where It Matters

Here’s a simple way to think about it:

Some restaurants need to win nationally.

Some just need to win their neighbourhood.

But either way—you need to show up.

What Customers Actually See (and Care About)

When someone finds you on Google:

1. They scan your food photos
2. They read your reviews
3. They look for action—book, order, visit

If your photos are missing, if your reviews are negative (and unanswered), if your booking link is broken—

They bounce.

And about reviews?

Yes, some are unreasonable. But replying to them—good or bad—shows you care.

Customers can smell indifference a mile away.
