Summary

Nui is a modern Korean restaurant at 4811 Main St in East Vancouver. Chef Jae Hwang opened it to share the gentle, carefully balanced dishes he grew up eating at home, with a menu made for sharing. Nui came to HigherStack for a website redesign and web hosting. They needed fast results, a menu that matched their branding, and a partner who genuinely cares about their business.

Challenges

where they started

Nui’s food and branding were getting attention, but their website wasn’t keeping up. Small bugs, uneven layouts and a menu page that didn’t look like Nui got in the way of a great first impression. Here’s what stood in the way:

  1. Challenge 1

    Needed fast results.

  2. Challenge 2

    Making sure the menu matched their branding.

  3. Challenge 3

    Wanted a partner who genuinely cares about their business.

Strategy

step by step

  1. Step 1: Met with Nui to understand their needs, and offered alternative options that saved them money and time.

  2. Step 2: Redesigned the menu page so it matches their brand, and fixed spacing and layouts across the site.

  3. Step 3: Optimized their SEO and got it all done in a timely manner.

Results

the good part

A website that finally feels like Nui

Nui now has a cleaner interface, with the small bugs across its pages fixed and a consistent look from page to page. The menu matches the brand, so the website gives guests the same first impression as the restaurant itself.

  • Cleaner UI
  • Bugs fixed
  • Consistent site

Conclusion

in short

Nui needed a partner who could move quickly and care about the details as much as they do. We cleaned up the site, brought the menu in line with their brand and kept everything consistent, and we continue to host and support the site as Nui grows on Main Street.
