Social media marketing for restaurants works when each post answers three questions: what is on the plate, what it costs, and when to come. Post a hero dish, a kitchen clip and a booking push every week, then put a small local ad behind the best one. Belova makes all three from your website and menu.

Posts, ads and UGC frames for one restaurant business, all in the same brand style.
Four repeatable post types keep a small team's feed steady. Batch them on Monday and save Stories for what happens live in the kitchen.
Discount slow nights, not busy ones, and give each offer a name and a fixed price you can repeat.
Show the food moving in the first second, not the logo or the front door. Shoot near a window, keep hands in frame, and put the dish name and price on screen so it works on mute. One dish per video beats a montage; end on a reason to come: a day, a price, a limited batch.
Paste your website or Instagram once. Belova builds a Brand DNA (logo, colors, fonts, tone, audience) and creates posts, carousels and image ads in that style. It can import the dishes listed on your site, and the knowledge base keeps hours, booking link and allergen notes so captions stay accurate.
An AI actor can hold your takeaway box and speak your script in 30+ languages with captions, at 8, 15 or 30 seconds, and Lova Faces keep one presenter across every weekly special. Posts publish or schedule to Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and eight more networks; ads come sized per placement for you to upload (direct launch is coming soon).

Meta restricts any ad that promotes or references alcohol, such as a happy-hour reel or a wine-pairing night: it must follow local law and Meta's age and country targeting (21+ in the US, 19+ in Canada). Meta allows no alcohol ads in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Egypt, Turkey or parts of India, among others; run a food-only version there.
Google Ads permits alcohol ads only in listed countries and rejects ads that appeal mainly to people under the legal purchase age, suggest drinking improves performance or health, or show drinking before activities that need sobriety.
On Meta, "Gluten intolerant? We've got you" breaks the personal-attributes rule because it implies you know a viewer's health; "Gluten-free pasta on request" is fine. In the UK, the CMA says a mandatory service or cover charge belongs in the advertised price.
Three to five feed posts a week plus Stories on service days is a pace a small team can hold. Repeating the same four post types matters more than volume.
