Your Phoenix playbook
What wins in Phoenix, from its own numbers.
- 1
Let Maya take the calls
With minimum wage at $15.15 in Arizona, every hour on the phone is expensive. Maya answers, books tables and takes orders, so your team can cook and serve.

Win the office lunch
About 65% of Phoenix's restaurants are counter-service, cafés or snack bars. One shared link lets a whole office add to one pickup order.

Move regulars off the delivery apps
Every app order pays a commission and the guest belongs to the app. Orders on your own site, with Apple Pay, keep the margin and the guest.

Tip-credit cut was rejected
Voters rejected Proposition 138 in 2024, which would have let employers pay tipped workers 25% below minimum wage. High tipped pay stays.

Delivery apps take 15-30%
DoorDash's US plans charge 15%, 25% or 30% per delivered order. Orders on your own site keep that margin in the restaurant.
