Mama Maria's was a NY staple, beloved for its home-cooked charm. However, its old-school ways were starting to show. Carbon copy order slips, a cash-only system, and a chaotic kitchen were becoming major hurdles, especially during peak hours. The restaurant's warm, bustling atmosphere was at risk of being overwhelmed by inefficiency. Across the street, a new pizza place was thriving with modern technology, highlighting the stark contrast between old and new. As business grew, Maria faced a critical decision: embrace technology or risk losing customers to the competition.
