Maxxsol built Mi Mesa, a dual-integrated restaurant booking platform for the Colombian market. We delivered a real-time web dashboard for restaurant operations and a React Native mobile app for diners, published on both the iOS App Store and Google Play, replacing manual, error-prone booking with instant, synchronized reservations.
The problem
Restaurants in high-traffic urban districts like Medellín struggled with manual, error-prone booking systems, leading to overbooking and lost customer loyalty.
What we built
We developed a dual-integrated ecosystem: a powerful web-based dashboard for restaurant operations and a sleek mobile app for diners to discover and book tables instantly.
- Real-time table and reservation dashboard
- Localized restaurant discovery (Medellín focus)
- Automated diner notifications and confirmations
- Integrated Customer CRM for personalized service
The stack & why
Outcomes
We delivered the full platform end to end: a real-time web dashboard for restaurant operations and native iOS and Android apps for diners, both published to their app stores. The system replaces the manual, error-prone booking process with instant, synchronized reservations built for the Colombian dining market.
What we learned
The previous team had spent three years building native iOS and Android apps separately. When Kevin came to us, we recommended scrapping both and rebuilding in React Native, cutting future maintenance cost in half while shipping significantly faster. The most painful decision was the payment gateway: the Colombian payment provider we had access to had unreliable APIs and sparse documentation, and it took a full extra month of integration work before transactions were stable enough to go live. What surprised me most wasn't the engineering. It was the market. Colombia has an extraordinary food culture, yet no credible reservation platform existed. Kevin understood that gap before anyone else did, and that clarity of vision is exactly what makes an MVP worth building right.
