You ran the ad. Good photo, decent copy, a few hundred people saw it. Maybe some likes. But the tables? Same as before. So you turned it off after two weeks and decided "Facebook ads don't work for us."
Here is the uncomfortable truth. Facebook works fine for restaurants. The format you chose did not. The brands consistently filling seats run two specific ad types most owners have never set up, and once they find the right offer and audience, they keep them running for months without rebuilding from scratch. This blog covers what those two formats are, why they outlast every other restaurant Facebook ad, and the part almost nobody talks about: the food photography inside the ad, and how to generate it yourself in one session instead of booking a shoot every time the menu changes.
