Salmon — Restaurant WordPress Theme Overview
Salmon is a restaurant design by FORQY for restaurants, pubs, wineries, pizzerias, cafés and food shops. It works with the WordPress block editor and does not depend on third-party page builders, so what you see in the editor closely matches the published page. Six complete demo sites can be imported in one click, and colours, fonts, menus and widgets are adjusted live in the WordPress Customizer.
The restaurant tools are built in. Menu management supports American or European menu styles, several prices per item for different quantities, unlimited ingredients and tags, and optional images and single pages. The reservation system includes a booking form with validation, reservation statuses, email notifications, optional reCaptcha v3 and an optional terms checkbox. Events carry start and end dates, time, location, status, a ticket price and a ticket button, and there are gallery, page and slideshow managers plus a blog with gallery, video and audio post formats.
Accessibility is a stated focus: the vendor says the theme meets WCAG 2.1 Level AA and supports keyboard navigation and screen readers. It also adds structured data for search engines. An optional WooCommerce shop supports simple, grouped, variable, virtual and downloadable products, inventory and shipping options. Salmon is translation-ready and works with plugins such as WPML, Polylang, Contact Form 7, SEOPress and MailChimp.

Who Salmon — Restaurant WordPress Theme Is Suitable For
Salmon suits Canadian restaurants, pizzerias, pubs, cafés and steakhouses that want built-in menus, reservations and events without adding a page builder. The multiple-price option is useful for pizza sizes, wine by the glass or bottle, and share plates, and the reservation statuses help staff track which requests are confirmed.
Its accessibility focus makes it a sensible starting point for businesses working toward provincial accessibility requirements, such as those in Ontario. Wineries and food shops can use the optional WooCommerce store, and Polylang or WPML support suits bilingual English and French sites.
Important Notes About Salmon — Restaurant WordPress Theme
Accessibility and performance claims come from the vendor; test the finished site, since your own content and plugins affect results. The server should meet the PHP limits listed by the vendor, including a 256M memory limit. The Simplify Commerce gateway is US-only, so Canadian stores need another payment gateway. Affiliate product listings must be disclosed to shoppers.
Keep menu prices, ingredients and allergen details accurate and avoid unsupported health claims. Where the site lists or sells wine, provincial liquor licensing and minimum-age rules apply; ticketed events need a refund policy. The owner is responsible for compliance.
