YeahThatsKosher Announces New Partnership With Sauce to Support Kosher Restaurants

YeahThatsKosher, the leading authority on kosher travel and dining, is excited to announce a strategic partnership with Sauce, an innovative food ordering and delivery platform. This collaboration is designed to help kosher restaurants and food retailers keep more of their hard-earned revenue while making delivery more affordable and accessible to their customers.

With this partnership, all US-based businesses that sign up with Sauce through YeahThatsKosher will receive exclusive benefits, including waived subscription fees and a $0 sign-up fee, making it significantly easier to manage online orders and deliveries without the burdensome costs imposed by third-party apps like Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Grubhub.

A Smarter, Cheaper, and More Transparent Way to Deliver

Sauce is disrupting the food ordering space by providing restaurants with a full-service delivery infrastructure—leveraging drivers from national platforms as well as local delivery partners — without charging the crippling commissions third-party apps are known for. Unlike those platforms, Sauce allows restaurants to maintain direct relationships with their customers, retaining customer data for marketing and loyalty purposes.

For kosher businesses, that’s a game-changer. “This partnership enables kosher restaurants to finally take control over their delivery operations, keep more of their profit, and continue engaging with their customers long after the food is delivered,” said Dani Klein, founder of YeahThatsKosher. “We’re proud to be working with a tech company that understands the needs of our establishments, including the importance of automatically disabling ordering on holidays.”

Already Making an Impact

With over 3000 restaurants already operating on Sauce, including many kosher establishments, their impact is already visible. Well-known establishments like Mr. Broadway in Manhattan and Smash House, with multiple locations in New York and Florida, have been utilizing Sauce to process their orders, fulfill deliveries, and ensure better margins on each sale. Customers benefit too, often saving money on fees and delivery costs when compared to traditional delivery apps.

For restaurants in New York City, Sauce even covers the “NYC Regulatory Fee”—a mandatory surcharge added by major apps like Uber Eats and DoorDash. With Sauce, that cost is eliminated for the customer, creating an overall better experience and lower price point.

Sauce vs. the Competition

What truly sets Sauce apart is its unique position in the market. Unlike third-party delivery apps like Uber Eats or DoorDash, Sauce doesn’t claim ownership of the customer or take a substantial cut from each order. Instead, it empowers businesses to set their own pricing, enjoy their own customer relationships, and operate on their own terms.

In comparison to POS and online ordering systems like Toast, Square, and ActiveMenus, Sauce offers a complete delivery solution that is streamlined and affordable. Those platforms may allow restaurants to take online orders, but they lack the fully managed delivery network integration that Sauce provides, forcing restaurants to manage delivery in-house or contract with costly third-party services. Sauce combines ordering, fulfillment, and customer marketing into one powerful platform, without the high fees.

For those using other POS systems, Sauce doesn’t replace your POS. It works alongside any POS system and integrates with it, so you keep your ordering system for in-store operations while Sauce handles online ordering, delivery, and some digital marketing services without fees.

Businesses can lose as much as 30% of a delivery order to 3rd party apps like UberEats and DoorDash, without any ability to own the customer relationship. Sauce flips this model by offering no-fee orders and allowing the business to deal with the customer directly without any of the hassle usually involved.. Restaurants are encouraged to keep their 3rd party profiles live for discovery purposes, but at the same time, also advised to promote direct ordering directly through the restaurant’s website, powered by a Sauce, to retain more of their the profits.

Existing Sauce Clients Can Take Advantage of this Partnership Too

For existing Sauce customers, this partnership also unlocks added value. Current Sauce partners will be eligible for a complimentary deep-dive strategy and planning session with a Sauce customer success manager, focused on reviewing 2025 performance and building a clear, actionable plan for 2026.

Restaurants not already enrolled in Sauce’s marketing services will also be eligible for a complimentary upgrade as part of this partnership.

A Values-Aligned Partnership

One of the most compelling aspects of this partnership is the shared mission between YeahThatsKosher and Sauce: to support the local business ecosystem with solutions that work. Automatic shutdowns for Shabbat and chagim are built-in, offering peace of mind for restaurant owners who don’t want to deal with orders showing up on a holiday that falls out on a Tuesday.

“This isn’t just about technology—it’s about building infrastructure that respects Jewish values and supports the financial health of our restaurants and eateries,” added Klein.

How to Get Started
