I guess Open Source doesn't exist?

Restaurant owners don't care about Open Source.

Restaurant owners would care about open source, if the offerings weren't expensive to implement. See my comment on the same level.

I meant more that a restaurant owner isn't going to see or really get any value from an open source solution vs closed source specifically. They are just choosing a platform at a price point that works for them.

And my point being they absolutely would use something FOSS if it worked, because for a restaurant, the less money spent on overhead the better.
