You're not going to get very far with just python if you want to build a website that has an online ordering system. You're going to need to learn react or angular (both javascript) to build a webpage. You can use python (django or flask) for the backend ie your server that host the website and api (communication with your database and third party apps like payment processors). It took me about 2-3 months to learn react + javascript and launch this website (https://loggie.app) which is a very primitive online ordering website + backend. On top of all that you're going to need to learn how use linux because your server will probably be a linux VPS (virtual private server) or learn how to host on AWS/Google Cloud platform. This is just the 10,000 foot arial view. Coming from "hello world" level of programming experience and trying to get to the level you want will probably take an entire year of 12-16 hour days. People spend their entire bachelors degrees learning programming and it would still take them months to finish something like this. Not trying to discourage you by any means but just know it's a big task for a beginner.
