AI for Restaurants
Hospitality / Customer & sales →Keep menu questions moving towards an enquiry.
Give diners clear menu, opening-hour and ordering information. Collect table requests, group requirements and food-order enquiries while your restaurant team confirms availability and fulfilment.
02 / THE PROBLEM
Your team is serving guests while messages arrive.
Customers ask about the menu, closing time, takeaway, delivery areas and tables for a group. During a busy service, staff may not have time to answer every message while also attending to guests and kitchen operations.
An enquiry for ten people needs different information from a takeaway request. Capturing the date, party size or delivery city early helps staff prepare a useful response. The assistant must also know when a food question requires the kitchen’s judgement.
- “Are you open this evening?”
- “Can I see the menu?”
- “Do you deliver to my area?”
- “Can I reserve for ten people?”
- “Can the kitchen cater for an allergy?”
- “How do I place a takeaway order?”
03 / THE SOLUTION
An AI assistant built around your business.
An assistant can use your approved menu, published prices, opening hours, location and takeaway or delivery policies. It can collect a party size and preferred time for a table enquiry, or items and fulfilment preference for an order enquiry.
Restaurant staff confirm table space, item availability, preparation times and any payment step. Allergy, ingredient and dietary questions that are not covered by verified menu information go to the kitchen. The assistant should not guarantee that a dish is safe for a particular diner.

Illustrative workflow · fictional business information · no confirmed order or appointment.
Customer
Can we come for dinner on Friday? There are ten of us.
Assistant
I can prepare a group dining enquiry for Friday for ten guests. What time would you prefer?
Customer
Around 7 PM. One person has an allergy.
Assistant
I can include the preferred time and note that a guest needs to discuss an allergy with staff. The restaurant must confirm table availability and the food requirements before the booking is agreed.
The restaurant receives a group size and time, together with a question requiring human review. Staff can handle the request without a false table confirmation or an unsafe dietary assumption.
