Go Beyond

Expectations.


It's not easy being a Restaurateur right now.

It probably goes without saying. Food and labor costs are up. People are stressed. It's harder than ever to find good help. It seems like every vendor is raising their fees. 

Sometimes, it's like there's not much fun in this game anymore. It's now all about surviving. Making it happen and
putting out fires as fast as they ignite. 

That's all the back end stuff. But what about the customer? What about why we're in this business in the first place? 

Sooner or later, though, when the "back end stuff" takes over, changes have to be made. Because without the customer being priority #1, there's somebody else down the street or around the corner that's going to make them their #1. 

Costs Matter

Yes, our guests are priority #1. But without every possible dollar of revenue available to keep pace with the rising expenses, there won't be a menu- or a team - to deliver the dining experience you're guests show up for. Yes, it's possible to "make it happen." But at what compromise? Don't fool yourself - every dollar matters.

Guest Experience Matters

We don't go out to eat because we're hungry. When we're hungry we go get a turkey sandwich with mayo. We go out to eat because we need variety in our life. We need communion. We need to have new experiences and memories to share with our loved ones and those that matter in our life. Don't forget - every moment matters.

Why choose us? Balance.

They put our hesitations to rest...

After using other reservation systems that could not handle our volume we were hesitant to take the plunge. They put our hesitations to rest, and made our transition as seamless as possible. Thanks guys!

Affordable. Reinvestable.

We don't stop at helping you reduce costs. We help you reinvest potential savings back into growing the business and keeping your customers priority #1.

The dining experience. Perfected.

We help you craft, and perfect, the dining experience your restaurant was designed for. We help you catch issues before they go public, and gain insights when everything goes right.

Smooth operations

Whether it's having your customer dining preferences available on your phone, reducing no shows, keeping server rotation fair or enjoying automated guest communications, things run better. This helps you spend more time on the "back end stuff" - the right way.

Better reputation that keeps getting better

People talk. We've all heard the stats about the social reach of one bad experience vs. a good one. We help you excite your customers with ways to treat them better and make them feel like family. Just don't make the mistake of getting comfortable. One bad experience, as we know, can wipe out dozens of good ones with the stroke of a key.

Brings feedback to me before they can go out on the net.

It is better than [competitor] at seating assignments that block tables in use, interactive features and solved some issues of overbooking, sending contracts and documents to guests and brings feedback to me before they can go out on the net.

Faq

Does RestaurantConnect help with online reservations?

Yes, included with our limited lifetime offer is an embeddable reservation widget & google reserve integration. That means your customers can book a reservation directly from Google Maps! This powerful integration paired with no reservation fees saves you thousands of dollars per year!

Will RestaurantConnect help reduce no shows?

Yes, with our PCI compliant credit card collection and reservation contract options you'll dramatically reduce no shows or cover your losses for lost reservations!

what devices can I use?

Install or access on iPad, Android, Microsoft PC, or Mac, and browser! Unlimited installations, completely portable, and totally flexible. You can even check in on reservations from your mobile phone.

Can RestaurantConnect help manage restaurant capacity?

Absolutely, with our built in auto assignment functionality (even for online reservations!) and smart tool tips your staff can get back to greeting customers and let our smart table assignment do the heavy lifting.

What kind of restaurants use your system?

We are a great fit from anything to independently owned restaurants with a single or a few locations, to 5 star resorts with multiple venues on the property. Casinos, private clubs, fast placed casual concepts and destination driven favorites all have one thing in common: strong brands that keep their customers at the center of everything they do. 

What's the onboarding process like?

To start, we take care of you and your team by first understanding what your needs are. This is a quick setup call that gets the ball rolling and making sure everybody's on the same page. Once we have all the information we need to configure your system, we'll have you up and running within 48 hours. From there, we have a recorded team training that brings the entire team up to speed.

can you import my customer data?

Absolutely. We take great care in preserving the integrity of all your customer information. If you can export it to a .csv or Excel file, we can import it. This include not only contact information, but other things like dining preferences, notes, or other useful columns your export may have.

can you import MY reservations from another system?

In our experience, (if a .csv/Excel reservation export is even available) nearly all data structures of different reservation systems are too different to make a reservation import possible. Because of this incompatibility, we encourage restaurants to take this as a learning opportunity for their reservation management and host team. By spending a little time each day during the transition process to enter upcoming reservations, they become comfortable with the new system. Then, when it's time to go live, they're comfortable taking reservations over the phone while in the new booking environment.

can I text guests on the waiting list when their table is ready?

We were the first to offer this functionality to restaurants (back when restaurant pagers were in use and Motorola flip phones were cool) over 10 years ago. Since then, we've pioneered ways to further leverage texting through guest feedback collection, MOD alerts, VIP notifications and even group dining lead generation. 

Will I lose business if I leave my current reservation management provider?

What's is say about a restaurant if they need another company to be popular? It's a tough question that spurs a worthy debate. One that truly forces a restaurateur to ask themselves if they're doing everything right. But at the end of the day, in our experience, restaurants most concerned about this are the often the ones that either aren't consistently executing the ABCs of what makes a restaurant great: great food, great service, and great value; or, they're not effectively marketing their own brand and are comfortable outsourcing a sub-par strategy to somebody else so "marketing" can be checked off the to-do list.


If this were not true, then this would not be possible (see screenshot) in a highly competitive restaurant market. Those flag icons are online reservations, and a testimate that people don't go out to eat so they can use a reservation system. They go out to eat because they want what the restaurant offers. Period. When a restaurant does lose business, at any time, for any reason, the cold hard truth is there's something missing in the execution of their ABCs or the efforts applied to effectively getting the local dining community's attention.
