"Book me a table" and "I want to order food" are two different things — the AI never confuses them.
A restaurant takes table reservations and also runs real food ordering from its own menu — pickup, delivery, or at the table. Here's exactly what happens when a guest messages on WhatsApp.
Booking a table for dinner
Guest asks for a table
"Table for 4 tonight at 8, we have a birthday."
AI books it with the occasion noted
A real slot confirmed, with the special occasion attached for the host to see.
Confirmed on WhatsApp
No phone tag — confirmed instantly, in the same chat.
Ordering food — a completely different flow
A guest asking to see the menu isn't asking for a reservation — the AI treats it as its own conversation.
Guest asks to order
"Can I see the menu? I want to order delivery."
Real menu, real items
Categories, items, sizes, and add-ons — the actual structured menu, not a static PDF.
Order placed and tracked
The order moves through the kitchen's own board — pending, confirmed, preparing, ready.
Two workflows, cleanly separated
Real structured menu
Categories, items, variations, and add-on groups — built once, quoted accurately every time.
Catering goes through a quote
A large or custom-menu event is never squeezed into a normal order — it's priced properly first.
Waitlist for full tables
A cancellation automatically offers the freed table to the next person waiting.
