AI phone receptionist for restaurants

During the dinner rush nobody can get to the phone. The Autorys AI Phone Receptionist answers in English and Spanish, gives your hours, address and menu details from the information you give it, takes reservation requests and to-go orders, and sends them to you at once. It costs $149 USD per month with no setup fee, 500 minutes and a phone number included.

The problem

The phone rings when the dining room is full.

The busiest moment for calls is the same moment your staff has no hands free.

Calls during the rush

At 7 PM your staff is seating guests and running plates. The call nobody answers may have been a table of six.

The same questions all day

"Are you open?", "Do you have parking?", "Do you have vegetarian dishes?" Each one takes someone away from the floor.

Phone orders written in a hurry

A to-go order taken on a scrap of paper during the rush is easy to get wrong and hard to check later.

What it does

What it does for a restaurant.

It takes care of the phone so your staff can take care of the guests.

Reservations

Takes reservation requests

Name, phone, party size, day, time and any special request, written down and sent to you as soon as the call ends so your host can confirm.

Questions

Answers hours, location and menu questions

It answers with the information you give it: hours, address, parking, menu items, vegetarian options. If it doesn't know, it takes a message.

To-go

Writes down to-go orders

It takes the order, the name and the pickup time and sends it to you in the call report, with the recording in case you need to check.

Your staff

Passes calls to the host or the manager

During service hours it can transfer the call to up to 3 people, announcing the caller first: large parties, events or complaints.

Example call

A Friday table for six, taken during the dinner rush.

Your staff kept serving, and the request was waiting in the report.

Right after the call

  • The reservation request arrives by email and in your CRM
  • The high chair and the cake question are in the summary
  • Your host confirms with Sofia, with the recording if needed
Incoming call · answered by your AI receptionist
  1. Caller

    Hi, do you have a table for six this Friday around 7:30?

  2. AI receptionist

    Hi! I can take your reservation request. Can I have your first and last name?

  3. Caller

    Sofia Alvarez.

  4. AI receptionist

    Thank you, Sofia. Six people on Friday at 7:30 PM. Do you need anything special, like a high chair?

  5. Caller

    One high chair. And it's a birthday, can we bring a cake?

  6. AI receptionist

    I've noted the high chair and your question about the cake for the manager. The restaurant will confirm your reservation at this number.

  7. Caller

    Great, thank you.

Sample conversation. Your receptionist uses your business name, your services, your hours and the information you give it.

Every call lands in your CRM. It's included.

The CRM comes with the receptionist at no extra cost, so you can see who called and what was said, any time.

  • An email and a CRM alert as soon as the caller hangs up
  • A short AI summary: who called, what they wanted, what was booked
  • The recording and the full transcript of the call
  • Appointments go straight into your CRM calendar

It can pass the call to a person

You choose up to 3 people and the hours when calls can be transferred. It announces the caller before connecting, and if nobody picks up, it takes the message and books the appointment. For example: during service hours it passes large parties and complaints to the manager; when nobody can answer, it takes the details.

Clear rules for your business

01
It doesn't confirm what you didn't approveIt only gives the hours, menu details and prices you give it. Reservations are sent as requests so your team confirms them.
02
It doesn't take card paymentsIt never asks for card numbers by phone. Orders and reservations are paid at the restaurant, the way you already do it.
