Why Restaurant Booking?

Restaurants lose reservations every day because the phone goes unanswered during rush hours, texts don't get replied to until it's too late, and online booking systems feel impersonal. Meanwhile, diners increasingly prefer texting over calling — but most restaurants don't have the staff to monitor texts alongside everything else happening in a busy service.

The Iris AI Restaurant Booking Agent handles all inbound reservation requests via text message, instantly and 24/7. When a diner texts to book a table, the agent checks real-time availability, confirms the date, time, party size, and any special requests (dietary restrictions, high chairs, outdoor seating), and sends a booking confirmation — all within seconds of the initial text.

Beyond reservations, the agent answers common questions about your menu, dietary accommodations, parking, dress code, and private event options. On the day of the reservation, it sends a reminder to reduce no-shows. And when cancellations come in, it automatically offers the slot to the next person on the waitlist, keeping your tables full.

Frequently asked questions

How do diners make a reservation?
Diners text your restaurant's number with their booking request. The agent engages in a natural conversation to confirm date, time, party size, and any special requests, then sends a confirmation. It takes under 60 seconds.
Can it handle special dietary requests?
Yes. The agent can answer questions about menu items, allergen information, vegetarian/vegan options, gluten-free availability, and other dietary accommodations based on the information you provide.
Does it send day-of reminders?
Yes. Each booked reservation gets a confirmation text immediately and a reminder on the day of the reservation (timing configurable). This significantly reduces no-show rates.
Can it manage a waitlist?
Yes. When fully booked, the agent adds diners to a waitlist and automatically offers openings when cancellations come in — keeping your tables full without manual management.
