No table reservation goes to waste

Calligator answers every call, responds to common questions, and captures reservation details so no guest ends up at a competitor.

- Get a summary of every call - follow up when you have time
When does Calligator answer for your restaurant?
Friday evening
It's 7 PM, the restaurant is packed, waiters are running between tables. A customer calls to book a table for tomorrow's birthday dinner. Nobody can pick up. Calligator answers, collects the details - party size, time, special requests - and passes you a ready reservation to confirm.
After-hours question
It's 11 PM, the restaurant is closed. Someone planning tomorrow's lunch wants to know if you have vegetarian options and parking. Instead of a missed call - Calligator answers their questions and leaves you their contact details to confirm the reservation in the morning.
Event enquiry
A company wants to organise a team dinner for 25 people. They call in the middle of lunch service. Calligator picks up, collects the details - date, guest count, menu preferences - and passes you the complete brief. The enquiry doesn't get lost, even though you weren't at the phone.
Common questions - Calligator for restaurants
Can Calligator confirm a table reservation right away?
Calligator collects all the details needed for a booking - date, time, party size, contact info - and passes them to you. Confirmation is on your side, so you stay in full control of table availability.
How does Calligator know our menu and opening hours?
During setup, you provide information about your restaurant - opening hours, cuisine type, menu, parking, etc. Calligator uses this in conversations with guests.
What if a customer asks something Calligator doesn't know?
Calligator captures the customer's contact details and passes the question to you in the call summary. You call back with an answer when you have time - the customer doesn't go unanswered.
Will this replace someone from the team?
No. Calligator answers when nobody can get to the phone - during rush hours, after closing, on weekends. It's an extra pair of hands, not a replacement.
