The phone rings mid-rush. Nobody on the floor can take it.
A packed dining room and a ringing phone don't mix — someone calling to book a table or ask about tonight's menu doesn't wait for a free hand at the host stand. OneConvo answers every call, handles the reservation, and routes anything urgent to your team.
A missed reservation call is a table that sits empty
Callers booking a table, asking about a group reservation, or checking tonight's hours are deciding in the moment — if nobody picks up, they book somewhere else. Peak hours are exactly when your team has the least time to answer, and exactly when the call matters most.
-
Answers every call, 24/7
Lunch rush, dinner rush, or last call — the line stays covered without pulling anyone off the floor.
-
Books straight to your calendar
Takes reservations and group bookings against your real availability, no double-booking a table.
-
Knows your business, not a script
Hours, menu highlights, private dining policies — trained on what you actually tell callers.
-
Flags urgent calls immediately
A large party or a catering enquiry gets routed to a manager instead of getting stuck in a queue.
What a call actually sounds like.

What OneConvo doesn't do — on purpose.
No fine print later. Here's the honest scope of what restaurants get, so there's no surprise after setup.
- OneConvo takes reservations and answers questions over the phone — it doesn't take food orders or process payments.
- It's built for the phone line, not the host stand — it won't replace someone greeting walk-in guests in person.
- For large events or custom private-dining requests, it collects the details and flags the call for a manager rather than confirming complex bookings on its own.
- Like any AI system, it can occasionally mishear an unusual name — every call is logged with a transcript so you can review and correct it.

What it costs for restaurants.
A single-location restaurant taking under roughly 200 reservation calls a month usually fits the Starter plan. Busier restaurants running private dining, events, or multiple lines typically need Growth or Pro for the extra call minutes.
Restaurants FAQ.

It can take the initial details — party size, date, occasion — and either confirm directly against your policies or flag the enquiry for a manager to follow up, depending on how you configure it.
Yes, if you provide that information during setup. OneConvo answers from what you actually tell it about your menu — not a generic script.
