A large menu, fast service, a daily special that changes. The digital menu updates in real time and saves time in the dining room. Table ordering with no commission.
A brasserie has to hold together a wide menu, with its starters, mains, set menus, desserts and the day's blackboard, and a service that moves fast, especially at lunch. The waiter only has time to come by once for the order and once for the bill.
The daily special is the everyday headache. It changes each morning, and in a large room the blackboard cannot be read from the back or from the terrace, so each waiter announces it at every one of their tables. Over fifty covers at lunch, that is a lot of time spent repeating the same thing.
The bill is the other moment when things get stuck. At the end of service, a guest in a hurry who waits five minutes for the bill to arrive is a table that is not turning, and a guest who will be less keen to come back.
You add it from your phone at 11 am, with its photo. It is on everyone's menu, in its own category, including for the table at the back that cannot see the blackboard, and you take it off in the evening.
A menu in photos gets browsed while people settle in. When the waiter comes by, the table knows what it wants, and the order is taken without a second trip.
With table ordering in Complete, the guest pays from their phone at the moment they order. The table is free as soon as they have finished, without waiting for someone to be available to take payment.
Starter and main, main and dessert, and the full three courses have their own category, with their prices, instead of a note at the foot of the menu. The guest in a hurry sees them on opening the menu.
The guest scans the QR code and your menu opens on their phone, with no app to install.
Screens from RestoAll on a sample restaurant with fictional data, most of them from the French version.
Here, the best option is one laminated card per table, visible as soon as the guest sits down, with no change to how you lay the table. It is offered as an extra. The thirty stickers included in the subscription are fine if you keep your paper menu, since they stick onto it.
Not every service earns its place in every trade, and we would rather tell you before you have paid. Online booking and reviews are in Essential; loyalty, table ordering and Click & Collect are in Complete.
Most useful
At lunch, it is the bill that holds tables up. The guest scans the QR code, chooses, enters their table and pays, then the order shows up in the app with the table number. When they have finished, they get up, and the table is relaid for the next guest. The money goes straight to your account, with no commission.
Very good fit
With a large room, two services and groups, each booking takes its table on the floor plan, and before they come the guest receives a reminder with a button to confirm. For large weekend parties, a card imprint cuts down on booked tables that stay empty, once your Stripe account is connected.
Good fit at lunch
In an office district, lunch comes back every week. The guest signs up once with their phone number, a visit is counted when they scan the table's QR code during service or pay for an order from the menu, and your guest list shows you who has lunch with you every week.
Good fit
A city-centre brasserie sees a lot of passing trade, people who chose on Google Maps as they walked. The button to your profile is offered to all of them from the menu, in their language, and the message from anyone who would rather write to you in private arrives in the app. This service is part of Essential.
The photo menu, the thirty QR codes and online booking are in Essential at €49.99 a month. Table ordering, Click & Collect and loyalty come with Complete at €99.99. Everything is open during the thirty-day trial.
