LIVE DEMO — RESTAURANTS

The phone rings during the dinner rush. Nobody has to grab it.

Every restaurant knows the sound: the phone ringing while every host seats guests and every hand carries plates. The AI answers every call and chat — books the table into your real calendar, answers the menu and allergy questions from YOUR published menu, and takes the large-party request completely.

Friday, 7:40 PM: the line that used to ring out, answered — tables booked, no host pulled away.

One day with the AI

Three moments from a typical restaurants front office — handled while your team does the human part.

7:40 PM · Mid-service, mid-rush

Saturday service at full tilt. The AI answers the booking call, checks the real table calendar, books the 9 PM two-top and confirms by text — no host left the floor.

10:50 AM · The birthday for sixteen

A caller plans a birthday dinner for sixteen. The AI captures date, headcount and requests completely, explains your published group menu, and routes the private-dining details to your manager.

9:15 PM · The allergy double-check

“Is the risotto gluten-free?” Answered exactly from your published menu notes — and where the menu is silent, the AI says so and offers to have the kitchen confirm. Never a guess about an allergen.

What it does for you

The host stand, unburdened

Bookings, cancellations, running-late calls and directions answered 24/7 — in the caller’s language, synced to your table calendar.

Menu questions by the book

Ingredients, allergens, tasting-menu details — only what your published menu says, identically on every call.

Groups and events, captured

Large-party and private-dining requests taken completely — date, headcount, budget notes — and routed to your events contact by your rules.

Watch it answer during the rush

The demo takes the Saturday-service booking call, the sixteen-top request and the allergen question — configured for a restaurant. Your personal version, with your menu and your table rules, lands in your inbox in about two minutes.

Asked in your callers’ own words

Real question types from this business — and what the AI does with each. Grounded in YOUR approved knowledge: no source, no claim.

“Table for four tonight around eight?”

Reads the real availability, books what fits, confirms by text — and waitlists by your rules when the book is full.

“Do you have vegan options?”

Answers from your published menu — the dishes you actually list, never an invented accommodation.

“What’s the corkage fee?”

Your published policy, verbatim — one answer, every caller, every language.

Answering services take messages. Booking engines wait for guests to click. The Zanus AI front office ANSWERS — phone and chat, in the guest’s language, books into your real calendar, and never guesses beyond your approved house knowledge.

Questions, answered

We use a reservation platform already.

Keep it — the AI books into the calendars you run and answers the calls your platform cannot. Voicemail is what it replaces, not your book.

Allergy questions scare us.

Good — the AI is stricter than a busy host: it reads your published menu notes verbatim or says the kitchen must confirm. The claim guard never lets it improvise about food safety.

The Front Office answers. The Back Office executes.

This demo is the AI that answers — phone, chat, quotes, bookings. The work INSIDE your restaurant — documents, tasks, procedures, automations — is Back Office AI, specialized for Hospitality. Most companies run both: one AI answering, one AI executing.
