Restaurants & Food Service

Your restaurant's
AI host — on WhatsApp

Take reservations, answer menu questions, handle catering inquiries, and manage delivery orders 24/7. Most customers reach out via WhatsApp — Reply Flow's AI agent speaks their language.

Use Cases

Every customer conversation,
handled intelligently.

Table Reservations

Check availability via connector, confirm booking

"What time can you seat 4 people on Friday?" The agent checks your system, confirms availability, and holds the table. Customer gets an instant confirmation with their reservation details. No back-and-forth, no missed bookings.

Menu & Allergen Questions

Answer from knowledge base with full menu uploaded

"Is your pasta gluten-free?" "What's in the special sauce?" The agent pulls from your uploaded menu, dietary info, and recipe details. Builds customer confidence, reduces liability concerns, and deflects routine calls to your team.

Catering Inquiries

Qualify lead, hand off to manager with follow-up chain

"Can you cater an event for 80 people?" The agent qualifies the lead, captures event date/budget/dietary needs, and hands off to your catering manager with full context. Manager doesn't start from scratch — customer feels attended to, not passed around.

After-Hours & Delivery

Acknowledge, share hours, take reservation for tomorrow

Customer texts at 11 PM. Agent acknowledges, shares opening time, and offers to hold a table for tomorrow. For delivery orders, the agent takes details and routes them to your order system. No missed sales, no manual data entry.

WhatsApp-First

Meet customers
where they already
are.

Your customers are already on WhatsApp. No app downloads. No new habit to build. They message you the same way they message friends.

  • QR scan setup: Print a WhatsApp QR code on your menu, napkins, or door. Customers scan and start chatting instantly.
  • Voice notes: Customers record quick voice messages instead of typing. Perfect for busy diners placing orders or asking questions on the go.
  • Image sharing: Share menu photos, dish specials, or event setup directly. No separate email chain or link hunting.

Reach growing audience

Thread history is automatic. Agent and staff see the full conversation — no "start over" moments for the customer.

Trusted channel

WhatsApp end-to-end encryption builds trust. Customers feel safe sharing dietary needs, event details, and payment info.

No spam risk

Multi-Agent Routing

Organized like
your restaurant.

An Intake Agent reads every message and sends it to the right Supervisor Agent. Each Supervisor Agent holds its own Specialist Agents for the specific requests guests make.

Specialist Agents inside “Reservations”

When a guest messages, the Reservations Supervisor Agent picks the specialist for the exact request — each with its own instructions, knowledge base, and handoff rules.

Every Supervisor Agent works the same way

Menu & Allergens, Catering & Events, and Orders & Delivery each hold their own Specialist Agents — built exactly like the Reservations ones above. The Intake Agent routes every message to the right one, and any specialist hands off to your team the moment a person should step in.

Memories

The agent learns
and remembers.

Preferences

"Remember: allergic to nuts." On the next visit, the agent proactively mentions nut-free options and flags allergens in specials.

Seating

Regular Friday dinner customer? Agent notes "prefers window table" and offers it without being asked. Feels personal, not intrusive.

Party Size

"Always books for 4 on weekends, 2 on weeknights." Agent tailors availability suggestions and menu recommendations accordingly.

Privacy by design: All customer data is scoped to your company and encrypted at rest. Reply Flow never shares customer information between tenants. You own the memory — the agent just makes it useful.
