For restaurants that pick up the phone

Your restaurant is losing bookings right now.

Every missed call is a table that stays empty. DineLine answers your phone 24/7, takes bookings, and handles the questions your staff shouldn't have to.

60%

of restaurant calls go unanswered during peak hours. That's real money walking out the door.

23 sec

Average time DineLine takes to complete a booking. No hold music, no "can you spell that again?"

24/7

Calls answered at 2am, on Christmas, during the lunch rush. Your phone never rings out again.

The problem

Your staff can't cook and answer phones at the same time.

The dinner rush hits. The phone rings. And rings. Your sous chef picks up with one hand while plating with the other, gets the booking wrong, and the customer shows up to no table on Friday night.

Or worse — nobody picks up at all. The customer calls the place down the road instead. You never even knew they tried.

Common questions

Will my customers know it's not a real person?

Most won't. DineLine uses natural, conversational speech — not a robotic voice. It handles interruptions, clarifications, and even small talk. We always recommend transparency though, and can include a brief disclosure if you prefer.

What if a caller has a complicated request?

DineLine handles the vast majority of calls. For anything it can't resolve — a complaint, a large event inquiry, something unusual — it takes a message and texts you immediately so you can call back.

How long does setup take?

Typically under 24 hours. We need your menu, hours, and booking rules. We handle all the technical setup — you don't need to install anything or change your systems.

Can I keep my existing phone number?

Yes. We set up call forwarding from your current number, so nothing changes for your customers. Or we can give you a new dedicated line.

What happens if I want to cancel?

Cancel anytime from your dashboard. No contracts, no exit fees, no awkward phone call with a retention team. We'll even help you transition back.
