Take reservations without spreadsheets or missed calls.
A physical reservation book gets messy in the third round of edits. Spreadsheets don’t warn you about double-bookings. Dines gives your restaurant a proper reservation surface that lives inside the same platform as the floor plan — so held tables stay held and the floor manager knows exactly what’s coming.
What you get
Online reservations
Guests reserve a table from your site with date, time and party size.
Table holds
The floor view marks a reserved slot on the specific table until the guest arrives.
Guest lookup
Look up an upcoming reservation by phone or booking code.
No double-booking
The system checks capacity + open slots before confirming.
Manager confirmations
Optional manual confirmation step for high-value reservations.
Why it matters
- Every reservation lives with the table — no separate spreadsheet to reconcile.
- Fewer missed bookings — the floor knows what’s reserved for tonight.
- Cleaner turnover — upcoming reservations are visible before the previous party leaves.
