Dining rooms where service and margins both hold up

Service you can measure

Seat-to-order time and table turns are measured on camera, and slow tables alert the floor manager during service.

  • Waiting-table alerts
  • Table turn by section
  • Covers against bills

Costing for complex menus

Sub-recipes, garnishes and seasonal specials are costed from current purchase prices, so menu engineering uses real margins.

  • Sub-recipes and yields
  • Specials costed before launch
  • Contribution per dish

Bar under control

The bar runs as its own location with its own counts, and liquor is kept under state VAT separately from GST on food.

  • Pour variance
  • Separate tax treatment
  • Bottle-level counts

What changes

What teams using Casual and Fine Dining should expect to see.

  • Faster, more consistent service
  • Menu decisions on true margins
  • Bar variance you can see

Questions

Can we track service charge distribution?

If you collect service charge, its distribution to staff can be set up as a payroll component.

Does it handle reservations?

Reservations stay in your POS or reservation tool; DeepRestaurantAI uses the resulting bills and covers.
