“One of my favorite features of Reserve is the program's ability to auto-assign reservations to tables before the start of a shift. I didn't realize the impact of this feature until we hired a new host with very minimal experience. I didn't feel comfortable with him spreading out the reservations to set the pacing for the shift but the program did it autonomously which was very awesome.”
"We quickly saw Reserve's competitive nature shine through constant improvements and updates to their management system. We've saved so much time by switching to Reserve and immediately saw an increase in the amount of reservation covers. These folks are on the forefront of restaurant technology, they understand what restaurants need to increase revenue and deliver it. Reserve stays competitive by improving their product constantly and definitely maintain their place as one of the most advanced table management products on the market."
"For so long the industry was led by a company that took advantage of its customers charging outrageous amounts. Sometimes that monthly bill was the difference between a profit that month or a loss. Reserve gives the same type of reservation platform, better customer service and for a much fairer cost that makes much more sense."
"Mountain Standard embraced the new 'flex' style system which led to smoother services and better utilization of the dining room almost instantly. Over the last 3 months Mountain Standard has been able to consistently increase the dining room optimization on average of an extra 10% each evening. Amazing."
“With the ease of the product, our hosts are able to quickly enter guests and their information. This allows us to add more people to our list, accurately figure out wait times, and make more guests happy in the long run.”
"Working with Reserve has been a completely different experience all to the good. Communication and customer service has been excellent! And the system is very easy to operate...highly intuitive...allowing for easy training of new staff. This is our first online reservation experience (we never made it to going 'live' with the other company we were considering) and it has been enormously helpful to our staff. As a manager, I also love the stats that are available to me as we review things in hindsight and continue to make improvements to how we pace our reservations during different times of the year."
"Our relationship with Reserve feels very personal; they understand the specifics of our business and how we run. There was an adjustment when we made the transition to the updated system, but after a close eye and fine tuning for the first few weeks, we felt the system improved the way we manage our bookings."
"One of the many things that’s so great about Reserve is the service, the hospitality on your end. I know the team will be with us every step of the way, whether it's day or night. There are so many purveyors of restaurants that don’t work nights and weekends. We switched off Yelp’s product because of Reserve’s service and the understanding of the business. Reserve understands the restaurant business and we really feel like you’re on our side — that Reserve’s here for us."
"Reserve does everything from an analytic side that Open Table does. But the biggest advantage is working with a company that actually listens to their customers and reacts accordingly. Reserve understands our business and is always trying to help not raise fees for their bottom line."
"We have already saved SO MUCH MONEY! We are an extremely busy restaurant and we were averaging $1200 a month with Open Table! Our busiest month was $2000. That is some SERIOUS SAVINGS! It seems like we are doing the same amount of covers as we did with Open Table, but I will say we had our BEST DECEMBER (in sales) that we have ever had so maybe that's partly due to Reserve? We LOVE Reserve and will definitely recommend to our other restaurant friends."
"Reserve's greatest feature is the desire to be great. Integrations, optimizations, and efficiency upgrades are constant with Reserve. As early believers in the system, we did have to do some adjusting to the product as it grew, but every single time an update or upgrade was promised, it came. And often was better than expected. There is also a tremendous amount of information that you gain in a useable, real time way and using the system feels natural and intuitive. The team does a really incredible job growing with brands and listens to their partners well. Where as other systems simply treat you as a number, and are happy to charge high prices for a service that may or not fulfill all of your needs, there is a person that I can call with any and all issues and know that they will care to get it resolved. I have nothing but positive things to say about the team. Over the top positive customer service."
“One of my favorite aspects of Reserve is the Freestyle system. Moving our restaurants away from a slot based system to a system that works with a seating algorithm has been a game changer. It frees up tremendous time for me from managing large party requests, and gives me confidence that our seats and reservation times are being maximized.”
"As a multi-property manager, the shared guest data between three restaurants has allowed us to have some strong hospitality moments. Having notes from a guests experience at one property be accessible to the other properties allows us to get closer each time to providing the best possible experience for our guests. We love to know things like their personal preferences or celebrations so we can continue to fine tune our service for them. Reserve has been really welcoming to feedback, assisting us with changes or challenges, and continuing to improve their product to stay as up to date as possible."
"Reserve has simplified our online and in house reservations to the point that ANYONE in our company can take a reservation that will be placed into our list for the night with the utmost efficiency. Double booked tables are a thing of the past and tables never sit empty due to a poorly assigned dining room. Additionally, help is always a chat away and the friendly attitude of the Reserve staff has made them part of our restaurant industry family. We know each other and they consider our individual restaurant's needs when making changes to the system."
“The fixed cost per month as opposed to a per reservation fee has been incredibly impactful. The amount I used to pay per month was astronomical which had a huge effect on our bottom line, making it very hard to turn a profit. Where I used to almost want to limit the amount of reservations because I had to pay per reservation, this has allowed us to fill our books every night without the fear of the bill at the end of the month.”
