Every wasted minute at the host stand costs you covers
When your dining room consistently hits 75%+ capacity, manual table management breaks down. Industry data shows that manual seating Tetris and inefficient table turns can leave up to 15% of your daily revenue potential sitting in the lobby. Every minute your host spends staring at a screen trying to piece together a seating puzzle is a minute they aren't delivering the personalized hospitality your brand is known for.
