At the door

Guests leave when the wait is long: Keep walk-ins from walking out.
No-shows and late parties: Cut empty tables you held for nobody.
Still using a paper waitlist: Move the list to a tablet without buying anything.
Short-staffed at the host stand: Let one host run the door on a busy night.

In the kitchen

Tables take too long to turn: Get food started sooner without rushing guests.
Tickets get lost or slow: Get orders to the line faster and clearer.
Sold-out items keep getting ordered: Tell the whole room about an 86 at once.

Bringing people in

Slow weeknights: Fill the room on Tuesday without deep discounts.
Happy hour nobody knows about: Get specials in front of people nearby tonight.
Marketing on a small budget: Low-cost ways to reach local diners.
Bars on slow nights: Karaoke, trivia, game nights and specials people can find.
