The phone rings during the dinner rush. Nobody picks up. The party calls the restaurant down the street.
If this sounds familiar
What we hear from restaurants owners.
If three or more of these are you, MainShop fits.
Your menu PDF is from 2019. Half the items aren't on it anymore. Your prices changed. Nobody's updated the website.
Yelp reviews from a slow night are sitting unanswered. Google notices. Locals notice.
Catering inquiries get lost in your personal inbox between supplier emails. By the time you reply, they've booked someone else.
You boost a Facebook post once a quarter and pray. Meanwhile, the chef across the street is on every food blog in town.

FAQ
Questions restaurants owners ask.
Will the AI take takeout orders accurately? +
Yes — it reads your live menu (incl. modifiers like 'no onions, gluten-free bun'), confirms by SMS, and pings your kitchen ticket printer. Card on file via Stripe; pickup time auto-quoted from your prep windows.
Does it integrate with OpenTable / Resy / Tock? +
Yes for OpenTable and Resy on Marketing+, Tock on Suite. The AI checks availability live and books in your existing system. No double-bookings.
What about food allergies? +
Anything with the words 'allergy', 'allergic', or specific allergens (peanut, shellfish, etc.) immediately escalates to you. The AI never gives clinical guidance — it just confirms it'll let the kitchen know and routes the conversation to a human.
Can it route catering inquiries differently? +
Yes. Catering goes to a dedicated inbox with the AI's qualifying questions already done (date, headcount, dietary, budget, on-site or delivered). Most operators give catering its own SLA.
What about negative reviews? +
The AI drafts a thoughtful, in-your-voice reply within an hour — but anything genuinely negative (>2-star drop, complaint about service or food safety) gets queued for your approval before posting. You decide if it goes live.
