Every missed call is a table someone else fills.

You opened a restaurant to look after the people in the room.

But at eight on a Friday the phone rings while your host is seating a table of six.

The call goes unanswered, the guest tries the place next door, and you never find out.

There's a better way.

(Why it matters)

Guests still call. Most give up if nobody answers.

(Features)

What your guests hear. What your team sees.

(01)Calls

Try a call with Amira.

The browser demo is live. Try a booking or a change of plan, then review the setup and testing your restaurant's phone connection needs.

(02)Your floor

Books the table, then says “booked”.

Checks configured table capacity, dining time and booking start times. When a time is full, it can offer an available alternative before saving the booking.

(03)Your team

Your team steps in only when it matters.

Bookings land in your book as Onla takes them. Allergies, complaints and special requests become a request your team claims and resolves, linked to the booking.

(04)Changes

Changes the booking, in the guest's language.

A regular calls to make her table a table for four, in Arabic. Onla finds her booking, changes it and reads back what it saved. Your book updates in place.

(05)Private events

Books the private room, then hands your team the follow-up.

A birthday dinner for twelve, by chat. Onla checks the room, saves the booking, and records the menu and deposit for your team to send.

(Going live)

Set up for you. Tested before it answers.

Nothing about your number changes. We load your restaurant and run test calls with you before Onla picks up for a single guest.

  1. 01

    A walkthrough

    We go through your phone setup and your booking rules together: tables, turn times, start times, and what should reach your team.

    Menu, hours, floor plan and house rules. Your number stays as it is; calls reach Onla through forwarding.

  3. 03

(Integrations)

Works with what your restaurant already uses.

Alerts reach your managers on WhatsApp, Slack, Teams or Telegram. Zapier, Make and n8n pass every booking on to your other systems and bring theirs back. Connect them yourself from your dashboard, or we set them up with you.

(What the phone costs)

Your restaurant gets about 40 booking calls a day, and around 1 in 5 rings out while your team is busy. A typical table is 3 guests spending about AED 120 each.

(FAQ)

Asked before the walkthrough.

Something else on your mind? Ask in the chat, or bring it to your walkthrough.

If a guest asks for a person or the request goes beyond the floor rules, Onla records a follow-up request with the conversation context. Your team reviews the request and contacts the guest; recording it does not mean a callback has already happened.
