AI Sales System for Restaurants & Cafes
Automate catering sales, event bookings, and corporate partnerships. Your AI agent handles proposals, follow-ups, and upselling while your team focuses on creating great food.
Why Restaurants Miss Revenue Opportunities
Your kitchen runs like clockwork, but sales fall through the cracks when the phone rings during dinner rush.
Catering Inquiries Pile Up During Service
Your best catering leads call during lunch and dinner rushes. Staff are too busy plating and serving to answer the phone, let alone close a $5,000 catering order.
Corporate Events Need Fast Proposals
Companies planning office lunches, holiday parties, or client dinners want proposals within hours. If you take two days, they've already booked your competitor down the street.
Phone Goes to Voicemail During Rush
During peak hours, 40-60% of calls go unanswered. Each missed call could be a private event, a corporate account, or a large group reservation worth hundreds or thousands.
Staff Can't Sell While Serving
Your waitstaff and hosts are hospitality professionals, not salespeople. They take orders — they don't proactively pitch catering packages or corporate lunch programs to walk-ins.
Seasonal Promotions Need Outreach
Valentine's Day prix fixe, holiday catering menus, summer patio events — these promotions require proactive outreach to past clients, but who has time to call 200 contacts?

Start Free TrialFrequently Asked Questions
Common questions from restaurant owners considering AI sales automation.
Can the AI handle dietary requirements and allergen questions?
Yes. The AI knows your complete menu including ingredients, allergens, and dietary labels (vegan, gluten-free, halal, kosher). It answers detailed dietary questions accurately and flags special requirements for your kitchen team.
How does it generate quotes for different group sizes?
The AI uses your pricing tiers and per-person rates to calculate quotes instantly. Whether it's a 10-person board lunch or a 200-person wedding reception, it factors in minimum orders, service fees, and setup costs automatically.
Does it work during busy service hours?
That's exactly when it shines. While your staff focuses on dine-in guests, the AI handles every incoming call, WhatsApp message, and website inquiry — no more missed opportunities during rush hours.
Can it take regular table reservations too?
Absolutely. The AI handles standard reservations alongside catering and event inquiries. It checks availability, confirms party size, notes special requests, and sends confirmation messages — all automatically.
How do seasonal menu updates work?
Update your menus in the Vendo AI dashboard whenever they change. New items, seasonal specials, and price adjustments reflect immediately across all AI conversations — voice, text, and presentations.
Can it upsell during conversations?
Yes. The AI is trained on your upsell strategies — suggesting premium packages, drink pairings, dessert add-ons, and upgraded event spaces based on the client's budget and preferences, naturally within conversation.
