During service

When the room is busy, your team needs clear information: who is coming, which tables are available and who is waiting to be seated.

Reservations in one place

Receive bookings through your restaurant’s booking page and add reservations taken by phone, message or in person. Record the source while keeping each reservation in the booking list.

Availability by area and table

Set up your service areas and real table names. Open an area to see its tables, check availability and assign a suitable table yourself or use automatic assignment.

Waiting guests and drop-ins

Keep a waiting list for guests who need a table, and record drop-ins who arrive without a reservation. A reservation made at the restaurant stays in the reservation list.

Clear arrivals and departures

Mark a reservation Came when the guests arrive and Left when they leave. Give the team a shared view of the visit throughout service.

Guest details close at hand

See visit counts, guest notes and available contact details beside the booking. Recognise returning guests and keep useful information ready for the team.

Access for your team

Invite staff to work with their own accounts. Owners control team access, with permissions for different roles so each person can use the tools they need.

Guest communication

Keep the reservation details clear before a visit, and make it easier for guests to share their experience afterwards.

Guest emails require an available email address and email sending configured for your restaurant. Review requests also need your review destination set up.

Booking confirmations

Send guests the details of their reservation and keep them informed when a booking is confirmed or cancelled.

Reservation reminders

Remind guests about their confirmed reservation, including the date, time and number of guests.

Google review requests

Use the heart marker to select guests for a review request after their visit. See the selection in the booking list and manage follow-up from the dashboard.

Is DineLumen built for busy restaurants?

Yes. DineLumen is designed for restaurants, bars and lounges where service changes quickly and the team needs a clear view of bookings, tables, waiting guests and guest details.

Does DineLumen charge booking commission?

No. DineLumen uses a monthly restaurant plan. There is no booking commission and no fee per guest or reservation.

Can staff manage tables and service areas?

How are reservations, drop-ins and the waiting list different?
