One shows products. The other participates in the operation and follows the order until sale.
THE digital menu or table ordering system reduces steps between the customer’s desire and the order, but its value is not just in the QR Code. The solution needs to fit into the salon, the kitchen, the cashier and the relationship with the consumer.
What is a digital menu
It is a digital version of the menu, normally accessed via QR Code or link. It can make it easier to consult products, prices, photos and information.
What is a table ordering system
In addition to presenting the menu, it allows you to select items, extras and observations, send the identified order to the operation and, depending on the configuration, support new orders and payment.
The difference is in the flow
- menu: informs;
- request: records the intention;
- integration: connects salon and operation;
- data: help measure consumption and opportunities.
Which solution to choose
If the need is simply to replace the printed menu, a menu may suffice. If a restaurant wants to reduce waiting, sell more per table and connect orders to operations, they need to evaluate an integrated ordering solution.
THE Receive at the Table was created to connect orders, new consumption and payment to restaurant operations, as part of the Mosaico Food ecosystem.
FAQ
Can the customer still be served by the waiter?
Yes. The digital channel supports repetitive tasks and makes staff more available for hospitality, recommendations and special needs.
Is the QR Code the product?
No. It is the means of access. The product is the integrated flow of order, operation, upsell, payment and data.
Conclusion
Technology in food service makes sense when it reduces friction for the customer and increases clarity for the operation. The best channel is one that works with experience, not against it.
