Table Allocation: The Perfect Table, Every Time

Overview

There is a small brain sitting inside your floor plan, always thinking. It knows which table is perfect for the couple celebrating their anniversary. It knows where to seat the business dinner so they have privacy. And it knows how to fit in one more four-top on a fully booked Saturday night without anyone feeling rushed.

This is the merge of two things that rarely come together: the emotional intuition of a great host and the mathematical precision of an optimizer. Elyra's Table Allocation does both at once.

How It Works

When a booking comes in, the allocation engine evaluates your entire floor plan. It considers party size, guest history, occasion, preferences from past visits, and your own seating rules. It places guests where they will have the best experience while maximizing every table in the house.

The result is simple: you say yes to more bookings. Most restaurants turn guests away because their booking system cannot see the possibility. Elyra finds the table that others miss.

When you are happy with a layout, lock it. The AI stops reshuffling and your team runs the service exactly as planned. Unlock it when you want the system to adapt again.

Key Benefits
