Full House. Zero Chaos.
A table reservation system built for how restaurants actually run — take bookings from your website, Google, or the Dinemetrics app, protect against no-shows with optional cover charges, and manage every reservation’s status from confirmed to checked-in without a single phone call.

-
i
Guests expect to book online — through your website, Google, or an app — not call and wait on hold
-
ii
A no-show costs a table that could have turned twice that night
-
iii
Walk-ins and online bookings need to share the same live picture
-
iv
Peak-hour overbooking turns a good night into a bad review
How It Actually Works
Guest Books
From your website, Google, the Dinemetrics app, a walk-up kiosk, or a phone call your host logs in two taps — with allergens and special requests captured right at booking.
Table Assigns Itself
Matched automatically by party size, timing, and what’s actually free — not what the book says is free.
You Just Run Service
Reminders go out on their own, cover charges protect against no-shows, and every reservation’s status — confirmed, checked-in, no-show, cancelled — stays up to date from the floor or the manager app.
Dinemetrics vs. Running Reservations the Old Way
The Old Way
- A paper book covered in cross-outs
- “Table for four, right?” — guesswork at the door
- A no-show nobody saw coming
- Phone tag with walk-ins stuck on hold
- Two different lists for online and walk-in
- Allergies and requests scribbled on a sticky note, or forgotten
Dinemetrics
- One live floor plan everyone sees
- Auto-matched by party size and timing
- Cover charges that cut no-shows before they happen
- A status for every reservation — confirmed, checked-in, no-show, cancelled
- Guests and staff can both modify or cancel, no phone call needed
- Allergens and special requests captured at booking, visible to the kitchen
One Floor Plan. Every Device.
Host stand, servers’ tablets, your phone at home on a Saturday night, or the Dinemetrics manager app on the go — same live map, same reservation statuses, no syncing delay to explain to a confused guest.
Party size can set the rules too — require a cover charge automatically once a booking passes a threshold you choose, so a table for two stays deposit-free while an eight-top doesn’t.
What’s Actually in It
Live Floor Sync
Every seat change reflects everywhere within a second — not “usually” a second.
A Waitlist That Texts Itself
Guests get a text the moment their table opens. No one hovers by the host stand.
No Double-Bookings, Ever
Online and walk-in reservations share one source of truth, not two spreadsheets.
Cover Charges That Cut No-Shows
Take a non-refundable cover charge on booking and apply it straight to the final bill — set it to trigger only above the party size you choose.
Every Allergen and Request, Captured Upfront
Guests note allergies and special requests at booking, visible to the kitchen before they sit down.
A Status for Every Stage
Mark each reservation confirmed, checked-in, no-show, or cancelled — from the floor or the manager app.
Change Plans Without a Phone Call
Guests and staff can both modify or cancel a booking, no calls or awkward walk-backs.
Book From Anywhere
Website, Google, the Dinemetrics app, or a call your host logs in two taps.

Dinemetrics vs. Other Reservation Tools
Built for the Rush
Not built for a quiet Tuesday.
Built for a fully-booked Friday.
Most reservation tools are designed for the demo. This one’s designed for the eight-top that walked in during your busiest hour with no reservation at all.
