When to use it
- Managing a fully booked dinner service with multiple seatings
- Handling a walk-in situation during peak hours
- A VIP guest is arriving and you need to ensure a flawless experience
- A guest has a severe allergy or special request that requires kitchen coordination
- Rescheduling or cancelling a large party
- Investigating and following up on a no-show
- Building a seating chart for a 7 PM rush
Mistakes to avoid
- Seating a large party in a small table — forcing a 6-top into a table that seats 4 creates a terrible experience for the guests and the servers; respect the space constraints
- Not communicating dietary restrictions to the kitchen until the guests are seated — allergy information must reach the kitchen before orders are taken, not at the moment of ordering
- Forgetting to check the reservation notes before seating — a regular guest who was promised "the table by the window" gets seated in the back and immediately feels like they were forgotten; always check notes
- Accepting large party reservations without a deposit or card on file — for parties of 8+, a credit card or deposit protects you from no-shows that can cost $1,000+
