Restaurant Automation, Reservations & QR Experiences
LeadCora is more than an AI phone answering service. It's a connected restaurant inquiry, reservation, ordering, and customer engagement solution — from the first call to the review.
What we hear from this industry
Why restaurants lose customers:
Unanswered calls during busy hours
Staff can't answer every call mid-service.
Repetitive questions
Hours, menu, location, reservations, and availability repeat constantly.
Missed reservation requests
Reservation requests slip through when phones ring off the hook.
Abandoned calls
Customers hang up when nobody answers.
Staff time on routine calls
Team members spend hours answering the same questions.
Inconvenient menu access
Customers expect quick, app-free menu and ordering access.
Missed feedback opportunities
Restaurants miss chances to collect reviews.
How LeadCora works for restaurants
The connected restaurant solution:
A. AI Restaurant Phone Agent — Cora Voice
Cora Voice can be configured to answer incoming restaurant calls, provide approved information about the restaurant, answer common questions about opening hours, location, menu, and services, collect reservation requests (customer name, phone number, party size, date, requested time), handle configured reservation workflows, transfer or escalate calls when required, and send a follow-up confirmation or request acknowledgment through configured channels.
- Answers calls when staff are busy
- Collects reservation requests — not confirmed bookings
- Transfers to staff when required
- Never guarantees a table unless a real booking system confirms it
B. Automated SMS Replies & Follow-ups
Send an instant response to missed calls or new inquiries, acknowledge reservation requests, send reservation confirmations where supported, send reminders, send relevant follow-ups, and provide configured restaurant information through SMS.
C. Automated Email
Reservation inquiry acknowledgments, booking confirmations where supported, email reminders, customer inquiry responses, and follow-up communication.
D. Restaurant Website Forms
Customers can submit table reservation requests, private dining inquiries, event and group booking requests, catering inquiries, and general questions. Forms connect to LeadCora's follow-up workflow.
E. Website Chatbot
Customers can ask about restaurant information, access menu information, ask common questions, submit inquiries, request a reservation, and be guided to the correct booking method.
1. QR Menu Display
A QR code that takes guests straight to your approved digital menu on their phones — no app install. The restaurant provides its approved menu; LeadCora configures the menu experience and generates unique QR codes for tables or other placements.
- Static menu access
- No ordering required
- Unique QR per placement
2. QR Menu Ordering
Builds on the QR menu with an ordering workflow: guests browse categories, select items and quantities, choose table or pickup (as configured), submit the order, and receive an order reference. The restaurant manages orders in its dashboard (received → accepted → preparing → ready → completed/cancelled).
- Requires a configured restaurant menu
- Table and pickup modes — configurable
- No POS, payment, or kitchen integration claimed
3. QR Google Review System
Configure your restaurant's verified Google review destination; LeadCora generates a QR code pointing to it. Place it on tables, receipts, packaging, or counter displays so every guest can leave an honest review with one scan.
- One honest destination for every customer
- Makes leaving a review easier
- No gating, incentives, or fabricated reviews
QR menu display and QR ordering are separate services. Payment processing, POS synchronization, live item availability, and order management are not claimed unless a real integration exists.

Example scenarios
Saturday evening rush
The dining room is full and phones are ringing. Cora Voice answers, provides today's hours and a menu overview, and collects a reservation request for a party of four with a preferred time. The host sees it in the request queue and confirms through the booking system — the guest then receives the confirmation by SMS.
QR ordering at the table
A guest scans the QR code on the table, views the approved digital menu, and submits an order through the configured ordering workflow. The kitchen receives the order through the supported notification channel.

Build This Solution for My BusinessCommon questions
Does Cora Voice guarantee reservations?
No. It collects reservation requests. A reservation is only confirmed when your authorized booking system confirms it.
Is QR ordering live?
QR menu display and QR ordering are configured services. Order placement requires a configured ordering workflow; we don't claim payment processing, POS sync, or live item availability unless verified.
How do the QR Google reviews work?
You provide your verified Google review destination; the QR code points every guest to that same honest review page. We never gate reviews on satisfaction or offer incentives.
