The Challenges Restaurant Owners Face

In today’s dining market, reputation drives foot traffic. A few bad reviews or too few ratingscan make potential guests choose another spot. Meanwhile, managing reservations by phone often leads to missed bookings, no-shows, and wasted tables.

Marketing is another hurdle — sending out promotions takes time, and email blasts often go unread. Without quick and direct communication, restaurants struggle to fill seats on slow nights or promote seasonal specials.

How Surge Helps Restaurants Stay Packed

Surge makes it easy to keep your tables full and your reputation strong. With Reputation Management, you can automatically request reviews from happy diners and showcase the feedback that attracts new guests. The built-in Appointment Schedulingtool doubles as a reservations system, complete with reminders to reduce no-shows. And with Email & SMS Marketing, you can send promotions that actually get seen, from daily specials to loyalty rewards.

With Surge, you can:

  • Build a stronger reputation with automated review requests through Reputation Management
  • Simplify reservations and reduce no-shows using Appointment Scheduling with reminders
  • Drive repeat business by sending promotions directly with Email & SMS Marketin
Online appointment booking interface for Great Smiles Dentistry, featuring calendar view with available time slots, and buttons for booking and confirming appointments, illustrating seamless scheduling process.
Chat interface showing two-way SMS messaging for scheduling appointments, featuring conversation snippets about eye exams, insurance inquiries, and appointment confirmations, emphasizing quick responses and customer engagement.

Why Restaurants Choose Surge
