How should an AI receptionist handle a restaurant large-party request?
It should collect the requested date and time, party size, contact information, occasion, and approved requirements, then offer only authorized availability or send the request to a manager. It should not invent table availability or make unapproved accommodation promises.
What the customer may actually say
- “Can you take a party of twelve?”
- “It is for a birthday”
- “Do you have anything Saturday?”
A caller wants dinner for fourteen people next Friday and asks about a private area.
The receptionist identifies the restaurant and asks how it can help.
It collects the date, time, party size, name, and callback number.
It identifies the request as a large party or private-event inquiry.
It shares approved minimums, deposits, or availability language when configured.
It sends the request to the manager or event team instead of overpromising.
It tells the caller the request is pending and explains the next contact step.
