Call our AI receptionist and ask about common questions, urgent calls, lead capture, scheduling, and transfers for your organization.
Why restaurants lose calls.
Your staff cannot serve guests at the counter and answer every incoming question at the same time.
Hours, directions, menu questions and reservation requests pull the team away from guests who are already there.
A caller planning an event often contacts several restaurants and moves forward with the first helpful answer.
CallWatch AI answers in your restaurant name using your approved hours, location, menu information, reservation policy and catering details. It captures requests clearly and sends the information to your team for follow-up.
What Your Receptionist Handles
Set up from your answers, so a caller with a guest calling about a large dinner reservation gets a real answer.
- What time are you open?
- Do you take reservations?
- Do you have vegetarian or gluten-conscious options?
- Can you accommodate a large party?
- Do you offer catering or private events?
- Name and callback number
- Requested date and time
- Party size
- Reservation or catering request
- Dietary questions in the caller's words
- Best time for follow-up
A same-day large-party or catering request can be flagged for immediate follow-up by the manager on duty.

Questions restaurants ask us
Can it take reservations?
It can capture the request or use your approved scheduling workflow when that feature is included in your plan.
Will it invent menu or allergy information?
No. It only shares the menu and policy information you approve and directs sensitive questions to your staff.
Can it handle catering leads?
Yes. It captures the event details your team needs and sends a clear lead for follow-up.
Can I keep my existing business number?
Yes. You keep the number your customers already have and forward it to your CallWatch AI line — all the time, after hours, or only when you cannot pick up.
Can I still answer calls myself?
Always. Forwarding is yours to turn on and off, and you can have CallWatch AI answer only the calls you do not reach first.
Does CallWatch AI answer every call or only missed and after-hours calls?
That is your choice. Some businesses forward everything, others only after hours, weekends and overflow.
Will callers know they are speaking with AI?
If a caller asks, your receptionist says plainly that it is your business's virtual receptionist. It never claims to be a person.
What happens if CallWatch AI does not know an answer?
It says it will have someone follow up, takes the caller's details and the question, and sends it to you rather than guessing.
Can it transfer urgent calls to a real person?
Yes on Growth and High Volume. You define what counts as urgent, and those calls are transferred to the number you choose instead of becoming a message.
Can it schedule, reschedule or cancel appointments?
Yes on Growth and High Volume. Connect your Google or Outlook calendar and it works from the availability, durations and notice periods you set.
How is my AI receptionist trained?
From your website, the setup questions you answer, and anything you add later — notes, price lists or documents. Nothing goes live until you approve it.
More Calls Handled. More Opportunities Captured. Less to Worry About.
Your business stays responsive and consistent, even when you cannot answer.
