- Live menu and 86 stay in sync on the phone, chat, and pickup QR.
- Rush mode stops new orders when you are in the weeds.

See restaurant workflow
This page is focused on the workflow and value story that matters to this industry instead of generic broad claims.
One missed dining booking is $300–$1,000+. Twenty of them is a month of rent.
When nobody answers, that guest books down the street — a table, a pickup ticket, or a catering night. Sarah picks up so the check stays in your dining room.
$300–$1,000+
One unanswered dining reservation or regular. A large table or catering night is often more.
$6,000–$20,000+ / month
If about 20 of those rings go unanswered — pickup, tables, and events included.
~$5–$8 / day
VOOQIO to answer those calls and turn them into a ticket, a table, or a catering lead.
Example only — not a guarantee. Based on a $300–$1,000 dining booking and about 20 unanswered rings a month. Run your own numbers.
Calculate your missed-call ROIGuest, Sarah, and the pass stay on the same ticket — modifiers, allergy, and pay-at-counter.
Guest
Calls the shop line or scans the pickup QR. Sarah never invents items, toppings, or prices.
Sarah
Reads the live menu, skips 86’d items, asks about allergies, then confirms the order out loud.
Kitchen
Ticket #47 · 1× lunch combo · EXTRA cheese · NO onion · ALLERGY nuts · Start → Preparing → Ready → Delivered → Bump.
Live menu + 86
Sold-out items disappear from Sarah and the pickup page the moment you 86 them.
Kitchen Orders
Phone, chat, and QR tickets land on one board with prep timers and Mark paid at the counter.
Pickup page + QR
A table-tent or door QR for takeout. Guests pay at the counter — no card on the call.
Table reservations
Party size, typical table time, and overlapping parties without pulling the host off the floor.
Rush mode
One switch: stop new web and voice orders when you are in the weeds. Existing tickets stay.
Catering inbox
Large-party calls become a manager lead with date, headcount, and diet notes — not a fake catering menu.
Do you take payment on the call?
No. Guests pay at the counter. Sarah never takes a card number or sends a pay link.
Can Sarah invent menu items?
No. She only sells what is on your Restaurant Menu, including extras, “no” options, and combos.
What if we 86 the soup?
Toggle 86 on that item. Sarah and the public pickup page stop selling it immediately.
What if we are in the weeds?
Turn on Rush mode. Sarah takes a message instead of a new pickup or reservation.
Is this a POS?
No. VOOQIO takes the order and the kitchen ticket. You still collect at the counter.
Collect Google reviews without pulling staff off the floor
After a positive guest call or catering inquiry, Review Guard drafts a review request your manager can approve in one click. Happy diners get a polite SMS with your Google review link — no nagging at the table.
