For Restaurants and hospitality
AI chatbot for restaurants — menu, reservations, hours
Half your phone calls are "do you have gluten-free options" and "what time do you close on Sundays". An Ashh bot answers both at 11pm without a host on the line.
Trained on your real menu
Upload a PDF menu or paste a CSV of items + allergens + prices. The bot answers dietary questions accurately ("what here is vegan?") without hallucinating items.
Reservation hand-off
When a visitor wants to book, the bot links them to OpenTable / Resy / your reservation system with the right party-size + date pre-filled. You configure the URL pattern in the bot settings.
Hours-aware
Tell the bot your hours (Mon-Fri 11am-10pm, Sat-Sun 9am-11pm). "Are you open right now?" gets a real answer in the visitor's timezone, including holiday adjustments.
Multi-location ready
On Pro+, run one bot per location. Each has its own menu + hours + reservation link. Or run one master bot trained on all locations with smart routing — the bot asks "which location?" first when it matters.
Questions Restaurants and hospitality ask
What if our menu changes weekly?+
Re-upload the new menu file in the dashboard — the bot picks it up within minutes. Or sync via a Google Doc / Drive folder; we re-embed nightly.
Can it answer questions in Spanish / French / etc.?+
Yes. The open-weight models we host are strong multilingual out of the box. Customer asks in Spanish, bot replies in Spanish — no per-language config needed.
How does it deal with "is the chef in tonight" or "is your patio open?" questions?+
It can't magic up information it doesn't have. Configure a fallback ("for tonight's service questions, call us at 555-1234") that fires on these. Bot defers gracefully instead of inventing answers.
Will customers actually use a chatbot on a restaurant site?+
Younger demographics (under 35) heavily prefer chat over calling. Older customers default to phone. The bot doesn't replace your phone — it captures the chat-preferring half of your traffic that would otherwise click away when no one answers.
What about Square / Toast integration?+
Not built-in. The bot can link to your Toast/Square order-online URL. Direct POS integration is on the Team-custom roadmap.
