Built around service
Good hospitality starts before the guest arrives.
Plan the phone experience as carefully as the dining room: a welcoming first answer, the right person and a clear next step.
The dinner rush doesn’t wait
When the host is seating a party and the phone rings again, your team has to choose where to focus. Plan a call flow for reservation questions, pickup inquiries and manager requests, with a clear fallback when the front desk is busy. Keep the experience consistent across shifts.
Catering needs a different conversation
A quick question about tonight’s hours is not the same as a private dining or catering inquiry. Give those conversations a distinct path to the right person. Capture the caller’s request for follow-up without suggesting that a phone inquiry is already a confirmed booking.
One guest, more than one location
If you operate multiple Chicago locations, callers need to reach the restaurant they intended. Build routing around each location’s real hours, responsibilities and staff coverage. Review what happens before opening, during a shift change and after closing rather than relying on one generic greeting.
Your restaurant, connected
From the first ring to the next shift.
Choose the capabilities that fit your operation. Plan, number and configuration availability should be confirmed with your VoxSun contact.
Greeting → guest request
A clear welcome
Shape greetings and menu options around reservations, pickup questions, private events and the manager on duty.
Open / closed / special hours
Hours-aware routing
Plan separate call paths for service hours, closed periods and special schedules using your approved operating hours.
Host stand → manager
The right team member
Discuss ring groups, transfers and fallback handling for the host stand, catering contact and restaurant manager.
VoxSun Pro · inbound
Inbound AI reception
Explore VoxSun Pro for configured inbound questions and routing. Booking or order changes need a confirmed connection and workflow.
Request → permitted follow-up
Guest follow-up
Review business messaging availability for your plan and number. Confirm consent, supported destinations and registration before sending.
Call outcome → next action
A clearer shift handoff
Explore call activity and follow-up workflows so the next team member can see what needs attention. Confirm the fields your setup supports.
BoostMyDeal · outbound sales
Keep catering conversations moving.
Explore an outbound follow-up workflow for eligible, permissioned inquiries. This is separate from VoxSun Pro’s inbound reception; capabilities and availability must be confirmed.
Catering inquiries
Follow up on an inquiry where you have the required permission.
Private dining requests
Qualify the request before a team member discusses availability.
Human handoff
Explore Hot Transfer to a configured staff member when available.
Approved conversations
Use restaurant-approved scripts, questions and escalation rules.
Defined outcomes
Agree what counts as interested, unavailable or needing a callback.
Connected follow-up
Confirm which actions your tools and approved mappings support.
Hot Transfer: bring your team into the conversation
Discuss a configured handoff to your catering contact. A transfer is not a confirmed reservation, event booking or availability guarantee.

Local communications considerations for Chicago
Build the setup around the restaurant you actually operate—not a generic city label.
- Chicago service hours
- Use America/Chicago for local schedules. Review daylight-saving changes, holiday closures and after-hours routing for each restaurant.
- Illinois and federal review
- Have your intended recording, outbound calling and messaging practices reviewed before activation. Confirm settings and consent requirements for your use case.
- Guest information
- Decide what staff may collect, who can access it and how long to retain it. Route payment details and sensitive requests through your approved restaurant processes.
General planning considerations, not legal advice or a guarantee of compliance. Number eligibility, US pricing, taxes and product availability require confirmation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do not assume a native connection to a reservation or point-of-sale system. Review your exact platform, supported events and actions with VoxSun. Native CRM connections and workflows available through Zapier are separate paths; neither automatically confirms compatibility with your restaurant software.
No. VoxSun Pro is the inbound AI receptionist option. BoostMyDeal is the outbound AI sales agent. A restaurant should review each separately, including approved scripts, staff handoffs, supported capabilities and consent requirements.
Request a restaurant-specific quote identifying the plan, lines or licences, currency, applicable taxes, messaging availability and any optional services. No market price is stated on this reference page because the US price and tax table requires product approval.
