How QR ordering works in TabloSync
The restaurant places QR codes on tables. A guest scans the code and opens the restaurant menu in the browser. The guest can browse categories, choose items, add quantities, add item notes, and submit the order.
The table context stays attached to the order, helping the manager and kitchen know where the order came from.
Why restaurants use QR ordering
QR ordering helps reduce the first service delay. Guests do not have to wait for staff to hand over a menu or take the first order. Staff can spend more time serving, clearing, upselling, and handling exceptions.
For busy restaurants, this can improve table movement and reduce pressure on waiters during peak hours.
- Guests can order when they are ready.
- Menu updates can happen digitally.
- The restaurant can collect customer phone numbers with consent flows.
- Waiter and bill requests can be surfaced from the same QR experience.
How QR ordering connects to operations
QR ordering becomes more useful when it connects to KDS, manager dashboard, billing, and analytics. TabloSync keeps the order data connected so the kitchen, floor team, bill desk, and owner report are not working from separate sources.
