Choose Elyx when OpenTable covers one part of the operation but the restaurant still needs calls answered, deposits chased, payment gaps recovered, stock pressure flagged and owner approvals handled in one place.
Elyx works the demand around the booking book: calls, deposits, no-shows, changes and guests who need a reply.
If the alternative cannot own the next action, the team still becomes the integration.
Reservations and table management
Elyx handles reservations too, but keeps the call, deposit, reminder, waitlist and payment work attached.
AI voice agent for live calls
Elyx answers the phone, checks rules and availability, takes deposits and escalates with context when needed.
Direct ordering, POS and hardware
Elyx can provide branded ordering, POS hardware, table QR/NFC, kiosks and payment flows.
Deposit, no-show and payment recovery
Elyx keeps deposit rules, checkout links, reminders, no-show risk and recovery tasks visible before service.
Menu, stock and supplier pressure
Elyx connects stock, recipes, invoices, supplier notes and sales mix so margin pressure is caught early.
One owner operating brief
Elyx gives the owner one brief across bookings, calls, payments, menus, stock, suppliers and guest follow-up.
The demo should show which calls, payments, stock signals and owner approvals can move without adding another daily dashboard.
