Before you forward a call

Questions restaurants ask before they start.

Can RankLadder take reservations over the phone?+

It captures party size, date, time, and special requests on the call, then texts the details back to confirm. On Pro it can book directly on your connected calendar so the table is held without phone tag.

Can it handle catering and private-event inquiries?+

Yes. It captures headcount, date, and budget signals, then flags high-value inquiries for a fast callback while the details are still fresh, so a big event never dies in voicemail.

Can it answer questions about hours, menu, and parking?+

It answers from a knowledge base built from your website and Google profile, covering hours, location, parking, and dietary options. When it can’t answer something, it logs the question so you can add it.

Can it answer callers who don’t speak English?+

Yes, on every plan. It answers phone calls in 18 languages and switches mid-conversation as the caller does. The original transcript appears with a translation in your selected English or Spanish interface.

Will it sound like a robot to my guests?+

It tells guests it’s an assistant, speaks naturally, and handles multiple languages. Calls that need a person get transferred instead of improvised answers, and callers hear a first-ring pickup instead of your voicemail.

Do I have to change my phone number?+

No. The number on the menu, the window, and your Google listing stays put. You forward it to your dedicated RankLadder line and can unforward at any time. There’s no lock-in.
