Before it's a one-star review
The unhappy diner won't tell you.
They'll tell Google.
The cold plate, the wobbly table, the bathroom out of soap. Most diners smile, leave, and type all of it into a review from the parking lot. Put a code on the table and you hear it at the host stand instead, with minutes to spare.
Works on the phone already in their hand. Nothing to download.

“Our table won't stop rocking and the food came out cold. Server disappeared after we ordered.”
Manager shimmed the table and comped dessert before they left. 3 people at that table got a text back.

What lands on the table tent
The stuff they'd never flag to the server.
“Burger came out cold and my wife got the wrong pasta. Server never came back to check.”
table 14
“Our table rocks every time someone leans on it. Almost wore my drink twice.”
patio
“Men's room is out of paper towels and the soap's empty. Kind of gross for a place that serves food.”
restroom
“Waited 25 min for water and nobody checked on us once. Place wasn’t even full.”
front room
“Fork had dried food on it and the table was sticky. Had to ask for a new set.”
booth 6
“You’re out of the short rib AND the special? That’s the whole reason we drove over.”
host stand
The window is minutes
The review is public, permanent, and the next diner reads it first.
A diner who had a rough meal rarely flags it. They thank the server, walk to the car, and write the one-star review before they pull out of the lot. You find out a week later, and so does everyone deciding where to eat tonight.
Give them a faster place to put it and you close that window. You catch the cold plate while they are still in the booth, fix it, and keep the table you were about to lose for good.
How it works
From the booth to fixed, before they pay.
- 01 7:48p
A diner taps the table tent
A small code on the table or printed on the receipt. No app, no login. They thumb out what went sideways before they have even paid, and leave a number if they want to hear back.
- 02 7:49p
You see it at the host stand
Every report from every table and every location lands in one place, already sorted. Six people flagging the wobbly patio tables read as one job, not six.
- 03 8:30p
You text them back once it is handled
Shim the table, fire a fresh plate, restock the towels, then mark it done. Everyone who flagged it gets one text. The diner who had a finger over the star rating hears from you instead.
Run more than one room
Spot the one store dragging the whole rating.
Every location reports into one inbox, tagged by store. When the Downtown patio racks up wobbly-table flags three nights running, you see it before the average dips. Group rating problems start at one address, and this is how you find it.
