AUGUSTA, GA (WFXG) -
Customers at various restaurants in
the CSRA will now receive text messages telling them when their tables are
ready.
Chilis is now using the NoWait app to seat
their customers.
"It's going to make things happen
a little more fluid, a little more seamless, declutter the hostess stand, no
more paper work. No more worries about somebody walking off the property with a
coaster and we can't reach them," said Daryl Miller.
Chilis has been using NoWait for two
weeks and not only are they pleased with the software; guests we spoke with are
on board too.
"The new program is great, I'm
ready for it that way we don't have to stand out here and wait anticipating the
line. We can go shopping, go to another store and just come back when we're
ready, just call us. I think it's more convenient that way, very convenient
yes," said Cynthia Charmayne.
NoWait normally operates in large
cities like New York and L.A., but they say they're drawn to Augusta because of
the hundreds of thousands of golf fans that will come to town during the Masters
week.
If 50 restaurants sign up, NoWait
officials say they will donate $50,000 to the Augusta Warrior Project. So far, 18
restaurants are using the program.
NoWait is providing their software, iPads,
iPhones and two weeks of training to the restaurants free of charge through the
end of April.
