Frequently Asked Questions
Why does table mix matter?
A mismatched table mix leads to wasted seats or turned-away guests, directly hurting revenue and turn times.
Should I round table counts?
This tool rounds to whole tables, but you should adjust based on your actual floor plan and fixed furniture.
Can I combine smaller tables for large parties?
Yes, many restaurants use combinable 2-tops as flexible 4-tops; factor that flexibility in separately.
