Spokk for restaurants

Had dinner for two at Olive and Ember. The wood-fired lamb was incredible, our server knew the wine list inside out, and the service was great all night.

How it works

What happens after every meal

Restaurants serve hundreds of guests a week and hear from a handful. Spokk asks every guest you have a number for, and anyone can answer from the QR code on the table.

  1. Step 1

    After the meal

    The meal goes into Spokk

    Guests on your reservation list or loyalty program are sent a text, and walk-ins scan the QR code on the table or the receipt.

  2. Step 2

    2 hours later

    Spokk asks how it went

    A text or email with a short form. If they don't answer, one reminder follows the next day.

  3. Step 3

    Right after they answer

    They are invited to review you

    Every guest gets the same Google review invitation, with a draft written from their own feedback.

  4. Step 4

    In the weeks after

    Guests come back

    Visit rewards bring guests back, and referral codes bring their friends.

When to ask a restaurant guest

A text a couple of hours after the meal catches guests while it is still fresh. Late dinner service? Texts never go out after 9pm unless you change the hours, so a 10pm table hears from you at 8am the next day. The QR code works at any time: guests can answer before they have even left the table.

The texts

Short, friendly texts your guests will actually open

One short text with your restaurant's name and a link to a form that takes under a minute. Edit it to sound like your front of house.

  • Every text carries your business name, so nobody wonders who it is from.
  • Sent between 8am and 9pm in your time zone, unless you choose other hours.
  • Opt-outs are handled for you: anyone who replies STOP is never texted again.
  • Guests with no mobile number get the same messages by email.

Feedback

Hear from the guests who never say anything

Many unhappy guests just leave without a word. A short form by text or QR code gives every guest an easy way to tell you, in a few taps.

Questions you could ask

  • How was your meal overall?
  • How was the food?
  • How was your server?
  • Did your food arrive in good time?
  • Would you come back?

Star ratings, a comment box and up to ten questions of your own. You choose what appears.

Send feedback

Every answer reaches you straight away

Your manager gets an email for every answer, so a slow kitchen or a cold dish is known before the next service. Reply from Spokk with an apology or an invitation back. That guest still gets the same review invitation as everyone else.

Food was great but we waited 35 minutes for mains and nobody came to explain.

Google reviews

Reviews that keep your rating fresh

Spokk invites every guest after their feedback with a draft built from what they wrote, so new reviews describe real dishes and real service, week after week.

  • Every guest gets the same invitation, whatever they rated. Asking only happy guests is review gating, which Google does not allow.
  • The draft only uses what they told you, and they can change any of it.
  • They post it themselves, from their own Google account. Spokk never posts reviews for anyone.
  • Once you confirm a guest has left a Google review, Spokk stops asking them.

Thanks for your feedback

Gorgeous food and a lovely room. Mains took a while on a busy Saturday.

Thank you, Nina, and thanks for your patience on a full Saturday. We are glad you enjoyed the food and hope to see you again soon.

Post replyEdit

Reply to every review in a minute

Connect your Google Business Profile and every review appears in Spokk, old and new. Spokk suggests a reply that fits what the reviewer said, you edit it if you like, and post it without opening Google.

A Harvard Business School study found that a one-star increase on Yelp led to a 5 to 9% increase in revenue for independent restaurants. Ratings are worth looking after, reply by reply.

Setup

Getting meals into Spokk

Many restaurants use both: texts for guests you have a number for, and QR codes for everyone else.

QR code on the table

Print a QR code for table tents, menus or receipts. Guests scan it and answer in under a minute, no app needed.

Host stand or staff portal

Add the guest from the reservation book or the host stand, and they get a text after their meal.

Your reservation or POS system

If it can reach HubSpot, GoHighLevel, Zoho or our API, guests flow into Spokk on their own. If not, tell us what you use.

Good to know for restaurants

Discounts for feedback, never for reviews

Offering a discount for filling in your feedback form is fine. Offering anything for a Google review is against Google's rules, so keep rewards away from the review itself.

Busy nights, fewer interruptions

Nothing here asks your servers to do anything at the table. The QR code sits there, and texts go out after the guest has left.

FAQ

Questions restaurants ask

How do restaurants get more Google reviews?

Ask every guest, every time, and make it take seconds. Spokk texts guests after their meal and puts a QR code on the table, then invites every guest who answers to review you on Google with a draft written from their own feedback.

How many Google reviews does a restaurant need?

There is no fixed number, but in Local Falcon's study of Q4 2025 results, restaurants in Google's local top three had a median of 451 reviews. Recency matters too: 74% of consumers only pay attention to reviews from the last three months (BrightLocal, 2026).

Can guests leave feedback without giving their number?

Yes. Anyone can scan the QR code on the table and answer, and they still see the same Google review invitation afterwards.

Can I offer a free dessert for a review?

No. Google does not allow incentives for reviews. A thank-you for completing your private feedback form is fine, as long as it is not tied to a review.

Does it work for more than one location?

Yes. Each location gets its own forms and QR codes, and you see feedback for every location in one account. Locations are never priced separately.

How much does Spokk cost for a restaurant?

From $149 a month, billed monthly with no contract. Your price depends on the features you choose and how many guests you serve each month. Try it free for 14 days, no card needed.
