Time-aware availability
A future booking does not automatically make a table unavailable for every earlier hour.

Restaurant Reservations and Table Holds
Manage future bookings without blocking a table for the entire day.
Why it matters
Built around the way service actually works.
DREAMS treats a reservation as a time-bound table commitment. A table reserved for a later service should remain usable before the reservation window, while guests scanning the menu should never see private reservation details.
Protect guest privacy
Public guests see useful availability guidance, not another customer’s name or booking details.
Clear staff workflow
The team can review, confirm, seat and manage reservations from the operations area.
How it works
A simple flow from setup to service.
01
Receive a request
Capture the date, time, party size and guest details.
02
Confirm the booking
The restaurant confirms the reservation and its table/time commitment.
03
Serve the current room
Earlier service can use the table until the configured reservation window requires it.
Questions owners ask
Can a table be used before a later reservation?
Yes, when the current time is outside the configured hold window.
Will a menu guest see the reserved guest’s name?
No. Public availability messages are intentionally generic.
