Book a table at a restaurant

​

What you’ll need

• Rime Calls connected in Muse. If it isn’t, set it up first.
• The restaurant’s phone number.
• The times you’d accept, not just the one you want.
• A callback number. Most restaurants ask for one before they confirm.

​

Ask Muse

Call [restaurant] at [phone number] and book a table for [party size] on [day] at [time], under the name [your name]. [Time] or [backup time] is fine. My callback number is [your number].

Call Luigi’s Trattoria at (415) 555-0101 and book a table for 2 this Friday at 7pm for Sam Lee. 7 or 7:30 is fine. Callback (415) 555-0199.

Call Sakura House at (415) 555-0102 and book a table for 5 on Saturday between 6 and 7:30, for Sam Lee. One guest uses a wheelchair, so ask for an accessible table. Callback (415) 555-0199.

Call Luigi’s Trattoria at (415) 555-0101 and ask if they have anything for 2 tonight after 8. If they do, book it. If they offer the bar or a waitlist, check with me first.

​

How the call goes

1. Prism says it’s an AI assistant calling for you, and that the call is transcribed.
2. It asks for a table at your preferred time.
3. If that time is taken, it accepts another time only if you listed it. Otherwise it says it’ll check with you and passes the offer on.
4. It gives your name and callback number when the restaurant asks.
5. It says goodbye and hangs up, and Muse shows you the report.

What you get back

​

Tips

• Give a range, not one time. Prism can say yes only to times you allowed, so “7pm” alone means it declines 7:15.
• Large parties often need a card. Prism never gives payment details, so a booking that needs a deposit comes back to you as a next step.
• Want a waitlist spot? Say so in your request. Otherwise Prism declines it.
• Dietary needs or an occasion? Add them to your request. Prism mentions only what you’ve given it.

​

Next steps

• Move or cancel a reservation when plans change.
• Book a haircut the same way.
• Troubleshooting, if Muse can’t place the call.
