HellaGood Waitlist
A restaurant waitlist system that lets guests join by phone, printed sign, or door tablet while staff manage the room from one screen.
Field notes
Guests can enter through a phone, paper sign, or tablet, while the host works from a single list showing status, seating area, quoted wait, notifications, and join method. HellaGood says those running timestamps also produce operational measures such as average and 90th-percentile waits, quote misses, no-shows, and time to seat. Staff access uses a permanent QR code plus phone number and PIN, with five failed attempts triggering a fifteen-minute lockout.
