After-hours voicemail for Restaurants
When restaurants are closed, a call about a guest calling about a reservation or an order goes to voicemail. The AI receptionist does not answer outside the hours on the location.
What happens when you are closed
Restaurants set open hours on the location. A call about a guest calling about a reservation or an order that arrives outside those hours goes to voicemail. The receptionist stays off until the location is open again.
What the caller hears
The caller reaches the location voicemail, not a live agent and not the assistant. Leave the greeting honest about when restaurants will listen to it.
What the team does next
Someone on the account plays the voicemail during open hours. If the caller already opted into texts, restaurants can follow up with the SMS API on the same account. TxtNexus does not send that text by itself.
FAQ
Does the assistant answer after hours?
No. Closed hours on a location go to voicemail. The receptionist does not pick up while the location is closed.
Can restaurants still reach a person at night?
A forward can send the call to a mobile or another number. That is separate from the receptionist, which stays off when the location is closed.
