SignalRouteFor restaurants
Get reviews while the meal is still memorable
Diners decide whether to leave a review in the 10 minutes after they pay. SignalRoute puts a QR on the receipt and the table tent so they can leave a Google review in one tap — before they get in the car.

Why reviews matter
The review math for restaurants, cafes, and food service
First-time diners check Google before walking in
84% of consumers consult restaurant reviews before choosing where to eat. Star count and review velocity matter more than menu, atmosphere, or even price for first-time visitors.
Server turnover kills review-asking habits
Train a host to ask for reviews on Monday, they're gone by Friday. A QR code on the table is the host that doesn't quit.
Bad nights happen — but they shouldn't haunt you for a year
If a guest had a bad meal, you want to comp it before they're in the parking lot writing a review. The private feedback path gives them that channel.
Yelp and Google are different audiences
Yelp skews older / professional class. Google skews younger / mobile. SignalRoute lets the customer pick the platform they actually use.
Where to put your link
5 placements that actually work for restaurants
Specific to how restaurants, cafes, and food service interact with customers — not generic advice.
QR on every paper receipt
The customer's last interaction with you. Tap-to-tip ergonomics already work — same flow.
Table tent with a small QR
“Loved your meal? Tell Google” — works while they're waiting for the check.
Sticker on the to-go bag or pizza box
Repeat trigger every time they reorder.
Auto-included in OpenTable / Toast / Square confirmation emails
Most POS systems let you add a custom footer. Drop the link in.
Sandwich-board sign at the host stand
Diners scan while waiting for a table. Pre-meal positivity → post-meal review.
Why routing wins for this vertical
Built for the way restaurants, cafes, and food service actually work
Restaurants get reviewed whether they ask or not — Yelp and Google fill in with whoever bothers. Smart routing means the diners who actually loved the meal are the ones who leave reviews, and the rare disappointed diner reaches the manager directly instead of writing a public 2-star while still in the parking lot.

FAQ
Questions restaurants, cafes, and food service actually ask
Is asking for a review on the receipt against any health or POS rules?
No. A QR with “How was your meal?” is purely customer-facing and doesn't affect any health, POS, or payment-processor policy. It's the same idea as a tip-prompt screen.
We have multiple locations. Does each get its own page?
Yes. Add each location for $15/mo. Each gets its own URL, QR code, brand colors, and dashboard. The Newark location's reviews stay on Newark's Google profile.
Will Yelp penalize me for asking for reviews on Google?
No — you're routing to whatever platform the customer chooses. SignalRoute lets you list Google, Yelp, Facebook, TripAdvisor, OpenTable, or any URL you want. The customer picks where to post.
What about diners who didn't enjoy their meal — won't this surface complaints?
That's the point. If a diner's meal was bad, they're going to tell someone — better the manager privately than a public 1-star review. The private feedback channel gives you the chance to comp the meal, send a gift card, or fix the issue before it lands publicly.
