The table that raved about your food, remembered.
Diners tell the people they were with, then forget. A short window after the meal, while it is still memorable, is when a review is easiest to write. SaysWell asks each guest on your list and drafts a reply to every review.

When to ask, and how.
Reviews are easiest to write while the visit is still fresh. Here is how that works for restaurants, cafés and bars.
Soon after the meal
Set a short delay so the request lands while the evening is still fresh. You pick the number of days, from the same day onward.
From the guest list you already have
Reservations, loyalty sign-ups and online orders already have emails. Upload them as a CSV, or let Square keep the list current.
Not the same guest twice in a row
SaysWell won't ask the same person again within 90 days, so regulars don't get a request every visit.
The request, and the reply.
Sample wording for restaurants, cafés and bars. Your own emails use your business name and the tone you choose.
Hi Daniel, thanks for dining with us on Friday! If you enjoyed your evening, would you mind leaving a quick Google review? It helps other people find us.
Leave a review“Great food and friendly staff. The wait for a table was a bit long on a Friday, but worth it.”
Hi Daniel, thank you for coming in and for the kind words about the food and the team. We're sorry about the wait on a busy Friday and we hope to see you again soon. — Harbor Street Kitchen

Questions from restaurants, cafés and bars
Can I send requests the same day?
You choose how many days after the visit a request goes out, starting from the same day. Many owners prefer one to three days.
What about guests who only dined once?
They get one request. SaysWell never sends the same person a second request within 90 days.
Does SaysWell post replies to Google for me?
Nothing is ever posted for you: you read each reply, change anything you like, and post it yourself.
