Tabling

Tabling (Korean: 테이블링) is a South Korean restaurant service that combines an on-site waitlist, reservation board, vacant-table claiming and QR/NFC table ordering for restaurants, with a consumer app where diners find and queue for those venues. Its business site is written in Korean, and restaurants apply through an enquiry form. The vendor says about 4,000 partner venues use it.

Who it is for

  • Restaurants in South Korea with queues

    The vendor says nearly 4,000 venues across Korea use Tabling, and the waitlist product is aimed at cutting queue-handling staff effort.

  • Venues that want exposure on Naver

    Partner venues can be shown on both Tabling and Naver, and Naver reservations appear on the Tabling reservation board.

  • Restaurants adding table ordering without new POS

    Table ordering works by QR or NFC and the vendor says the existing POS can stay in use.

What it does

  • Waitlist management

    Shows the full waiting list on one screen; the vendor says it reduces staff workload and helps repeat visits.

  • Remote queueing via Naver

    The vendor announces an official link with Naver's remote queueing, shown in the Naver app and Naver Map app.

  • Venue listing in the Tabling app

    Partner venues appear inside the consumer Tabling app, which the vendor presents as a promotion channel.

  • Reservation board

    A reservation management board that also shows reservations received through Naver.

  • Phone-reservation customer recognition

    Recognises the caller's phone number so staff can see reservation status, visit history and customer details before answering.

  • Drag-and-drop table management

    Staff change, move and seat tables by dragging on screen; the vendor calls this a first in Korea.

  • Vacant-table claiming (빈자리선점)

    Lets diners see real-time empty tables at nearby venues and claim one, including from Naver, so venues can fill open seats.

  • QR/NFC table ordering

    Diners order by scanning a QR code or tapping NFC rather than using a tablet, then pay through the venue's POS.

  • Custom-branded order cards

    Colours, fonts and other design elements of the ordering screen can be customised per venue or brand.

  • Payment options for table ordering

    Venues choose between mobile prepayment and pay-later at the venue.

  • Automatic translation of the order screen

    Order screens translate automatically into English, Chinese and Japanese for foreign guests.
