The Challenge

Where they were stuck.

Ember & Oak had great food and loyal regulars — but no digital infrastructure to grow beyond word of mouth. Weeknight covers were down 40%, their Google reviews hadn't been touched in 8 months, and they were paying $4,200/month on social ads with zero attribution.

  • No system to capture and re-engage website visitors

  • Zero follow-up on OpenTable no-shows or incomplete reservations

  • Social content posted sporadically with no brand consistency

  • Phone calls going to voicemail during peak hours, losing bookings

The Solution

What we built.

We deployed the full Omniscient stack — AI voice to handle reservations 24/7, a conversion-optimized website with integrated booking, a paid ad engine tied directly to table availability, and a weekly content cadence that built the brand across Instagram and Google.

  • AI voice agent handles all incoming reservation calls around the clock

  • Email + SMS re-engagement flows for past guests and no-shows

  • Google + Meta ads optimized against actual reservation conversions

  • Weekly content production: reels, stories, Google posts, review responses

I thought our food would sell itself. Omniscient showed me that great food plus a real system is what actually fills seats — and keeps them full.
