The ordering system for Greek restaurants
Greek hospitality stands for generosity, big tables and sharing. A typical group night brings 8–12 people, several rounds of mezze, ouzo for the whole table, and a bill that wants splitting at the end. GastroSystem maps that: family meal deals, ordering more by QR at the table, and a bill that can be split by item.
What Greek restaurant owners know well
- Large tables, chaotic orders
A group of 10 orders 6 different starters, 3 mains from the grill and ouzo for the table. Without digital table ordering, items get lost or doubled up.
- Drinks upsell not consistently captured
Greek wine, ouzo and beer are high-margin items. When wait staff don't actively recommend during rush hour, guests order only the minimum drink — and the ticket stays €4–€6 below its potential.
- No-shows on group reservations
A 12-person table reservation that doesn't show costs €200–€400 in lost revenue. Without a deposit or credit card guarantee, the risk is real.
- Split bills slow down table turnover
A group of 8 wanting separate bills can tie up a member of staff for 10–15 minutes. That time is missing from other tables.
How GastroSystem helps Greek restaurants
Family menu and mezze sets
Create sharing menus for 2, 4 or 6 people: mezze selection, mixed grill platter, family set menu. The guest configures the set in the ordering app — quantity and variants are calculated automatically. The kitchen receipt shows exactly what goes to which table.
Ouzo and wine upsell at the right moment
After selecting starters, the system automatically suggests suitable drinks: house wine, ouzo for the table, retsina. You define the pairing logic once. The effect: the average drinks order per table rises by €3–€8.
Group reservations with deposit
Guests with groups of 6+ can reserve online and pay a deposit per person directly. If they cancel with less than 24 hours' notice, the deposit is retained. No-show rate drops by typically 80%.
Split billing at the POS
One click at the POS splits the bill equally or by individual items. Each guest pays their share by card, Apple Pay or cash — all in one transaction batch. The daily close shows the total automatically.
More per table with every reservation
A Greek restaurant with an average group size of 6 and a ticket of €28/person achieves €168 per table. With automatic wine upsell (+€6/person) and a deposit system that eliminates no-shows, that rises to €204 per table — a 21% increase without changing anything else.

Common questions for Greek restaurants
Can I require a deposit or a minimum spend for group reservations?
No. Reserving is free for your guests. You set the biggest group size allowed online, and confirm every request yourself.
How do I show Easter specials only at Easter?
Create a category with a start and end date. It shows and hides itself automatically, you don't have to switch anything manually. The same goes for summer grill menus or Christmas menus.
Can guests split the bill at the table?
Yes. With QR code table orders, every guest pays their share right on their phone. The system totals the full amount and shows every line item. No more manually splitting the bill at the table.
