In general, restaurant service processes such as making reservations and ordering require waiters to record customer orders manually by using paper and pen and then transmit the order to the kitchen for preparation.

By looking at these practices, using advance IT to improve service quality has received much attention in recent years. Therefore, the owner of the restaurants began to realize that in attempt to be competitive and improve customer satisfaction, the successful implementation of IT has undoubtedly emerged as a method maintaining the organizational performance and profitability.
