Online reviews help attract new customers, but can also influence the retention of customers who have visited you before. Indeed, some customers consult the opinions on a restaurant that they have already tried , especially if a significant amount of time has passed since their last visit, because they want to know if the experience is still successful or if the restaurant offers novelties. When you respond to comments, take the opportunity to promote what’s new in your establishment to attract these repeat customers.

Comments: an opportunity to get to know your establishment better

Another advantage of online reviews is that they help restaurants determine what is working well and what is not , and therefore improve or change those aspects.

And of course, do not forget to take care of the quality of the gastronomic experience that you offer, because it is this that will push your customers to take the time to publish a positive opinion which, subsequently, will turn into new ones. profits.
