Restaurant.
Full-service restaurant POS — coursing, splits, tableside ordering, and tips that add up right.
Built For You, Configured By Us.
Your servers shouldn't fight the system on a Friday night. We deploy restaurant POS with your menu, modifiers, and floor plan built before it arrives.
Kitchen displays, online ordering, and same day funding included.
- ★Tableside & counter orderingHandheld and counter POS fire orders straight to the kitchen, split checks six ways without turning your server into an accountant, and speed up every turn.
- ★Kitchen display integrationOrders route to a kitchen display system the moment they're rung, cutting ticket errors and keeping throughput up when you're short-staffed on a Friday night.
- ★Tip management & payroll exportsTips, tip pooling, and hours flow cleanly into payroll — accurate, compliant, and far less end-of-shift math for your managers.
- ★Online ordering & QR payNative online ordering and scan-to-pay QR codes feed the same system as your dining room, so digital and in-house sales settle together with one report.
What It’s Really Like To Run A Restaurant.
Friday at 7:40 the board is full, the expo window is stacked, and your host is quoting forty-five minutes to walk-ins. You are running food, watching table 12’s entrees land before their salads are cleared, and coaching a server who started Tuesday. Margins live and die in these two hours — every comped app, every re-fire, every table that sits ten minutes waiting on a check is money you already spent walking out the door.
Payments are where that Friday quietly leaks. A 12-top wants to split six ways, two cards and some cash, and your server becomes an accountant while table 9 waits to order. Tips get adjusted after close and never quite match the batch. The check drop itself — drop, wait, run the card, return, sign — adds eight minutes to every turn. And Monday, when you look at the statement, the effective rate is a number nobody quoted you.
Typical result: faster table turns and processing costs most owners can finally read on one page — measured on your own statement, not a brochure.
Where Payments Hurt
- ★A 12-top splitting six ways turns your server into an accountant while table 9 waits to order.
- ★Drop-the-check-and-wait adds minutes to every turn during the exact window you need tables back.
- ★Tip adjustments after close never reconcile cleanly with the batch, so payroll becomes detective work.
- ★Weekend sales land in the bank Tuesday, but produce and payroll do not wait for the processor.
How Lone Star Fixes It
- ★Shift4Dine handles coursing, seat-level splits, and pay-at-table so checks close at the table, not the terminal.
- ★Tips flow into one report that matches the batch — adjust, close, done, no spreadsheet forensics.
- ★Same day funding puts Friday and Saturday in the bank before Monday payroll.
- ★Dual pricing plus our up to $5,000 POS upgrade program means new hardware without a new line of debt.
Restaurant Owners Ask Us
What is the best POS system for a restaurant in Texas?
It depends on your service style — full service usually points to Shift4Dine, counter service to Clover or LINGA. Our Dallas team installs and supports all of them locally, and our guide to choosing a restaurant POS walks through the decision.
Can I legally pass credit card fees to customers in Texas?
Yes, through a properly configured dual pricing program that shows a cash price and a card price. Texas has specific rules on surcharging, so the setup matters — see our breakdown of Texas surcharge laws and dual pricing.
How fast can I get my restaurant’s weekend sales?
With same day funding, batches settled by the cutoff can hit your account the same business day, weekends included on qualifying accounts. That means Saturday night’s sales are available before Monday’s vendor deliveries.
