Staff training for restaurants

Train your floor on the menu you actually serve.

Menurizer turns your wine list, bar book and food menu into a living catalog and a staff training program, with certifications your managers sign off on the floor.

A wine's page in Menurizer: the bottle, producer, region, price and tasting notes for Antinori Tignanello 2018

Your menu becomes the curriculum

No generic hospitality courses. Every lesson, flashcard and quiz is built from the items your staff will be asked about tonight.

The wine catalog: cards with the bottle, producer, region, vintage and glass and bottle prices

Upload your menus

Wine lists, cocktail specs and dishes become a structured catalog: producers, regions and varietals; components and techniques; allergens, modifications and pairings.

A lesson on pricing with a quick-check question

Staff learn from it

Lessons, spaced-repetition flashcards and auto-graded quizzes tied to your items, on their phone, in the language they work in.

A manager's team dashboard: training completion per lesson and a knowledge-gap heatmap of mastery by role and category

Managers see readiness

The team dashboard shows what each role still gets wrong before service, who is overdue, and who has gone quiet. Practical skills are verified in person and recorded.

Bar and Wine certification programs

Platform-authored, three levels each. Knowledge is quizzed; skills are demonstrated to a manager and signed off. Veterans can test out of what they already know.

Built for restaurant groups

One account for the whole company, with each location keeping its own menu, roster and training progress.

The owner's overview: mastery, active learners, training hours and completion for each location

Multi-location

Per-location menus and rosters, and one overview of mastery, activity, hours and completion across every location.

The certification roster: who is certified at each level, who is in progress, and which certificates are expiring

Certified, in progress, expiring

Managers see who holds which level on which track, who is partway there, and which certificates need renewing before they lapse.

Ready for service

Allergen audits, 86 lists and off-menu flags keep the catalog honest as menus change.

See it run a whole restaurant group

The demo runs on Lantern Hospitality Group, a fictional multi-location operator with full wine, bar and food catalogs and staff at every level of the programs. Demos are guided and scheduled: email kyle@linwoodtechnologies.com to book one.
