QR menu for lounges and rooftops in Dakhla
In Dakhla, a lounge or rooftop sells a whole evening: the view, the music and service that never keeps guests waiting.
On its peninsula facing the lagoon, Dakhla lives off the wind, the sea and kitesurfing. Fishermen, travellers from around the world and business delegations share its tables.

The almost constant wind makes the lagoon a top kitesurf spot, and riders come from all over Europe. An English menu, with allergens and the Wi-Fi in one tap, is the baseline for these guests.
Dakhla's oysters and fish are well known, and they are often what visitors come to taste. With course pacing, starters, mains and desserts go to the kitchen at the right time without the waiter having to think about it.
Forums, trade shows and official missions regularly bring professional groups to town. They ask for invoices in their company's name: the ICE invoice is prepared at the table and sent on WhatsApp.
Sunsets over the lagoon are the high point of the day, and tourists happily leave a tip. Tip buttons with the waiter's name and the link to your Google page after paying turn that into an online review.
Service in a lounge or rooftop
Lounge service stretches over hours. A table starts with mocktails, adds a sharing board, then desserts, then another round. Each addition is a chance to forget when the waiter does not pass often enough, and a lost sale when the guest does not like to call him over.
The light is dim, the music loud, and paper menus are hard to read. A menu on the phone in a dark style reads easily and keeps the mood. High terraces are also large and spread over several levels: knowing which waiter serves which table saves trips.

Frequently asked questions
My foreign guests pay by card: does Tablilo take a commission?
No. Guests pay cash, on your own card terminal or through your own online payment account. The money goes straight to you, and Tablilo takes no commission.
Can the menu have a dark background?
Yes. The Soirée look shows the menu on a black background, in your colour if it is light enough. You can switch looks any time and the menu follows at once.
How do I know if a table left without paying?
A table closed without payment sends an alert to your phone, with the waiter's name. Every cancellation is also recorded with who, when and why.
