About
One person, in Winnipeg, building this properly
If you got an email from me and came here to check whether TableNote is a real thing — fair enough. Here is the honest version.
Who I am
My name is Pengda Chen. I build and run TableNote on my own, as a sole proprietor registered in Manitoba. There is no sales team, no offshore call centre and no investor behind this. When you reply to an email from TableNote, I am the one who reads it.
What TableNote actually does
It is one line of code you paste into your existing website. After that, a chat box on your own site answers diners’ questions from your real menu, hours and policies — and takes their reservation in the same conversation, at eleven at night, without anyone picking up the phone.
It runs on a flat monthly price with no per-cover fee. It does not put your restaurant on somebody else’s marketplace, and it does not charge you for diners who were already yours.
Why you might have heard from me
I build a working preview of a restaurant’s own site — their real menu, their real hours, a booking button that actually books — and then send the owner the link. That is the whole pitch. You look at it for thirty seconds and decide.
I only email addresses a restaurant has published publicly on its own website, and every email has a one-click unsubscribe that works. If you would rather I didn’t, say so once and I won’t.
What I am not going to pretend
TableNote is new. It is not used by hundreds of restaurants, and I am not going to put a fake customer count on a page to make you feel better about it. What I can offer is that I will set it up for you myself, in person if you are in Winnipeg, and that you can cancel any month you like.
