Guests are greeted by the two 80cm robots (both named Casper) at the door. The guest’s table number appears on their screen and one of them will lead the diner to their seat.

Diners can place their orders via a display screen. Signature dishes include steaks and soft-shell crab pizza, and there are also special cocktails.
