Dim sum and regional dishes, answered from your real menu
Chinese restaurant sites field a steady stream of questions: which dim sum is vegetarian, how spicy is the mapo tofu, is the soy sauce gluten-free, do you have a banquet set menu for ten, is the duck whole or half. Most sites bury that on a long PDF and leave staff to repeat it on the phone. SleekAI reads your live WordPress menu posts and answers using the real ingredient list, the actual heat level, and the real prices.
Dishes live as posts or custom fields. Regional style (Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese), spice level, vegetarian, vegan, MSG, and gluten-free tags read as named context. Dim sum, banquet sets, lunch combos, and weekend brunch hours pull through verbatim. Special menus for Lunar New Year, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Mooncake season read from a custom field, so seasonal specials propagate the moment they go live.
For restaurant groups, multibot scopes one chatbot per location, tied to that kitchen's regional focus and banquet rooms. Conversations log to WP admin with model and token usage, so the team sees which dishes get asked about most and which deserve a clearer description on the printed menu.

Features
What SleekAI gives you for Chinese Restaurants
Regional style aware
Quotes Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, or Shanghainese provenance from your dish notes, so guests get accurate provenance rather than generic Chinese-food trivia.
Allergen and MSG tags
Gluten in soy sauce, peanut in kung pao, shellfish in XO sauce, and MSG-free options read straight from each dish, so the bot never guesses on dietary questions.
Banquet and group bookings
Handles set menus, lazy-Susan group sizes, lunar-calendar specials, and banquet deposit rules from your real bookings page, then hands the guest to the reservation form.
Use cases
How Chinese restaurants use SleekAI
Dim sum filtering
Guests filter the cart by vegetarian, seafood-free, or gluten-free in one exchange, with the bot quoting which items are already compliant and which can be adapted.
Multilingual service
Mandarin and Cantonese guests get answers in their language using your real dish names; English-speaking tourists get translated descriptions while the printed menu stays consistent.
Banquet set menus
Groups ask about the 8-course or 10-course banquet, lazy-Susan capacity, and Peking duck advance-order rules, answered from your real banquet page, not from guessing.
The bigger picture
Why a Chinese restaurant chatbot has to know the regional kitchen
Chinese cuisine spans regional styles that generic chatbots cannot disambiguate. A guest asking whether the mapo tofu is Sichuan-spicy or sweet-and-mild needs the real answer from your kitchen, not a hedged regional summary. A vegetarian filtering the dim sum cart deserves the actual list of vegetable dumplings, mushroom cheung fun, and taro puffs you serve today, not a generic list of common items.
A group asking about banquet set menus, lazy-Susan capacity, and Peking duck advance-order rules needs your real banquet page, not a guess at industry norms. These are answers a chatbot can only give if it reads the real menu, the real banquet sets, and the real allergen and regional tags. The same applies to hours, where dim sum service windows on Saturday and Sunday vary by location and a guest who arrives at the wrong time is a guest who does not come back.
Chinese restaurants also serve culturally diverse audiences, so a chatbot that handles Mandarin and Cantonese in addition to English captures conversation volume the front desk could not realistically pick up. For restaurant groups, scoping per location is essential. A Sichuan special quoted at a Cantonese-focused sister location erodes trust immediately.
SleekAI reads live WordPress content per bot, so each location stays accurate and each conversation reflects what that kitchen is actually cooking. The result is more bookings captured at peak intent, especially for banquet groups, fewer phone calls about dim sum availability and spice levels, and a chat layer that sounds like your restaurant rather than a SaaS template. For Lunar New Year and Mid-Autumn Festival, where reservations spike, that conversational layer often handles the bulk of routine bookings while staff focus on the kitchen.
Questions
Common questions about SleekAI for Chinese Restaurants
Only as well as your menu describes them. If you tag dishes by region (Sichuan, Cantonese, Hunan, Shanghainese, Northern), the bot quotes that tag. If you note that the mapo tofu uses Pixian doubanjiang or that the Cantonese roast duck is hung-dried for 48 hours, the bot repeats it. It does not invent regional facts, so if a guest asks about provenance and you have not specified, it suggests they ask the team.
 Yes. SleekAI replies in whatever language the guest writes in. Mandarin and Cantonese guests get answers in simplified or traditional characters with your real dish names verbatim. The dish names stay in pinyin or characters, so the chat answer matches the printed menu when the guest arrives. Many Chinatown restaurants see meaningful chat volume in three languages within the first week.
 Dim sum carts vary by service and by season. If you keep a daily or weekly dim sum list as a custom field on the menu page, the bot reads it. For carts that rotate during a single service, we recommend listing the standard daily items plus a 'ask the cart' line so the bot can quote both. The bot will not invent items it has not seen on the page.
 Yes. If your banquet sets and group-booking rules are on the site, the bot reads them. It can quote the 8-course banquet menu, the per-person price, the lazy-Susan capacity, and the Peking duck or whole fish advance-order rule. It then routes the guest to your reservation form with party size, date, and any deposit note already in context.
 If you tag dishes as MSG-free or gluten-free, the bot quotes those tags. Soy sauce contains wheat in most cases, and if your kitchen uses gluten-free tamari for celiac guests, the bot relays that. For severe gluten allergies the system prompt routes the guest to confirm with staff before ordering, since cross-contamination is hard to fully eliminate in most kitchens.
 Yes. SleekAI supports multibot, so each location runs its own chatbot scoped to that kitchen's menu, banquet rooms, and hours. A regional Sichuan special that exists only at one location is never quoted at the others. Shared brand items like the loyalty program and cancellation policy can sit in a shared knowledge layer used by all bots.
 SleekAI is a one-time WordPress plugin license. You bring your own API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter), so usage cost is just model tokens, typically a few cents per conversation. For a busy dim sum hall doing 400 chats a day on GPT-4o-mini, the monthly run cost stays well below typical per-location chatbot SaaS pricing.
 SleekAI does not connect directly to POS or delivery systems. The bot deep-links to your ordering page on Toast, ChowNow, a custom WooCommerce checkout, or your delivery partner page. For reservations it links to OpenTable, Resy, SevenRooms, or your form. The chatbot answers questions and routes intent while the order and reservation systems stay where your team already manages them.
