Rhode Island Restaurant Using Robot Wait Staff Assistant

June 9, 2021

You may have seen a robot server in a television show or movie over the years, but it’s now a reality at one Rhode Island restaurant.

Angelo’s Palace Pizza in Cumberland has been using a robot wait staff assistant called Servi to deliver food and drinks to some tables, as UPI reports.

“When we’re really busy, our expediter is always yelling out, ‘runners, runners,’ looking for people to run food and our servers are busy,” restaurant co-owner Bill Kitsilis told WJAR-TV.

The robot knows the layout of the restaurant. For the robot to go to the correct table, the operator enters the table number and the robot will travel there.
