Kitchen display system for a sushi restaurant

Merchant Fund Express configures this Clover capability with your devices, menu and team, so it is working from the first shift.

A kitchen display gives a sushi restaurant a live board in place of paper tickets, with colors for age and a bump when something is done.

For a sushi restaurant, the detail that matters is this: sushi service is precise: a sushi bar with chef-prepared courses, a kitchen line with hot items, and a takeout stream that never stops on weekends.

How it flows in a sushi restaurant

Open

the sushi counter and the kitchen are separate stations with separate tickets.

Lunch

set menus and bento boxes are rung as items with choices.

Dinner

omakase seatings are charged per person with beverage add-ons.

Close

fish used is compared to rolls sold.

Why it is worth setting up properly

A display is quiet. In a busy sushi restaurant, the board keeps the sequence without a runner and without the printer jamming at the worst time.

Paper tickets get wet, smudged, lost and read out of order. A board shows every open ticket in sequence, flags the ones running late and lets the line see the whole picture without a shout across the kitchen.

Keep one printer as a fallback until the team trusts the board.
Keep modifiers short so they fit on the card.
Route items by station so each cook sees only their own work.
Name stations the way your cooks do.

What sushi restaurants should know before setup

Sending every item to one printer forces runners to sort tickets by hand during a rush.

Our team ships hardware configured, then comes on site to place it, connect it, build your items and train your staff. We stay on the line through your first service.

The pitfall to avoid

Hanging a screen where cooks cannot read it from their station. Plan the sightline before you mount.

It matters more in a sushi restaurant because sushi service is precise: a sushi bar with chef-prepared courses, a kitchen line with hot items, and a takeout stream that never stops on weekends.

Worth knowing

Sushi service is split between a counter and a kitchen, so ticket routing is the heart of the setup: cold items to the sushi bar, hot items to the line, drinks to the bar, all on one guest check. Omakase seatings priced per person with a separate beverage list make reservations and prepayments straightforward.

Common questions

Can I keep a printer as backup?

Yes. Many kitchens keep one for runner tickets or as a fallback.

Can different stations see different items?

Yes. Item-level routing sends each item to its station.

How do I split cold and hot tickets?

Item routing lets you send raw items to the sushi bar and cooked items to the kitchen.

What will this cost me?

There is no price list on purpose. Your quote is built from your monthly card sales, your average ticket and the devices you need, so call (305) 384-8391 and we will price your actual setup.

Can I get a free review of my current processing?

Yes. Send or read us a recent statement and we will walk through what you pay today, with no obligation.

Can I route sushi to a different station?

Yes. Item-level routing sends cold items to the sushi counter and hot items to the kitchen.

Can I take a deposit for omakase?

Deposits are recorded as partial payments applied at the final check.
