They're not our conspirtors at this time. At these restaurants, the robots are here to serve you.
Once someone says "robot restaurant, " I first think of an LED and laser show at a Tokyo venue where remote-controlled robots dance with bikini-clad girls in a sensory show that accompanies dinner.

But the reality of robot restaurants is generally way more pedestrian and low-key.

One of these is Eatsa, the San Francisco-based restaurant company that takes orders through iPads and dispenses meals through automated machines. Until now, Eatsa has been using this tech to serve up quinoa bowls to health-food fans in its own restaurants. But the company announced Friday that it can expanding its robotic platform to the fast-casual restaurant chain Wow Bao next month.

Tap on your cubby to receive your food

At Chicago-based Wow Bao, you can already order your steamed buns via its iphone app or an on-site kiosk. But with Eatsa's tech, you'll also be able to acquire your meal from an LED-lit cubbyhole exhibiting your name. Text showing up on the front of the cubby, one amid a larger array, will tell you when your order is cooking so when you can double-tap on the box to gather your food.

It's part of the gradual creep of technology that's transforming our experience of dining out, and even dining in, thanks to advances in delivery technical.

It currently has several company-owned locations, plus airport terminal, college or university campus, hotel and stadium franchises.

"When We first heard about Eatsa opening in San Francisco, I jumped on a plane to come see it, " Wow Bao President Geoff Alexander said in a statement. Alexander praised the technology as both entertaining and successful. "I knew instantly that Eatsa would be the perfect technology to incorporate into our future locations. "

Do robots are supposed to be in the kitchen?
In Eatsa and soon at Wow Bao, the automatic technology is front and center in the restaurant, serving customers and providing these an experience to go along with their takeout. In other restaurants, robots continue to be strictly consigned to your kitchen.

At Coffee shop X and Zume, both based in Bay area, programs make lattes and pizza, respectively. California startup Miso Robotics has built a kitchen assistant robot called Flippy, which from early on 2018 is expected to be grilling burgers in CaliBurger restaurants.
