### Most mentioned pros

- The real‑time booking system, guest management features, and broad customer reach made it an effective tool for maintaining visibility and streamlining front‑of‑house operations.

Overall, my experience with OpenTable was positive and reliable. It’s a well‑established platform that excels at reservation management, offering a smooth and familiar experience for both diners and restaurants. The real‑time booking system, guest management features, and broad customer reach made it an effective tool for maintaining visibility and streamlining front‑of‑house operations. That said, the cost structure and limited flexibility stood out as challenges, especially for busy restaurants or those wanting more control over branding and direct customer relationships. Despite this, OpenTable remains a dependable, industry‑standard solution that delivers consistent results, particularly for establishments prioritizing exposure and ease of use.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

What I liked most about OpenTable was its ease of use and wide reach. The platform makes managing reservations straightforward for both guests and staff, and its large, established user base helps drive consistent visibility and bookings. I also appreciated the real‑time reservation management, guest preferences tracking, and reliable integrations, which made front‑of‑house operations more efficient and improved the overall dining experience.

#### Cons

What I liked least about OpenTable was the cost structure, particularly for reservation and cover‑based fees, which can add up quickly for busy restaurants. Additionally, there was limited flexibility around customization and branding, and restaurants often felt dependent on the platform’s ecosystem, with less control over direct customer relationships compared to other tools. While the system is reliable, some features and changes also felt restrictive unless you upgraded to higher‑tier plans.

From a restaurant point of view, you would need a platform that automate most of the action without checking every single minute. It is very useful to boost last minute reservations, however not ideal as a main booking platform.

OpenTable is a good platform for bookings management. It has a great look from guests point of view. Customer support is always very fast and responsive.

### Love Open Table!

OpenTable is wonderful, not only do they have fast and professional customer service, they're also improving the software everyday. I love that we can train our hosts quickly and use the software to make it an enjoyable dining experience for our guests.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

From a sales perspective, Open Table is fantastic at making sure we have plotted the proper rooms for private events. It is constantly making suggestions and making sure we're in the right time slots for turning tables. For our FOH manangers, it is very easy to train on which makes it less time consuming in the host training process. Guest center is also a great hub to check reviews, see your seating from an app on your phone and make any changes on the go. Love the pop up function and notes section to make sure our hosts have all the information they need. OTrestaurant.com is also wonderful to make sure we have all the right marketing tools turned on and become available to our guests. It is important that our guests have an ease of use to make a reservation and with the bonus points they receive from booking on open table it is just a plus for us to use the software.

#### Cons

Not a con, but we would love to see Open Table integrate with private dining software to make plotting private events faster.

#### Reasons for choosing OpenTable

Point system that our guests like for loyalty, ease of use, customer service, guest center function.

#### Vendor response

Hi Kathryn, thanks so much for taking the time to write a review!

The POS integration and that it is widely used by patrons as a go to reservation source.

Would like more customizable reporting features on the back end and shortcut features on the floorplan view for hosts. We used Yelp prior to switching to OpenTable and their user interface for hosts had more shortcut features that our hosts do miss.

#### Reasons for switching to OpenTable

Integration with Toast and given a flat rate fee.

Easy to use and to customize. I like the mobile app on the client side. Cover flow helps with booking management. Guest data is not as robust as other platforms. Its worth using in conjunction with platform of choice so as to capture all guests

I have been using OpenTable for over six years (since 2018). I have accumulated wealth of points, rewards, and enjoy OpenTable VIP status and absolutely love my experince with this app. I only wish that more restaurants would adopt the app for their reservation system because it is so easy to use. Everytime I use to app, I always have my table waiting when I arrive at the restaurant. Beautiful!

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

I love that OpenTable is so intuitive and easy to use to book reservations. I have been using OpenTable since 2018 and have accummulated OpenTable VIP status with over 150+ booked and completed reservations. They have an awesome rewards system where you can redeem OpenTable points for cool things like Amazon gift cards.

#### Cons

I have one "if only" for OpenTable. If only. . .you could change the day of a reservation that is already booked, it would be GREAT! Currently, you can only change the time of the reservation. You cannot add people and you cannot change the day to an already booked reservation. You have to go in and cancel to start over.

My experience as a hostess in a high end jazz club has been great. Once you get the drift of using Open Table, it's easy to use and implement, easy to change tables around and has been an excellent source of information because it stores history on any client that is entered into the system.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The features most liked are the customer history, ability to bypass the standard programming for a table and put in special requests. I also like the ease of which you can change a floor plan and number the tables to accommodate various special occasion situations. And I like the ability to no-show a client and they receive that response. Also like the ability to enter in special codes like anniversary, birthday, special event, gluten free, etc. This all helps us to give the client a superior experience.

#### Cons

The system is only as good as what is programmed into it. You have to learn the tricks and tips to move around the Open Table system in order to get past what it tells you upfront.

### Open Table is critical for managing reservations

This is the best table reservation system I have trialed. It replaced the old school method where guests had to call and try to talk to someone about availability and it is so much more effective. I don't know how we operated without it for so many years.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

It is the go-to for table reservations for restaurants. It is easy to use and the restaurant staff has easy visibility to the planned seating for the night. It really helps customers have a great dinner service because there is one less thing they have to worry about.

#### Cons

The reservation process for the customer can be a little frustrating. The software will only show a 1 -2 hour window on either side of your "target" reservation time. So you have to do the "trial & error" method to find a date / time that works.

#### Reasons for switching to OpenTable

The self-managed process was ineffective and we often missed reservations. We no longer have that issue!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

I use OpenTable at least once a week to book reservations for either myself & my boyfriend or a group of friends and I absolutely love it. The best parts of the application are that you can customize what you're looking for (this is specifically helpful for dates/times and different types of food), keep track of your reservations and save favorites. I also love that you can share the reservation with other attendees and that it populates directly to your Google calendar so you never forget what you've booked!

#### Cons

The only thing that I dislike about OpenTable is that it does not include all restaurants in the area. I know that this is not the fault of OpenTable itself and that these restaurants have not signed up to use the application - but it just makes the whole process of finding a reservation more limited/difficult, especially when in a new area.

I find that OpenTable is a very good option for reservations and that my notes for special instructions are always followed. I also love the reward system. It is fun to build up points and receive Amazon gift cards after so many points are earned. It is also cool that they have the menus available to peruse before you arrive as well as special "experience" options that you can choose at some of the restaurants.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

It is user-friendly, the calendar option is great, and the ability to invite guests is fantastic. I use OpenTable almost every day. I travel for work and use OpenTable to book all of my lunch and dinner meetings for my clients when possible. I love the rewards program, receiving Amazon gift cards every so often is always fun. I also really enjoy learning about new restaurants in the area I live in and in the towns, I am visiting for work or on vacation. The "experience" option is also fun and tells you a little bit more about each restaurant as you make your reservation.

#### Cons

The only two complaints that I have is that some restaurants pull open seating on certain days and that all restaurants so not participate in Open table.

### Makes your restaurant booking easy and secure!

Overall, it is a great system that is easy to navigate. I like how there is incentives attached to it in order to keep restaurants and their guests to use it. Also, I usually never have a problem with my bookings over OpenTable - when I arrive at a restaurant, my booking is always accurate.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The layout of the site is easy to navigate and use when it comes to booking a reservation, especially at restaurants that are popular and hard to get a table at if you simply walked it. You can book for dates in advance, easily book a table for the amount of guests that are needed and you can sometimes book a table in a certain area of the restaurant (depending if the specific restaurant allows for it on OpenTable). You can also gain points if you use the site frequently that can be converted into giftcards!

#### Cons

I'm still wary of the keeping of credit card information on the site, but it is understandable to keep incase of a no-show/late cancellation fee.

The main problem solved is time. No one wants to use a phone to make a call more than they have to, and they certainly don't like to have to wait. OpenTable helps with making reservations quickly and effortlessly.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

OpenTable is very easy to use. While I'm a little computer savvy, I've no patience for sites that are glitchy or too complicated. I'm able to make my reservations easily, choosing the time and the number of people and can also, when necessary, make special requests. I make a lot of the reservations for family, friends and colleagues and because I know I can count on OpenTable, they know they can count on me. And best of all, it's quick; no more waiting on hold, no conversation over the loud noises of the restaurant. I also love the text / email reminders. This is a big help with a busy schedule; it's one less thing to keep track of.

#### Cons

I honestly can't think of anything that can be improved. Everything has worked smoothly thus far.
