About

OpenTable is one of the world’s leading online restaurant reservation and dining discovery platforms, designed to simplify the way people find and book tables at restaurants around the globe. Launched in 1998 and based in San Francisco, it has grown into a network serving tens of thousands of restaurants — including casual eateries, fine-dining establishments, bars and wineries — across more than 80 countries, seating over a billion diners annually. The platform serves two key audiences: diners and restaurants. For diners, OpenTable provides a convenient, real-time way to search for dining options based on location, cuisine, price range and availability, and instantly reserve a table without calling the venue. Users can browse verified diner reviews, view menus and curated lists, and manage all reservations through the intuitive website or mobile app. These features help diners discover new places, plan meals for special occasions, and manage bookings with ease. For restaurants, OpenTable offers a comprehensive suite of hospitality solutions to help manage reservations and front-of-house operations more efficiently. Its tools include waitlist and host stand management, configurable floor plans, guest profiles and preferences, automated confirmations, analytics dashboards, and integration with other restaurant systems. This allows restaurants to reduce no-shows, optimize seating, capture valuable guest data, and improve overall customer service. OpenTable also supports unique initiatives like “Experiences” — bookable events such as chef’s tables or tasting menus — that help restaurants showcase special offerings and generate additional revenue. As part of Booking Holdings, Inc., it leverages a global network and partnerships with major travel and media brands to expand its reach and marketing opportunities. Overall, OpenTable bridges the gap between diners and restaurants, making dining out smoother and more enjoyable while helping restaurants grow and operate more effectively.
