I can't trust OpenTable to make a reservation?

Question

I always end up calling and speaking to someone!

Should I just start?

I mean I just could imagine arriving with my guests and having no reservation if I do it online.

Answer 1

This site is no different that booking a hotel or airline reservation online-it is a direct connection to the system inside the restaurant.  If you still have a concern, bringing a copy of your email confirmation is a good idea, but feel comfortable knowing this technology works!

Answer 2

well if you have reasons to doubt them, then yes, of course - just call & do it yourself!

Answer 3

I have used them several times without any problems. If it is a restaurant that is highly popular, you may want to call and confirm the day before.

I haven't had any problems, but just in case, I always bring a print-out of my reservation confirmation.
