As a restaurant owner, your ultimate goal online is to drive reservations and OpenTable can help you achieve just that. With the OpenTable block, your visitors will be able to book a table right from a post or page on your site.

If you do not have an OpenTable listing for your restaurant or cafe and wish to create one, you can sign up here.

To use the OpenTable block, your site needs to have an active WordPress.com Premium or Business plan.
