HardEverything you need to know about OpenTable alerts.
ReservationFinder monitors OpenTable restaurant availability every 5 minutes. When a table matching your preferences opens up, we send you an instant alert with a direct link to book on OpenTable.
No. We monitor publicly available reservation data. You book directly on OpenTable using your own account when we alert you to an opening. Your credentials are never shared with us.
Yes! Since you complete the booking on OpenTable directly, you earn all your regular OpenTable Dining Points. ReservationFinder just helps you find the openings faster.
OpenTable's waitlist feature is helpful but can be slow. ReservationFinder checks every 5 minutes and covers multiple platforms (OpenTable, Resy, SevenRooms) so you have the best chance of catching cancellations.
With ReservationFinder Pro ($20/month), you can monitor up to 10 restaurants across OpenTable, Resy, and SevenRooms, plus follow entire cities for same-day availability alerts. Basic ($10/month) allows up to 3 restaurants, and there's a 7-day free trial to get started.
Many restaurants release reservations 14-30 days in advance, often at midnight or 9-10 AM local time. Our monitoring catches both scheduled releases and cancellation-based openings throughout the day.
Many restaurants use different booking systems. We monitor them all.
