Reserving a restaurant table

The idea

Use book a table to request a reservation; give the time, party size and any seating needs.

Examples

• I would like to book a table for Friday.
• There will be four of us.
• Do you have anything available at seven?
• Could we sit near the window?
• We need space for a wheelchair.
• The reservation is under the name Brown.

Watch out

A time alone does not tell the restaurant how many seats to prepare.
