Hi,
I was curious if anyone has used mytable.com to make restaurant reservations in Europe (more specifically, Italy). It looks like the European version of OpenTable. I'm hoping to make a few reservations, but I wanted to know if anyone knew if it's a reliable site.
Thanks!
Well, I submitted a few requests for reservations through MyTable.com. I got texts/emails stating that they couldn't get ahold of the restaurants and would keep trying. After several days waiting, I gave up and contacted one of them myself but waited on the other since it required an international phone call. Out of the blue today, I got an email from them saying my reservation was confirmed! They stated that the restaurant only had two seatings, so they reserved the one closest to my requested time and to let them know if I wanted the other seating.
So, I'm not sure how I would rate them... at least I don't have to make an international call now (hoping that we won't have an issue when we get there). I'd try them again, but be prepared to contact the restaurant myself.
I also submitted a request for a spot I was having a hard time contacting by phone, and they sent a similar message to me saying they had not been able to reach the restaurant over a 24 hour period. I gave it 2 or three days then responded to them, asking if the request was still alive, they answered back promptly that they learned the restaurant was closed for holiday and gave me the date they were due back, and that the request was still active-all good information. I'll see if they contact me then, but I would have to say so far so good.
