How to use it: 3 steps

  1. Make a free Apify accountApify is the cloud platform where our tools run. The free plan gives you $5 of usage every month, no credit card needed. You pay Apify, not us.
  2. Paste your input and press StartNo code needed: you fill in a form (the input). It already has a working example. For example: https://www.opentable.com/r/brooklyn-chop-house-new-york in Restaurant URLs or IDs. Each start is one run.
  3. Download the resultsWhen the run ends, the results are in a table (the dataset). Open Output, press Export and pick Excel or CSV. JSON and the API are there too.

This tool is an Apify Actor: a small program that runs on Apify. You can also run it on a schedule, for example every Monday. New to it? Read how it works, step by step and the 8 words you need first.

What it does

Paste OpenTable restaurant links and get their guest reviews with overall, food, service, ambience and value ratings, the dined date and the restaurant's reply, or search OpenTable restaurants by city and get cuisine, price band, rating, review count, address and phone. No login, cookies or API key.

  • Reviews — you add restaurant links or IDs. For each restaurant you get one restaurant row with its details, then its reviews, newest first (or highest / lowest rated first).
  • Search — you add a city or area. You get the restaurants OpenTable lists there, one row per restaurant, with details from each restaurant page.

Good for

  • Analysts who compare restaurants in a city by cuisine, price band, rating and review count.

Questions

Does it work with OpenTable UK or Canada?

Yes. Links from OpenTable country sites work, for example opentable.co.uk or opentable.ca. Numeric restaurant IDs work too.

Can I see table availability or menus?

No. The tool gets reviews and restaurant details only. It does not read bookings, menus or review photos.

How many reviews can I get for one restaurant?

OpenTable shows up to 10,000 reviews of one restaurant in one order. That is enough for most places.

Do I need a proxy or cookies?

No. It reads public pages without login, cookies or a proxy.

Which OpenTable sites work?

Links from any OpenTable country site, for example opentable.com, opentable.co.uk or opentable.ca, and numeric restaurant IDs. Search works with the location names OpenTable knows.

Why does Search find fewer restaurants than OpenTable says?

OpenTable's list pages change and overlap while you read them. For big cities the Actor may get fewer unique restaurants than the total OpenTable shows; it says so in a warning. Search a smaller area for a fuller list.

How fresh is the data?

Every row is read live during the run; fetchedAt shows when. Ratings on restaurant rows are OpenTable's averages of recent reviews.

  4. Keep Max reviews per restaurant (maxReviewsPerRestaurant) at the prefilled 20.
  5. Click Start.
  6. Open the Output tab, view Reviews, and check rating, text and dinedAt.

Tips for better results
  • Use the date filter on a weekly schedule to get only new reviews.
  • For a big city, search smaller areas to get a fuller restaurant list.
  • Choose lowest rated first to find problems quickly.
Limits and good to know
  • No reservations, table availability, menus or review photos (only photoCount)
  • Only public data. The Actor does not log in and does not return private diner data
  • OpenTable shows at most 10,000 reviews of one restaurant in one order. For more, run again with another sortReviewsBy
  • One run opens at most 40 OpenTable pages, because OpenTable blocks more. In Reviews mode that is 40 restaurants per run (reviews themselves do not count). In Search mode with details, about 38 restaurants get full details; the rest come with search-list data only
  • Search returns at most 1,000 restaurants per run (the maxItems maximum). OpenTable may list fewer unique restaurants for a big city
  • If OpenTable refuses every address the Actor tries in about two minutes, the run fails with a clear message; it does not return an empty result as success. Residential use per run is capped; past the cap the run goes on from its own address
