### OpenTable for Restaurants

- Title: [Is OpenTable free for restaurants?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/opentable-is-opentable-free-for-restaurants) — 1 comment
  > **Top comment:** "Not free and they charge per cover so quickly is quite costly over the monthly fee that they charge. Stick with the flat fee and better features of Seven Rooms."
