OpenTable

For anyone who likes to go out to eat, and is looking for new places to do so, OpenTable is for you.  Go to OpenTable.com and select your city of preference and let the fun begin.  You can enter the number of people in your party and the time and search for open tables in any restaurant across the city, or search particular restaurants.   The purpose of the site is to make dinner reservations free and easy: right over the internet, no phone tag with the hostess.  Is it the grandparent’s anniversary?  Let open table know when filling out the reservation and your server will bring out a happy anniversary desert at the end of the meal.  No pretending to go to the bathroom to find your waiter and ask for a cake with candles.  Maybe it is your own anniversary or a loved one’s birthday?  Let OpenTable know and they can arrange for roses at the table or flowers delivered during dinner.  Signing up and logging in also alerts you to new restaurants and sweet deals.  And since iPhones and Droids are all the rage don’t forget to download their free application.  One day we were running late for dinner and the kitchen of the restaurant we intended to go to closed at 9:00 p.m.  No biggie.  Opened up OpenTable and within minutes we had a reservation for two at Gaslight in the South End.  Neither of us had been there before but we really enjoyed it, great food and adjacent free parking.  I would recommend the site or the app for any restaurant junkies, or someone just looking to try new places and great deals.
