How booking through AutoReserve works

AutoReserve is a service that lets you search for and book restaurants around the world in Japanese. Each restaurant's page shows whether it can be booked instantly or whether it's a "booking on request" restaurant, where AutoReserve contacts the restaurant on your behalf to secure a table.

The difference between an instant booking and a booking on request

MethodHow it worksWhen it's confirmed
Instant bookingFor restaurants connected to AutoReserve, you book instantly by checking available seatsConfirmed the moment you book
Booking on requestFor restaurants that mainly take phone reservations, AutoReserve contacts them on your behalf to check availabilityYou're notified of confirmation by email or in-app notification once the restaurant replies

With a booking on request, it takes time to hear back from the restaurant, and the reservation isn't confirmed until you do.

4 steps from booking to your visit

  1. Open the restaurant on AutoReserve and request a booking with your date, time, and party size
  2. For a booking on request, AutoReserve contacts the restaurant to check availability (not yet confirmed at this point)
  3. You'll receive a "booking confirmed" notice by email or app notification
  4. Show up at the restaurant on your reserved date and time

What to watch for before and after booking

  • A booking may not go through if the restaurant is fully booked, among other reasons
  • Due to relocations or multiple branches, the address listed on AutoReserve may differ from the actual one. Please check the address in your booking confirmation
  • Business hours and closing days may change, so please check the restaurant's page for the latest information
