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
| Method | How it works | When it's confirmed |
|---|---|---|
| Instant booking | For restaurants connected to AutoReserve, you book instantly by checking available seats | Confirmed the moment you book |
| Booking on request | For restaurants that mainly take phone reservations, AutoReserve contacts them on your behalf to check availability | You'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
- Open the restaurant on AutoReserve and request a booking with your date, time, and party size
- For a booking on request, AutoReserve contacts the restaurant to check availability (not yet confirmed at this point)
- You'll receive a "booking confirmed" notice by email or app notification
- 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
