When this could help
Useful whenever you need to find and book a restaurant — especially when you have specific requirements across multiple dimensions that would normally mean checking several apps.
ChatGPT can now search for open restaurant reservations through OpenTable, Resy, and Yelp. Tell it your preferences (location, time, party size, cuisine, budget, dietary needs, atmosphere) and available times appear inline. Ask follow-up questions to narrow options, then select a time to book.
How to get started
Tell ChatGPT where and when you want to eat, your party size, and any preferences. Available times appear in the response. Ask follow-up questions to narrow options, then select a time to book.
