We charge it to keep tables for guests who really show up: no-shows cost restaurants a table and keep other visitors from getting one. It covers us calling the restaurant for you, passing on your occasion and requests, and following up until you have an answer. If the restaurant cannot fit you in, we come back to you with alternatives, and if the restaurant is fully booked and we cannot get you a table, we refund your $20 in full.

Your table is not booked until we email you the restaurant's confirmation. Questions? WhatsApp +297 567 8664.
