OpenTable reviews on any restaurant site.

When a prospective diner clicks through to your OpenTable page, they leave your site and land in a directory where several competing restaurants are one tap away. Embedding your OpenTable reviews on your own menu, reservation, and chef pages keeps the diner on your funnel, lets you control the surrounding context, and gives you the SEO benefit of structured-data star markup on your own domain. The widget pulls the reviews that already exist on your public OpenTable restaurant page and renders them in your brand, so visitors see the same diner feedback and star rating without ever leaving your site. That is why diner reviews belong above the fold on your reservation page, not buried on your about page.

Poper does not use OAuth, an account login, or a partner API. You copy your restaurant page URL from OpenTable, paste it into the Poper builder, and Poper reads the public OpenTable restaurant page to pull the diner reviews and star rating. That URL is the only input the widget needs. When new reviews land on OpenTable, re-sync from the builder to refresh them. Because the widget reads a public page, there is no GuestCenter password to manage and no integration to break. This makes the widget simple to set up on a single restaurant site or across a group's restaurant pages: one URL in, a branded review block out, embedded with a single script tag.

When Google sees a properly formatted AggregateRating JSON-LD block on your restaurant page, it can render star ratings next to your organic search result for high-intent queries like best italian restaurant downtown or a direct branded search for your restaurant name. Diners visually filter on rating before they click, so a starred result tends to draw more clicks than an unmarked one. Poper includes an optional SEO schema setting. Turn it on and the widget injects Review and AggregateRating JSON-LD into the page where it is embedded. After embedding, validate your restaurant page at search.google.com/test/rich-results and you should see Review and AggregateRating detected. It typically takes one to three weeks for Google to re-crawl and start surfacing the stars. The schema setting is available on every plan, including Free.

Poper ships 21 review layouts and you can switch between them per page from the dashboard without re-embedding. A few practical pairings for restaurant sites: the carousel works well above the fold on the homepage and the reservation page where vertical space is limited and you want to show variety. The grid and masonry layouts suit a menu page or a dedicated reviews page where a diner wants to scan many reviews to form a rounded view. The photo grid layout works when your diner reviews include images. The quote wall and list layouts work on the about page or a chef page where a longer review reads well. Match your restaurant brand with the color, star color, typography, corner radius, and shadow controls, and toggle the OpenTable logo on or off depending on how prominent you want the source attribution.

The widget gives you precise control over what shows on each page. Set a minimum rating to keep low-star outliers off a high-traffic reservation page, and turn on hide-empty-reviews to drop ratings that have no written text. Element visibility toggles let you show or hide the reviewer name, avatar, review date, star rating, OpenTable logo, and the header block independently, so the same reviews can render as a full card on a menu page and as a compact strip on the homepage. None of this requires code: every control is in the Poper editor, and custom CSS is available when you need pixel-level control.

OpenTable reviews do not replace Yelp, Google Business, or TripAdvisor reviews for a restaurant. Many strong restaurant sites stack more than one review source on the same site. A common pattern is the Poper OpenTable Reviews widget on the reservation, dining-room, and chef pages where booking intent is highest, the Poper Google Reviews widget in the global footer for local-search visitors, and the Poper Yelp or TripAdvisor widget on the about page. Each widget is set up the same way: paste the platform URL, pick a layout, embed. Because every Poper review widget shares the same component, the layout controls, filters, and optional schema setting work identically across all of them, so you can build a consistent review experience across the whole restaurant site from one Poper account.
