Open Table
The OpenTable & Visa Dining Collection launches today in Los Angeles and Chicago. Primetime reservations at select restaurants in these cities will be exclusively available to OpenTable diners who book with eligible Visa cards. The Collection, which includes restaurants from MICHELIN-starred venues to local favorites and beloved culinary destinations, will grow to more than 500 restaurants across 34 North American cities1 by 2025. Visa Infinite® cards, issued in the U.S. and Mexico, and Visa Infinite Privilege® cards, issued in Canada, are eligible at launch, with plans to offer the benefit to more Visa cardholders in the future.
“We are welcoming hundreds of the most sought-after and award-winning restaurants to OpenTable this year,” said Debby Soo, CEO of OpenTable. “We are thrilled to work with Visa to introduce their cardholders to amazing dining experiences and support the growing number of incredible restaurants on our platform in the process.”
“The Visa Dining Collection rewards diners for paying with their Visa cards while bringing the restaurants in the Collection additional business and new customers,” said Kim Lawrence, regional president of North America at Visa. “We are excited to collaborate with OpenTable to support the award-winning, local, and independently operated restaurants on the platform by offering this new benefit for eligible Visa cardholders.”
Ryan Bailey, co-owner of Kato, said, “Our ambition is to be one of the best restaurants in the world, and OpenTable is the perfect partner to help us realize that vision with the best in restaurant tech, hands-on support and access to unique initiatives like the Visa Dining Collection.
