Common questions
Can TABLEALL book any restaurant in Japan?
No. Its FAQ says it can only book its partner restaurants. For a restaurant outside that list, a calling service such as NativeCall can phone the restaurant directly.
Which costs less for a dinner for two?
They charge for different things. TABLEALL's FAQ lists a ¥8,000 booking fee per seat with a prepaid course. NativeCall charges a US$5 standard task fee and you pay the restaurant directly. Compare the total for the same restaurant and date.
Does either guarantee a table?
Only TABLEALL's instant-booking seats, which it buys in advance, are guaranteed. Request bookings and NativeCall calls both depend on the restaurant's availability.
