What is Reserve With Google?
Reserve with Google is an online platform that allows customers to reserve tables at restaurants directly through Google Search and Google Maps.
It offers a seamless and easy way to make reservations without customers having to visit your website. By using the Google Company Profile of your restaurant, customers can reserve a table in just a few clicks.
So the biggest advantage is that customers book directly through Google, via Google Maps, for example. Your website is even totally redundant, although a combination of both options is usually the best choice.
