SAN FRANCISCO, April 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- OpenTable, the
world's leading provider of online restaurant reservations and part

experience for Apple Watch.
"We're excited to be one of the first apps available for Apple
Watch and eager to continue to build upon this foundation," said
Jocelyn Mangan, Senior Vice

is a natural extension of our popular iPhone app and Pay with

for diners to engage with OpenTable while they're on the go."
