Hello - any dyslexic foodie's out there?

I'd like to hear from foodie's with dyslexia or related cognitive disabilities whether OpenTable may present accessibility problems around choosing reservation dates.

I’ve had multiple instances of making reservations for the wrong day on OpenTable, and some of those errors led to financial penalties. Since this has happened more than once, I’m interested in whether others have experienced the same pattern and whether this points to a larger accessibility issue with the app.

Are you dyslexic and specifically had trouble with OpenTable?

I’m not just looking for anecdotes in isolation. I’m trying to gather experiences that may help clarify whether this is a recurring access issue affecting disabled users, and whether there are actions worth taking collectively.

If you’ve experienced something similar, please share.

Dyslexic's Untie!

I’m trying to collect information from people with dyslexia, and from others with perceptual, learning, cognitive, or intellectual disabilities, about whether OpenTable may present accessibility problems around choosing reservation dates.

I’ve had multiple instances of making reservations for the wrong day on OpenTable specially, and some of those errors led to financial penalties. Since this has happened more than once, I’m interested in whether others have experienced the same pattern and whether this points to a larger accessibility issue with the app.

I’d like to know:

• Have you booked the wrong day on OpenTable by accident?
• Is there something about the calendar or reservation flow that feels easy to misread or misinterpret?
• Does this happen with other apps, or mainly OpenTable?
• Have you been charged a fee because of it?
• Would you be interested in helping document these experiences so we can identify patterns and possible next steps?
