Restaurant staff using a laptop to create website to manage online reservations

Wix is a top pick for restaurants that want a sleek, user-friendly website without hiring a developer. It’s easy-to-use, easy to customize, and offers beautiful templates that make your menu and brand shine. But when it comes to taking online reservations, Wix’s built-in booking tools often fall short, especially for full-service restaurants that require an all-in-one solution for table reservations and management.

If you’re serious about maximizing bookings, managing tables, and reducing no-shows, you’ll need something more powerful for your restaurant website.

In this guide, we’ll explore the best restaurant reservation systems that work seamlessly with Wix and help you turn website visits into confirmed guests.

Why Wix users need a better reservation system

Wix Bookings is designed for a broad range of services; think yoga studios, salons, or consultants. It isn’t tailored to the unique needs of restaurants, such as:

  • Table management: Managing table layouts and turn times

  • Preventing no-shows with deposits or card verification

  • Reservation management: Assigning reservations based on capacity

  • Collecting guest preferences or allergies

  • Integrating with Reserve with Google and other channels

Guests today expect more than a simple form. They want instant confirmation, easy rescheduling, and mobile-friendly experiences. That’s where dedicated restaurant reservation platforms come in.

What to look for in a Wix-compatible reservation system

When choosing a reservation system for your Wix site, look for:
  • Easy website integration – ideally via embeddable widget or iFrame

  • Mobile-first booking – works smoothly on all devices

  • Floor plan and table control – assign guests and optimize turns

  • No-show protection – card verification, deposits, or prepayments

  • Customisable guest rules – group size limits, booking windows, etc.

  • Reserve with Google integration – capture guests from search & maps

  • Multilingual support – for tourist-heavy areas

  • Affordable pricing – especially if you’re a small or independent venue

Choosing the right reservation system

Ask yourself:

  • Do you want to own the guest experience, or rent it?

  • Are you optimizing for exposure or loyalty?
