OpenTable Review Widget for PrestaShop — Free, Shows the Reviews OpenTable's Widget Won't
BlooTrue's OpenTable Review Widget for PrestaShop is a free, module-purchase-free embed that displays your OpenTable reviews on any PrestaShop site. OpenTable's official website widget only takes reservations — it books tables but never shows the reviews diners leave. BlooTrue fills that gap by pulling reviews from any public OpenTable restaurant page and turning them into a paste-ready PrestaShop embed. Every review comes from a verified diner — someone who booked through OpenTable and honored the reservation — and the widget shows real 1–5 star ratings with your native OpenTable average, no conversion. PrestaShop is the dominant open-source e-commerce platform in France and across the EU, popular with restaurants selling gift cards, merchandise, and takeaway online; PrestaShop 1.7 is still widely deployed and PrestaShop 8.x is the current major. The HTML Block module ships free in core on both versions, and BlooTrue pastes into the HTML Block's Source view — no Addons purchase, no PHP edits, no API access, no partner integration, no restaurant-account login required. Hooks into displayHome, displayFooter, displayLeftColumn, displayRightColumn, displayTop, displayNav, or any custom hook your theme exposes. For inline placement, paste directly into a CMS page via Design → Pages → Source view.

Why doesn't OpenTable's official widget show reviews?
OpenTable's first-party widget is built to do one thing: book tables. It never displays the verified-diner reviews that convince people to reserve in the first place, the way Trustpilot publishes TrustBox or Google publishes Place Cards. Third-party widgets are the standard way PrestaShop-powered restaurant sites surface their OpenTable reviews — BlooTrue is the free option in that category.
