OpenTable Review Widget for Square Online — Free, Made for Restaurants
BlooTrue's OpenTable Review Widget for Square Online is a free embed that displays your OpenTable reviews on any Square Online site. This may be the highest-affinity pairing in our catalog: Square Online is the free site builder bundled with Square POS — the platform fine-dining rooms, neighborhood bistros, cafés, and steakhouses build on — and OpenTable is where those restaurants earn their most trustworthy reviews, because every one comes from a verified diner who booked and honored a reservation. Yet there's a double gap: OpenTable's official website widget only takes reservations — it never displays reviews — and Square's App Marketplace has no OpenTable review-display app. BlooTrue fills both gaps with a pure HTML embed pasted into Square Online's standard Custom code section: open Square dashboard → Online → Website → Edit site, click + Add section, choose Custom code under More, paste, Publish. Custom code sections are supported on the Square Online free plan on most layouts. OpenTable is a native star platform, so the widget shows your real 1–5 star average straight from OpenTable — no conversion, no percentages. 100+ widget styles, light and dark themes, free custom color picker, and schema.org Review + AggregateRating JSON-LD injected automatically.

Why OpenTable + Square Online is the natural pairing
Square Online powers the websites of restaurants — from café counters to white-tablecloth dining rooms — and OpenTable holds the reviews diners trust most, because only guests who honored a reservation can leave one. Diners deciding to book a table check those reviews first. Embedding your OpenTable reviews next to your menu, online-ordering button, or reservation link keeps that verified-diner proof on YOUR site at the moment of decision — no detour to opentable.com where competing restaurants are one tap away — and it reinforces the OpenTable presence your regulars already know.
Why doesn't OpenTable's own widget show reviews?
OpenTable's official website widget is built to do one thing: take reservations. It never displays your reviews — OpenTable keeps those on its own directory to drive bookings through its marketplace. There is no paste-ready OpenTable review embed the way Trustpilot publishes TrustBox or Google publishes Place Cards, and Square's App Marketplace has no OpenTable display app. Third-party widgets like BlooTrue are the canonical way to surface OpenTable reviews on a Square Online site.
