OpenTable Review Widget for WordPress — Free, No Plugin Needed
BlooTrue's OpenTable Review Widget for WordPress is a free, plugin-free embed that displays your OpenTable reviews on any WordPress site. It works with both Gutenberg (block editor) and the Classic Editor, requires no coding, and works with any public OpenTable restaurant page — from fine-dining rooms and neighborhood bistros to cafés, steakhouses, and multi-location restaurant groups. Every review comes from a verified diner who booked through OpenTable and honored the reservation, and the widget shows real 1–5 star ratings — the header rating is your live OpenTable average, no conversion, no percentages. Unlimited widget views on every plan. 100+ widget styles (slider, marquee, grid, list, masonry, badge, compact badge) with light and dark themes plus a free custom color picker. SEO rich snippets — schema.org Review + AggregateRating JSON-LD — are injected automatically, making your WordPress pages eligible for star ratings in Google search results.

Does BlooTrue work on WordPress.com?
Self-hosted WordPress (wordpress.org, the 95% case) supports the widget fully. On WordPress.com, the Business tier or higher supports custom HTML and works. The free WordPress.com plan strips script tags for security, so the widget will not render there.
