FAQs

Create a unique dining experience through table reservations that goes beyond a standard booking. Experiences let you showcase what makes your restaurant special — whether it’s a chef’s tasting menu, a wine-pairing dinner, or a seasonal holiday brunch.

Fully customize each experience by setting the schedule, guest capacity, pricing, and booking options to fit your concept.

Make sure to add and set up Wix Table Reservations on your site.

Step 1 | Create an experience

Start by creating an experience to define what guests can book and how it appears on your site.

To create an experience:

Go to Experiences in your site's dashboard.
Click Create Experience.
Tip: Click + Add Experience if you've already saved at least one experience.
Enter your experience details using the options:
- Name: Enter the title of the experience.
- Cover image: (Optional) Upload the main visual that appears on your site.
- Summary: (Optional) Add a short description highlighting what guests can expect.
- Location: (If relevant) Click the drop-down and select the location for your experience.
  Note: The location can’t be changed after the experience is created.
Set the Price for your experience:
- Paid: Enter the amount per guest.
- Free: Select if there is no cost to attend.
Add information in the About the experience section so guests know what to expect. Choose the options that best represent your experience:

Step 2 | Set up your experience preferences

Once your experience is set up, fine-tune how guests book it. You can let them reserve online for select dates and times, or have them reach out to you directly to make a reservation.

You can also define important details like the maximum number of guests per time slot, party size limits, and how far in advance guests can reserve.

To customize experience perferences:

Go to Experiences in your site's dashboard.
Hover over the relevant experience and click Edit.
Set your experience preferences:
