The most ridiculous reservation system… The most ridiculous reservation system ever!!! We paid $50 for a reservation for 7 at Cidercaide in Austin this past Friday evening. When we arrived, we acknowledged the table they had saved for us inside and asked if we could sit Outside. We were told that if there was an empty table, of course! Little did I know that our $50 reservation would still be charged to my credit card. I will never make a reservation at a restaurant or any place of business using Tock!!!!!

If I could give a 0 If I could give a 0, I would. Using Tock was a horrible experience and I have yet to figure out how to unlock and use the money on my gift card. Not only couldn’t I figure it out, but three waiters and the restaurant manager couldn’t figure it out. If the site promotes that you can book reservations and pay for them via gift cards during check out, it should work accordingly. This does not. I do not recommend this for any customer or business.

What a bunch of crooks What a bunch of crooks. They charged us $50 just to make a reservation at a NYC restaurant.

What value does Tock provide diners? I made a reservation for two at Daisies, a relatively new Chicago restaurant. We had a lovely time, but I will not go back if every time I make a Tock reservation I am charged $21 for two for nothing. As a frequent restaurant diner (3-4 times a week) I prefer Open Table and Resy. My partner prefers to call directly to restaurants. Now, I understand why.

Impossible to use this Tock gift card Impossible to use this Tock gift card. Been trying for a couple of years and can’t quite seem to unlock the secret key. Dine-in - nope. Wine shop - nope. Take out - maybe but only for large holiday meals? Ugh. We cast a pox upon the house of Tock.
