Restaurants trust Dojo to facilitate amazing experiences. We drop more great places daily, so you're sure to find something you love. Features - Grab last-minute tables instantly - Queue virtually from up to 5km away - Book ahead and plan special occasions Feeling hungry now? You'll see the places nearby when you launch the app, and booking an available table is a couple of taps away. Restaurants offer last-minute tables, even at peak times. We've optimised the app to show you real-time availability, so grab your slot before somebody else does. Head over to the restaurant, who'll be expecting you, then take a seat and have a great time! Don't feel like queuing around the corner? For those extra-special, super-popular places, we offer virtual queuing. Join the queue and we'll send you real-time updates on your position and how long the wait is going to be. Then, you're free to find something better to do with your time. You can message the restaurant while you wait, and they'll notify you when your table is nearly ready. When you join Dojo, you'll be able to join the queue from 2km away. The more you show-up you'll unlock a greater range - up to 5km! Planning something special, or just like to be organised? Through Dojo, you can book up to a year in advance(1). This is great for those who like to plan ahead, and key to securing the perfect spot for a grand occasion. You can make a booking at restaurants for larger party sizes, with the entire experience handled directly in the app, including booking deposits, all powered by Dojo. Of course, you can amend or cancel your booking at any time, all through the app. Got a question or need some support? At Dojo we provide the very best in customer care.

Restaurants choose to join at their own discretion, to help fill empty tables and to create a buzz early into their service. That means what while you’re tucking into a sunny brunch or an elevated dinner for half the price, you're also helping restaurants start service strong. Discover new restaurants! Browse nearby restaurants to discover a hidden gem in your own backyard or lock in top-rated restaurants you’ve always wanted to try. Craving a particular meal? Restaurants are also searchable by restaurant name or cuisine. What’s the catch? There isn’t one - that’s the best part! First Table is a win-win for restaurants and diners alike. Restaurants get early customers through the door and diners get rewarded for dining at times that restaurants need them most.

Have friends you’d love to dine with? You can even earn credit by sharing First Table with other foodies!
