Yelp to wait in line for you at restaurants

Say goodbye to waiting in line at your favorite restaurant, because Yelp wants to do it for you.

The company that became famous for telling you the best places to go will now let you virtually wait in line for your table from the comfort of your home or anywhere else you would rather be instead of standing in line.

Thanks to a partnership with Nowait, Yelp will let you put your name down for a table at any of about 4,000 restaurants and send you a text when the table ready. If you’re running late, you can let the restaurant know by sending a text.

Yelp hasn’t offered an official launch date for its new feature, but expect to be remotely waiting for a table at your favorite dining spot in the next couple of months.
