"The convenience and benefits that our diners and restaurant customers enjoy today are just the beginning of the value we can deliver as a company focused more broadly on the experience of dining out," said Matt Roberts, Chief Executive Officer of OpenTable.  "Just as we solved the pain of booking a reservation, we have a tremendous opportunity to solve the pain of settling the check, and Washington, D.C. is a natural place to demonstrate this."
