I'm someone who eats out a lot, and in the price range of what you mentioned ($50/person). I've done the Yelp search/reservation two-step many times in other cities besides my own.

My honest feedback is that this service doesn't solve a problem for me. Most of the time, the key to any reservation for me is timing. My schedule can be a little volatile (not a lot), but two weeks ahead of time doesn't solve an issue for me.

Here's what would be helpful to me: based on my preferences, shoot me a message today about an opening somewhere tomorrow. Make it a push notification, and let me reply -- if yes, book it.
