Yeah, but http://www.opentable.com/ looks like a link farming site at first glance.

Wow, opentable.com does look like a link farm if you just skim it over. Great site and concept for sure…might want to refresh the home page design.

They certainly should do something with their design. It looks like another parked domain with a link farm on it. Awful. They must be loosing lots of first-time visitors. I would like to see their bounce rates.

Peasant, one of my favourite restaurants in NYC ! Make sure you go to Gimme Coffee on Mott St afterwards :D

Agree with other comments, very ugly site! I also find the UI too US only (well, I don’t count the tiny area with International links) focussed. It’ll never take off outside the US with an interface like that.
