It is not an OpenTable problem. It is a two-week window.
Ada's on the River sits on the Old Town Alexandria waterfront with a wood-fire kitchen and a menu that runs steaks, chops, and seafood. The patio in season faces the Potomac; the dining room runs about a hundred seats.
OpenTable opens two weeks ahead. Patio and prime-time tables clear first in season; the bar takes walk-ins for the full menu. The kitchen does not run a separate tasting counter.
