It is not an OpenTable problem. It is a two-week window.
Original Joe's Walnut Creek runs the East Bay chapter of the Joe's lineage with an Italian-American red-sauce menu and a dining room that pulls weekend volume from across the East Bay corridor. The room sits inside SF-area secondary-market top 30.
OpenTable opens two weeks ahead. Weekend prime tables clear first; weeknights and the late seatings stay open longer. The bar takes walk-ins for the full menu.
