Hacer una reserva

Make a reservation

To book a table, room, or ticket in advance.

🌍

문화적 배경

In Spain, reservations for dinner are rarely made before 8:30 PM. If you book for 7:00 PM, you might be the only one in the restaurant. It is very common to use the word 'reservación' instead of 'reserva'. Both are perfectly understood. In Buenos Aires, popular 'parrillas' (steakhouses) require reservations weeks in advance. Don't just show up! People are very polite. When making a reservation, it's common to start with 'Hágame el favor de...' (Do me the favor of...).

💡

Use 'Me gustaría'

Instead of 'Quiero' (I want), use 'Me gustaría' (I would like) to sound more polite when making a reservation.

⚠️

Check the 'H'

Never pronounce the 'H' in 'hacer'. It is always silent.

The Name Game

When they ask '¿A qué nombre?', just give your last name. It's more common than using your first name.
