The past week at SerpApi brought new API releases, expanded scraping capabilities, steady improvements to existing APIs, and a range of important bug fixes.

⭐️ Top Updates

OpenTable Reviews API (NEW API)

We released a new OpenTable Reviews API that provides structured access to reviews and rating data from OpenTable restaurant pages. The API returns full review content, user details, ratings for food, service, ambience, images, and restaurant responses. It also includes a complete ratings summary with distribution counts, category breakdowns, and OpenTable’s AI-generated review summary. This gives developers a powerful way to analyze diner feedback, track customer sentiment, and integrate rich review data into their applications. Details
