Would You Make Dinner Reservations in Suwanee on Facebook?

A new service is available -- only on mobile, for now. Share your thoughts.

Now, dinner reservations in Suwanee and elsewhere are just a couple of "thumb clicks" away.

As noted on Mashable.com, Facebook is now allowing its users to make reservations at some nearby eateries through its mobile app.

Users must have the most updated version of the Facebook mobile app, and can access participating restaurants through the "nearby places" feature. 

The feature is part of a new integration with OpenTable, which allows users to make online reservations at about 20,000 U.S. dining establishments. A Facebook spokesperson said the company plans to gauge use and performance before making it available to other platforms, such as desktop.

In Suwanee, Cinco Mexican Restaurant is among the eateries at which Facebook users can make mobile reservations (see attached screenshot).
