Agree. For example, I made reservations at Varanese for Oaks Friday through OpenTable. Earliest I could get was 10:30. I called, and got in a hour earlier.
Also, some restaurants won't allow reservations for very large groups through OpenTable, so it's feasible you couldn't make a reservation for 11 at Lou Lou ever through OpenTable. In fact, I think I ran into this problem trying to get a table for 8 at the St. Matthews Lou Lou a few months ago--it told me nothing was available, but when I called they easily got us in.
