This is almost similar to Working Times in the basic settings, but here, you can configure it more thoroughly. This allows you to set a time where you are open in the morning and close in the afternoon and open again in the evening. This also allows you to require a 1-hour advanced reservation for lunch or a 3-hour advanced reservation for dinner, etc.
As you can see, this is a powerful setting as it allows you to effectively manage your time, thus giving you and your crew enough time to rest, work or prepare for a certain reservation.
To define open times, click new:
Name your defined open time, it can be whatever you choose.
I just wrote standard as the name. In order to add times, you have to click on the actions, which will bring up three options:

The settings
There will be two options that you can configure. The Time before reservation and the open times.
Time Before reservation
Here, you can specify the amount of time reservations should be taken in advance depending on the weekday.
Open Times
Here, you can set your restaurant's opening and closing times. You can specify a different set of opening and closing times for each day. So, if you have shortened open times during weekends, you can easily configure it here. If you are closed on a certain day, you just leave the field empty. Remember to use the 24-hour format in the time fields.
Sunday is empty, meaning the restaurant is closed. Other days are filled.
With the screenshot above, we left Sunday fields empty, which means that our restaurant is closed during that day. Note that the selection below is greyed out, meaning the user can’t select any dates that fall under a Sunday.
Sunday is greyed out.
