update - after doing some research online, I found I was able to just reply to the text message with “yes” and it confirmed the reservation.

      You call the restaurant and explain the reason, they would be super happy to mark as cancelled on Yelp, but still keep booked on their system: Yelp is not giving this service for free, but they charge a lot of money on each single reservation.

      And hopefully realize to stop offering the service at all
