Solution
Verified by Toppr

When we reach a restaurant where we have made a reservation for a table telephonically, we would first greet the staff at the restaurant politely. Then we would introduce ourselves (because the people at the restaurant would not know us). Then we would state that we have a reservation. In option B, the speaker politely greets the person at the restaurant with the phrase, 'Good evening'. Then he introduces himself with the sentence, 'My name is Brian'. Then he states that he has a reservation. Option B communicates the best response.
In options A, C and D, the speaker does not greet the person at the restaurant or introduce himself first. Without the introduction, the listener may not know who the speaker is and may not be able to respond correctly. Hence, these are not appropriate answers and options A, C and D are incorrect.
