When a table is not free, is it taken/kept/another word?
Let's imagine you enter a restourant with your baby and you want to let him to choose a table for you. The baby pointed to the table that is not free. What would you say?

Examples:
There are people at that table. It's taken/kept (?) We need free one. Choose one of these/those.

There are no people at the table, but you can see some food on the plates. Let's choose another one.

Thank you for your help!

Answer

If people are there: taken, not free,
No people: not ready, not cleaned
I guess!

Answer

That table is taken/occupied. Pick one of the free ones.
There are people sitting at that table. Pick a table that doesn't have any people.
That table hasn't been cleaned yet, pick one that is ready.

Answer

The waiter can say, sorry  sir- ma'am that  table is reserved already.
