Meet PlateOut, the new discovery channel made in Italy

PlateOut is a discovery and booking channel designed to help people find the right place to eat. Every Italian restaurant already has a listing, completely free of charge.

A complete directory of restaurants and venues

PlateOut includes restaurants across Italy, even those without Plateform’s “Book a table” button, so visitors can find useful information to help them choose.

The information that helps people decide

Opening hours, addresses, price ranges and photos are collected from public sources such as Google and brought together in a dedicated listing for each restaurant.

Booking, where available

Venues using Plateform display a “Book a table” button, connected directly to the restaurant’s booking system.

Why your listing does not have a “Book a table” button yet

PlateOut brings together restaurants across Italy, and many can also be booked in just a few clicks. This feature is available exclusively to venues using Plateform to manage their bookings. Here is how to enable it 👇🏻
