We believe bookings should belong to restaurants
Rezervato was born out of a simple belief: a restaurant shouldn’t pay a commission on guests it brought in itself.
Why Rezervato exists
Today’s guests book a table online – that part’s a given. What’s less obvious is how much the restaurant pays for it. Most booking platforms run on commission: the restaurant pays for every guest the system “brings in.” Even the regular who shows up every Friday. Even the guest who found the restaurant on Google all on their own.
The better business gets for the restaurant, the more it pays. That logic never made sense to us.
So we built Rezervato – a booking system with a fixed monthly price and zero commission. The restaurant knows exactly what it’ll pay, whether it takes 50 or 5,000 bookings. Guest data stays theirs. The relationship with the guest stays theirs. And so does the profit from a full room.
What we stand for
Fairness
No commissions or hidden fees. The price on the pricing page is the price you actually pay.
Your data is yours
Guest contacts and history belong to the restaurant, not to us. You can export them and leave at any time.
Simplicity
A system staff can learn in a single shift – no training, manuals, or IT department required.
Close to the market
We build for Czech and Slovak restaurants – in their language, for their reality.
Who’s behind Rezervato
Rezervato isn’t a corporate product with a team of managers and a marketing department. It’s an independent Czech project with no investors and no pressure to squeeze every last bit of value out of restaurants.
We’ve spent over 8 years in food service and HoReCa, and in that time we’ve heard hundreds of complaints about booking systems. It always came down to the same thing: the system was either expensive because of commissions, or cheap but missing the features an operation actually needs. There simply wasn’t a decent system at a fair price on the market – so we built one ourselves.
Every feature in Rezervato answers a specific problem we spent years hearing about from restaurants. And because we’re small, we’re also fast: feedback from restaurant owners makes it into the app within days, not quarters. When you write to us, you’re talking to someone who actually builds the product.

Where we’re headed
Our goal is to become the first choice for independent restaurants in Czechia and Slovakia that want to keep their bookings under their own control. We’re gradually adding features restaurant owners genuinely need – no-show deposits, SMS and WhatsApp notifications, or bookings straight from Google Search – and in the future we want to grow into other Central European countries too.
One thing won’t change, though: you will never see us charge a commission on your guests’ bookings.
Rezervato is an independent Czech project with no investors, built by people with over 8 years of experience in food service and HoReCa. It grew directly out of operational experience, in response to available booking systems being either expensive due to commissions or cheap but functionally lacking. Yes. Rezervato is developed in Czechia and targeted primarily at the Czech and Slovak HoReCa market – restaurants, cafés, bistros, and hotels. No. Rezervato is a bootstrapped project with no outside investors, which lets decisions be made based on what restaurants need rather than pressure for rapid growth or collecting commissions. Thanks to a small, independent team, feedback from restaurant owners makes it into the Rezervato app within days to weeks, not months or quarters as with larger corporate platforms. Rezervato’s founders spent over 8 years working in restaurant operations and repeatedly saw how booking commissions eat into a restaurant’s margin exactly when business is going best. That’s why Rezervato chose a fixed monthly price regardless of the number of bookings.
