PrePlate.co

Restaurants open, close, and change faster than any single list can keep up with. PrePlate exists to close that gap — surfacing new openings, upcoming debuts, and real dining news as they happen, instead of a static directory that's out of date the week it's published.

What you'll find here

  • New Openings — restaurants worth knowing about before they're common knowledge, added as they're confirmed, not batched into a monthly roundup.
  • City Guides — every restaurant we've covered in a given city, in one place, so you're not piecing it together from ten different sources.
  • News — short, straightforward write-ups on what's actually happening: openings, closings, and the occasional trend worth calling out.

Every restaurant on PrePlate is tracked from real public signals — licensing filings, permits, corporate records, and dozens of other sources — not submissions or paid placement. If it's here, it's because something real is actually happening at that address.

PrePlate.io

PrePlate.io is a related platform built for the other side of the industry: sales teams and vendors who need to know when a restaurant is coming before it opens. Instead of dining recommendations, it's built around business signals — automated alerts on newly identified restaurants, visibility into what technology platforms they're running, and an API feed of continuously updated restaurant data.

For now, the PrePlate.io database is only tracking restaurants located in Florida.
