FAQ – for visitors (users)

What is Voutie and how does it work?

Voutie is a platform that helps people find a place based on a specific dish. People vote for the places where they enjoy that dish the most, and those votes create the rankings. It is not about reviews or star ratings — each vote means: “This is where I enjoy this dish the most.”

How do I find where to go for a specific dish in Prague?

Choose a specific dish in the rankings or search by location near you. Voutie shows places based on votes from people who think that dish is made best there.

Do I need to register to vote?

Yes. Registration is required to keep voting fair and ensure each user can have only one active vote for a single dish. You can still search for places and browse rankings without voting.

How many votes can I give?

You can have only one active vote for each dish. However, you can vote across multiple different dishes — for example separately for burger, pizza, sushi, or svíčková.

Can I change my vote?

Yes. You can revoke your vote at any time and give it to another place. This helps rankings continuously reflect people’s current preferences.

How is the order of places determined?

The order is based on the number of votes for a specific dish. The more votes a place has, the more people think that dish is made best there.

Why are there no negative reviews or ratings?

Voutie is built on a positive principle — people vote only for the place where they enjoy a specific dish the most. The restaurant as a whole, service, and atmosphere are not rated. This keeps results simple, clear, and free from unnecessary negativity.

Can I add a comment or photo?

Yes. You can add a short comment and one photo of the dish to your vote.

How do I find places near me?

Choose a dish and location. Voutie shows nearby places based on votes from people who voted for them in that dish category. We currently focus mainly on Prague, but we plan to expand to other cities over time.

What if my favorite place is not listed?

You can suggest it while voting. This creates a listing proposal that we verify before publishing.

What is a Free Drop and how do I use it?

A Free Drop is a time-limited offer with a predefined number of free dishes. If you meet the conditions of a specific Drop, sign in with a verified account, open an available ticket, and confirm it at the business within the specified time. Availability depends on the remaining capacity.

Can I report inappropriate content?

Yes. You can report a specific vote, comment, photo, or place if the content is inappropriate, misleading, or unrelated to that dish.

Is voting fair?

We try to make voting as fair as possible. Each user can have only one active vote for a single dish and can change it at any time. This helps results naturally show where people currently enjoy that dish the most.

What is the difference between search and rankings?

Search helps you find places by dish and location. Rankings show the order of Prague places based on people’s votes for a specific dish. Both use the same principle — votes from people who enjoy that dish there the most.

What does the vote count for a place mean?

The vote count shows how many people think this place makes that dish best. The more votes a place has, the higher it can appear in search results and rankings.

Can I use Voutie data in an article or post?

Yes. Credit Voutie.com, link to the specific live ranking and, ideally, include the date when you accessed the data. The order changes as new votes arrive.

FAQ – for restaurants / partners

Why should my place be on Voutie?

People on Voutie come with a clear intent — they want to find a place for a specific dish, such as a burger, pizza, or sushi. If your place has votes for that dish, it can appear to people who are deciding where to go for it.

How does my place appear on Voutie?

If a customer cannot find the place while voting, they can suggest it. This creates a listing proposal that we verify before publishing. Places are therefore discovered by the community.

Can I manage my restaurant profile?

Yes. First register, find your public business profile, and submit a claim request. Once verified, you receive access to profile management, data, and available tools.

Is listing or participation paid?

A public Voutie business listing remains free. Extended profile management may be available free of charge, as part of an introductory offer, or under the current price list on the For businesses page. Free access does not automatically become a paid service without an express agreement.

What are a Free Drop and a Mission?

A Free Drop is a pre-agreed time-limited activity in which a business gives away a set number of dishes. A Mission is a pre-agreed collaboration in which Voutie sends suitable Voutie Creators to the business for a tasting and authentic content creation. We always confirm the brief, scope, and timing in advance.

Can a company or brand partner with Voutie?

Yes. A company or brand that is not a direct competitor of participating businesses can support a specific Voutie Drop, become the official partner of a selected category, or create a competition, event, or another tailored activity with us. We always agree on the scope, outputs, and price individually.

How can I get more votes?

The simplest way is to let customers know they can vote on Voutie for the dish they enjoy most at your place. You can share your profile, mention Voutie on social media, or show it directly in your venue.

Can I influence my ranking?

The order is based on people’s votes. The more people vote for your place in a specific dish category, the higher you can appear in results and rankings.

What if someone adds inappropriate content?

Content can be reported and will be reviewed by an admin.

What’s the difference compared to Google reviews?

Google shows overall restaurant ratings — service, atmosphere, price, or general satisfaction. Voutie focuses on a specific dish. People do not rate the whole place; they vote for where they enjoy that dish the most.

Can Voutie bring me new customers?

Yes. People on Voutie often search for a specific dish and decide where to go for it. If your place has enough votes for that dish and appears high in results or rankings, the chance they choose you increases.
