You've probably booked through SevenRooms without realizing it. When you click "Reserve" on a restaurant's own website and the booking form doesn't look like Resy or OpenTable, chances are it's SevenRooms working behind the scenes.
What Is SevenRooms?
SevenRooms is a restaurant reservation and guest management platform used by upscale restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and nightlife venues worldwide. Founded in 2011, it was acquired by DoorDash in early 2026.
What makes SevenRooms different from Resy or OpenTable is that it's a white-label platform. Instead of a central app where diners browse restaurants, SevenRooms embeds directly into each restaurant's own website. This means the booking experience looks like the restaurant's brand, not SevenRooms.
For diners, this has practical implications: there's no single "SevenRooms app" to manage all your reservations, no centralized notification system for cancellations, and finding or canceling a booking requires going back to the restaurant's site or your confirmation email.
How SevenRooms Reservations Work
Here's the typical booking flow:
- Visit the restaurant's website and click their "Reserve" or "Book a Table" button.
- Select your date, time, and party size from the SevenRooms widget embedded on their site.
- Enter your details — name, email, phone number, and any special requests.
- Add a credit card if required (some restaurants use this for no-show protection or deposits).
- Confirm your booking — you'll receive a confirmation email from the restaurant (not from SevenRooms directly).
Unlike Resy or OpenTable, SevenRooms doesn't have a "Notify Me" feature for sold-out restaurants. If a restaurant is fully booked, your only options are to check back manually or use a third-party monitoring service like ReservationFinder.
How to Find & Cancel a SevenRooms Reservation
Finding Your Reservation
Since SevenRooms doesn't have a central consumer app, finding your reservation can be less intuitive than on Resy or OpenTable:
- Check your email: Search for the restaurant name — your confirmation contains a link to view or modify the booking
- Check your texts: Some SevenRooms restaurants send SMS confirmations with a manage-booking link
- Contact the restaurant directly: They can look up your booking by name, email, or phone
How to Cancel a SevenRooms Reservation
To cancel:
- Find your confirmation email from the restaurant.
- Click the "Modify" or "Cancel" link in the email.
- Follow the prompts to cancel your reservation.
If you can't find the email, call the restaurant directly. Keep in mind:
- Cancellation policies vary: Some restaurants require 24-48 hours notice
- Deposits may be non-refundable: If you paid a deposit, check the restaurant's policy before canceling
- No-show fees: Restaurants may charge $25-$100+ per person if you don't cancel in time

SevenRooms vs Resy vs OpenTable
| Feature | SevenRooms | Resy | OpenTable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Central consumer app | |||
| Cancellation notifications | Notify | Notify Me | |
| Loyalty/points program | Regulars | ||
| White-label for restaurants | |||
| Hotel/nightlife support | Limited | ||
| Free for diners | |||
| Owner | DoorDash | Amex | Booking Holdings |
The biggest difference for diners: SevenRooms has no built-in way to get notified about cancellations. With Resy you can tap "Notify Me," and OpenTable has "Notify Me" — but SevenRooms restaurants offer nothing. This makes third-party alert services especially valuable for SevenRooms restaurants.
Tips for Getting Hard-to-Book SevenRooms Reservations
- Use a monitoring service: Since SevenRooms has no Notify feature, a service like ReservationFinder is the only way to get cancellation alerts for SevenRooms restaurants
- Book directly on the restaurant's website: SevenRooms bookings are always through the restaurant's own site, not a third-party app
- Check for release schedules: Many SevenRooms restaurants release tables on a fixed schedule (e.g., 30 days out). Learn the restaurant's pattern and be ready at release time
- Try off-peak times: Early seatings (5:30-6 PM) and late seatings (9:30+ PM) are easier to get, even at popular restaurants
- Call for special occasions: SevenRooms restaurants often hold tables for phone reservations and special requests that don't appear online
Monitor SevenRooms Restaurants
SevenRooms has no "Notify Me" feature. ReservationFinder fills the gap — we monitor SevenRooms (plus Resy, OpenTable, and Tock) around the clock and alert you the moment a table opens.

What is SevenRooms?
SevenRooms is a restaurant reservation and guest management platform used by high-end restaurants, hotels, and nightlife venues. Unlike Resy or OpenTable which are consumer-facing apps, SevenRooms primarily operates behind the scenes — restaurants embed it into their own websites. Popular SevenRooms restaurants include Momofuku Ko, Casa Tua, TAO, and many hotel dining rooms.
How do SevenRooms reservations work?
SevenRooms reservations are typically made through a restaurant's own website rather than a central app. When you click "Reserve" on a restaurant's site, you're often booking through SevenRooms' embedded widget. You select your date, time, and party size, then enter your contact information. Some restaurants require a credit card to hold the reservation.
How do I cancel a reservation on SevenRooms?
To cancel a SevenRooms reservation: find your confirmation email and click the "Modify" or "Cancel" link, or contact the restaurant directly. Unlike Resy or OpenTable, SevenRooms doesn't have a central app where you manage all your reservations. Each booking is tied to the specific restaurant. Cancellation policies vary — some restaurants require 24-48 hours notice or charge a fee.
How do I find my SevenRooms reservation?
Check your email for a confirmation from the restaurant (not from SevenRooms directly). The confirmation email contains a link to view, modify, or cancel your reservation. If you can't find the email, contact the restaurant directly — they can look up your booking by name, email, or phone number.
Does SevenRooms charge for reservations?
SevenRooms does not charge diners any fees. Restaurants pay SevenRooms for the platform. However, individual restaurants may require deposits ($25-$100+ per person) or charge cancellation/no-show fees. These are set by the restaurant, not SevenRooms.
Is SevenRooms the same as OpenTable or Resy?
No. While all three handle restaurant reservations, SevenRooms works differently. Resy and OpenTable are consumer-facing apps where diners browse and book restaurants. SevenRooms is a white-label platform that restaurants embed into their own websites — you may be using SevenRooms without knowing it. SevenRooms also powers hotel dining, nightlife, and event venues.
Which restaurants use SevenRooms?
SevenRooms is popular with upscale restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and nightlife venues. Notable users include Momofuku Ko and Ssam Bar (NYC), Casa Tua (Miami), TAO Group restaurants, MGM and Wynn hotel restaurants (Las Vegas), and many Michelin-starred establishments. It's particularly common in cities like New York, Miami, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles.
Does SevenRooms have an app?
SevenRooms doesn't have a widely-used consumer app like Resy or OpenTable. Restaurants using SevenRooms handle bookings through their own websites. As a diner, you interact with SevenRooms through the restaurant's booking page, not a central SevenRooms app.
Can I monitor SevenRooms restaurants for cancellations?
Yes. Since SevenRooms restaurants are often hard to book and don't have a built-in "Notify Me" feature, third-party services like ReservationFinder monitor SevenRooms restaurants around the clock and alert you when cancellations open up — much more effective than manually checking.
Did DoorDash acquire SevenRooms?
DoorDash announced its acquisition of SevenRooms in early 2026. The deal integrates SevenRooms' restaurant technology with DoorDash's delivery platform. SevenRooms continues to operate its reservation system for restaurants.
