My favorite that I’ve used for years, foursquare, is shutting down in a few days. Pretty bummed because I found some of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to with it. 15 years and thousands of reviews, all in the trash now.

Google maps is useless for most cities, in mine every restaurant has a 4.7-4.8, and seems gamed.

Yelp is an awful company I’d rather not use, and its based on top reviewers, rather than reviews.

Tripadvisor is missing way too much to be useful.

What are ppl using nowadays?

    Yelp and more scrolling past ads. Mostly caring about style and food pics. Reviews are pretty trash, so depending on the type of place anything 3+ Stars is generally worth looking at.
