NYC’s most trusted food app

No other way to know about all the pop ups happening daily in nyc other than this app. It’s a must!!

Looks good

The app is very interesting, I’m always looking for new places to enjoy and with this app I’m hoping to find some. My only disappointment is that it’s new and doesn’t cover a lot of New Jersey. I’ve seen some but they mostly are NYC. I’ll give it some time to build up the numbers. The concept is really great for a foodie like me. Good luck in future.

So gr8 - and fun!

Discovered this app while on a trip to NYC (h/t to the good folks at Lil Frankie’s), and love that I can use it here at home in LA. Take it for a spin - you won’t be disappointed, you won’t go hungry, and you’ll probably find a bunch of spots and dishes that you didn’t know/wouldn’t have tried otherwise.

Love this app

I use this whenever I am in NYC and want to grab a bite. No Karen’s, just quick easy to read reviews from some of the most knowledgeable NYC diners I trust

Amazing App

Everytime I go to NYC this is a premiere app for all my foodie needs. Love that it curates the best options in the area that I’m in making finding exactly what I want easier, and no review from and unsatisfied customer because of a problem with staff or some

Thanks Matt! We can't wait to take this beyond NYC 🚀 Thank you for believing in us, and welcome to the 8it Fam

New to NYC. SO HELPFUL!

Just moved into downtown NYC and I use 8it all the time!

Its perfect for areas like Chinatown where there’s an over saturation of the same foods… really helps weed out the nonsense!

Also great for last minute date plans if your need a reliable review source!

The recommendation are always spot on!

Delete all your other food apps

8it has it all!!! They track every top dish reco & all the hottest food pop-ups, as well as the limited edition dish drops from the best restaurants in NYC. Then it connects you to everything you’d want in one button (order delivery, how to get there, restaurants IG, website, etc)

MUST HAVE IN NYC 🤤

Let me tell you, if you don’t have the 8it app while embarking on a food tour in NYC you may fall victim to the Hardrock cafes and miss out on the hidden gems. This app single handedly curates the most delectable dishes with food porn photos that are nothing short of drool worthy. They’ll bring the food to you or scoop you up and take you there. I can’t wait until they’re global‼️

Completely useless without the “password”

When you download this, you have to have a “password” to use it. To get this password you have to reach out to the devs on Instagram(???) and give them personal information.

This honestly feels like a weird scam. Just make your app work normally or remove it from the store.

Response from developer

Hey there - We’re only a small team of 2 people running the NYC area. We are only in BETA so it's very important to us that we develop a community with our users. We aren't collecting any personal information at all, just offering our users the ability to reach out to us directly in real-time for any customer service issues, feedback and even ideas to make the app better. Your 1-star review really hurts our chance at success, and we're just trying our best 🙏 I hope you'll reconsider/edit the 1-star rating and invite you to email me directly if you have any other feedback: steve@8itapp.com

Wish this was more... accessible? App requires a password, with the only way to get it by answering company survey questions on an Instagram DM. I just wanted to use the app.
