Food Mafia

With Food Mafia, you no longer need to filter through anonymous, negative reviews to find trusted restaurant recommendations. We have invited select diners and industry professionals that share your taste in great food. What started as a tongue-in-cheek reference to a mock crime syndicate became the inspiration for the exclusive restaurant recommendation site FoodMafia.com. Referring to the process that founder Stacy Johnson went through with her friends to try great, unique restaurants, the reference blossomed into a business idea that took off. Realizing that the best recommendations were always from friends or trusted, credible sources that had similar tastes, Stacy wanted to help others quickly find a great dining experience but without all the negative, anonymous reviews. Food Mafia has made this process easy and fun! We have done the dirty work for you. With Food Mafia, you no longer have to do research and filter through negative, anonymous reviews to find trusted restaurant recommendations. We have invited our favorite diners, chefs, and industry professionals from around the world to join together to share their favorite restaurants. From 24 course meals to food stands, we have members that truly share your taste in food. Use the Food Mafia app to find your next great dining experience by selecting your filters and running a search. Food Mafia has International recommendations but Chicago, New York, San Francisco, and LA are the most popular. You can find additional filters by sliding the headers bar in the Filters section. Track your favorite restaurant and share and receive customized recommendations, you can make Food Mafia work for you without having to do any of the hard, dirty work!
