Solid App
Some features I’d like to see:
- a way to separate cities
- way to separate bars from restaurants
- no limit on characters
- more customizations for notes (being able to return, bold, etc)
- all lists to be in alphabetical order
- to be able to search and use tags on the map view
Love this app!
So far I’m really enjoying dish. I love that you can visit the restaurants website or call them through the app and you can also make comments for yourself to remember a certain dish you ordered.
Here are two immediate thoughts for improvement I have:
- a “been there” tab to log restaurants you’ve already tried. So far we have a favorites, top 20 and places to try, but I would like to have a running log of places I’ve already been to that might not necessarily be a favorite.
- adding things to different lists. When I downloaded the app I went straight to the “places to try” tab to integrate all of the restaurants from my running email draft. Even though I was already in the “places to try” tab, I would search a restaurant and then have to click again that I wanted it to go into “places to try” instead of “favorites” or “top 20.”
I would love if those changes could be considered for ease of use!
It’s only day one, but I’m excited!
It’s early days of the development of this app, so I look forward to future functionalities, including...
1) I agree with other users: I would like a folder function for different cities.
2) I also want to be able to add an image to the right of the restaurant name as I’m an extremely visual person, and that would help me when I’m using this app to choose my food preference.
3) And last, I’d like to be able to search tags when I’m in the map view—sometimes I may want my pizza tag applied but also to determine which pizza place to eat at by how far I have to travel.
All in all though, this seems to be a very promising app!!
So much potential but..
Great alternative to new defunct apps...
Dish does the job better than most other apps on the market (trust me, I’ve shopped around). It’s easy to search for places and comes with a good handle of which ones *still* exist (manually importing my bookmarks has made me face the tragic fact that some of them are now closed! 😭). But my favorite functionality is that you can search through both your custom tags AND notes all at once. THIS. IS. EVERYTHING.
Potential improvements that would really up the ante at this point are :
- the ability to create custom locations that don’t come up in searches.
- custom bookmark folders
- a functionality to “follow” another user’s lists, à la Vivino.
Otherwise a great app made (almost) perfectly for its purpose!
Need more
I do agree with the above - need to separate by city.
Lastly I’d like to manually add a restaurant that doesn’t come up automatically!
Thank you

Thanks for the review and feedback. Right now you can filter cities by searching a city name within a list (ex. “Los Angeles”). Soon we will release a new feature allowing you to make custom lists. Stay tuned!
So why 5 stars?
Saving my favorite spots with ease!
This could be awesome with some tweaks
Some other suggestions would be customizable folders. So I could maybe separate things by city or type of food. I know there are tags that I can set, and that leads me to my next suggestion.
Tag presets, maybe I could set them or have a recently used list or even what tags other users have used for that restaurant would be pretty convenient.
I could easily be swayed into giving more stars. I’m only on day 1 and this is what I’ve come up with so far.

Hello! You can signup with email by clicking “Signup” on the first screen - then type your name/email, and click “Signup”. The button below to signup via Facebook is an option, but not required. We’ll make sure to make that more clear on our next release. Appreciate the feedback about tags and folders, as those are both things we are actively working on! :)
