Response from developer

It pulls info from Yelp. Try changing your filters to get better results. Hope that helps.

Decision made!

Great app. Easy to use. Found a great little restaurant near us that we had no clue was there. Helps me and my wife decide where to eat. Plain and simple.

Food Genie granted our food wishes

The omnivores dilemma is that when the options are endless the choice is complex.

Not so with food genie. We consider him our unbiased third party and decision maker!

Terrible

Same few choices over and over constantly repeating itself. Very disappointed

Response from developer

Thank you for reviewing. The results are based on what is around you. If there is not much try looking at filters. Expand your search area. Hope that helps and if so please review again.

Nifty app for foodies with smart phones

Used in South Bay Los Angeles and Nashville. Picks winners and haven’t been disappointed yet- except when I DIDN’T use it!

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind words. There is more to come so keep an eye out.
