## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not worth $2.99

*2018-08-21*

Without paying $2.99 for Pro, it's useless. Also smells to much of bait and switch. 

I clicked on a few included foods and found some translations going from Italian to Italian and others from Italian to English. Some were boilerplate history about the food item taken from a history book rather than a translation. 

I searched for some of my favorite Italian dishes (not to be confused with American Italian dishes). No where. Like with all the words that are included some mainstream regional dishes are mia. Lotta good that's going to do anyone sitting there reading a menu. 

Not good if it were free. For $2.99 it's a bit of an insult.

### 3/5 — Basic

*2020-02-03*

Even the pro version is pretty basic but it’s only $3. My biggest complaint is the UI. If you type in ‘mozzarella’ for example, everywhere that word is mentioned comes up and you have to scroll to the word. The direct entry should pop up first and the others afterward. Also, the phrases in the print version do not seem to be in the app.

### 5/5 — Elegant and Effective

*2025-06-16*

Great simple app which does exactly what it says it will do - help you identify all the food words you might encounter while traveling in Italy. The search function works quite well and it is comprehensive. A great addition would be having sound clips pronouncing each word but I am happy with the app as it it.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2013-07-17*

Fast easy and informative! I work in an upscale Italian restaurant and this app is good for the novice diner to the seasoned server.

### 5/5 — Really useful ...

*2013-06-27*

... no longer need to depend on "menu turistico"
