### 1/5 — Broken App

*2018-12-29*

There is seemingly no way to purchase the complete book through this app. I have emailed about this issue, but with no response.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not for me

*2022-03-12*

If I wanted a book I would have bought one.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2020-12-30*

I paid $9.99 two years ago for  Where Chefs Eat App and now I have to spend $9.99 more to restore my purchase. I will take my chances on Yelp and Trip Advisor.

### 1/5 — Free app, but then you need to pay to use it

*2020-09-26*

No thank you, not impressed

### 1/5 — App works poorly

*2019-11-27*

Klunky app that searches extremely slow.  Overall doesnt work well.

And the map never seems to work

### 1/5 — I can’t get the app to open

*2019-11-11*

### 1/5 — Very disappointing!, NY.

*2019-11-09*

Only 2 restaurants listed in Westchester County.
And no free info, you have to pay $9.99 to get any info. Very misleading!

### 1/5 — Zero free content

*2019-11-09*

As soon as you open this app you find that it’s $9.99 to view anything at all. Why not just charge that in the App Store?

### 1/5 — Broken

*2019-08-11*

The app is broken and not working really on my iphone x. Why did I pay money for this??

### 1/5 — Completely unusable.

*2019-02-24*

Broken. Slow. It’s clear the developer did not even try to load the app before the released it.

### 1/5 — not for iPhone X

*2019-01-23*

you cannot use it on your iphone x. their navigation bar is right under your camera :)

## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Overall good

*2019-09-16*

Good app.
Wish it was a more comprehensive listing.  A lot of the restaurants have been booked for a long time.  I have been unsuccessful in booking any of them. May be a good thing as far as the restaurants represented, but I have a feeling that a few gems are being missed.

### 3/5 — Essential

*2019-03-22*

So many bad reviews. I’ll wait for the update!

### 2/5 — Near Me Does Not Work

*2019-11-17*

While on WiFi in London and Istanbul the Near Me just has a spinning circle of death. It isn’t picking up location I’ve check and rechecked my settings and the version of the app. Frustrating.

### 2/5 — Not easy to navigate - incorrect info

*2018-08-07*

Try to find a place in Portland Maine without it taking you to Oregon.

### 2/5 — Poor programming/editing

*2018-05-04*

When someone views restaurants in Cambridge, Massachusetts the app also lists them in Cambridge, UK and Cambridge, Ontario. Update: also includes a restaurant that closed in August 2015
