The best app to see where your friends are eating
I used to use Google maps but this is way cooler because you can follow your friends and share cool spots
super easy & fun!
so nice to be able to see the restaurants / cafes / bars my friends are going to and loving! super useful when traveling to different cities and I can see their go-to spots. plus I love that my places update automatically!
Response from developer
We love hearing that Zest is making it easier to discover through people whose taste you actually trust—that's exactly what we built it for! Your point about automatic updates is spot-on; it means you're always seeing the real places your friends are genuinely going back to, not just what they posted once. Thanks for being part of the Zest community, and happy exploring in those new cities!
I love zest!!
Best food review app on the market
Love it, Love it, Love it!!
Finally an app pertaining to food and food only. No more needing to waste time on google, easy to share with friends, and constantly finding new places with just the touch of a finger. I’ve already shared with friends, created lists, and now we have some upcoming engagements in various parts of the Bay. Thanks for this app!!

Go-To App for Where to Eat!
I love using Zest to quickly see where my friends have eaten. Even if they haven’t rated the place, I know I’m more likely to enjoy it if my friends have eaten there. Super useful when traveling so you don’t wind up wasting a meal out! If all else fails the AI recommendations are on point - perfect for a quick vibe check.

A one of a kind experience
Zest is better than beli, and better than Foursquare ever was. All my friends use it and it’s brought us so much closer together, I’ve found a bunch of great new spots based on their activity. Trending spots is cool too. Keep up the great work!
Super well done
Such a good idea, and really well executed. Not needing to check in manually is so smooth. I’ve started recommending to all of my friends!
Swarm for 2026
I was a devoted Swarm user back in the good ol’ days, and Zest has reawakened that same enthusiasm! I love being able to effortlessly keep track of the places my friends and I go out to eat, without needing to share my location in yet another app.
Zest is also gorgeously designed and easy to use - I’ve been enjoying just cruising around the map and discovering new spots in my city. Check it out and find your next great meal!

Regular vs. adventure: Zest is the one
I travel a lot for work, and I’ve always found exhaustive recommendation lists exhausting, and, inexcusably unusable. Discovering Zest changed how everything for me. It changed how I approach adventures. Every single time I arrive in a new city, I trust what Zest tells me, and how it guides me! I have always loved being a regular at places, and Zest helps me become a regular at the places that it knows are going to matter to me, no matter where I am. I love Zest. Thank you for this one Zest team!

Exceptional App!
This app has so much to offer. I can rely on it every time I’m in a new location and don’t know where to eat, would highly recommend this to anyone!
best app for finding great restaurants
I’ve been using zest when traveling and at home and it always finds me amazing places! all my friends think I’m so trendy but it just gets me es more than gmaps or yelp or whatever
Fun way to explore my city and travel!
I absolutely love love love this app. It’s been an amazing way to find new places to eat and drink around town and when visiting friends in other cities!!! Love not having to log in every place I go individually! Takes all the busywork out of leaving a review!
Best Restaurant Discovery app
Tried different ways of discovering great restaurants around but always ended up in disappointment.
Zest maps really nailed what works for me.
