Cool App

Great app for finding where to eat, love the “what’s good here” summaries

Good to use

Solid

Actually impressed

Zesty v2 is really, really good. Very impressed.

Biggest update for me is the list generation and how it feels tailored and personalized to me, vs a ranking of generic/popular spots.

I’ve been using it to plan date nights and my upcoming travels. Lovely all in one app.

Fun to use, great food recs 😋

I've enjoyed using Zesty so so much! It's been such an amazing way to find new places, and to either decide something spur-of-the-moment based on what I feel like, or to plan months in advance. I can basically just type out the exact vibe I'm craving — creative chocolate desserts, spanish tapas, a quick light bite, an authentic meal that will transport me straight to Georgia, etc. etc. — and Zesty never disappoints. I've been having such a blast discovering great new recs!

After updating, it’s much better!

The search is so much better in the latest version. It understands my personal preferences and it supports one question list creation!

Great and fun

A great app to find a place to go out. Can do lots of super specific finds too for things like “big party group on a Tuesday night” or “speakeasy date night in soho”. Lots of good info on each suggestion.

Amazing

Amazing

Not usable

I don’t see why anyone under the age of 30 would use this. Ai slop

Strikingly similar to Zest Maps but does the job.

I downloaded the app since I’m a frequent DoorDash user, but the app gave me Déjà vu… strikingly similar in appearance, function, and even in name to Zest Maps which has been around for some time. Maybe differentiate some more. Otherwise functioned okay.

Corny fake reviews

Clearly planted fake 5 star reviews all in a batch on Dec 15 🧐 what are we doing out here, DoorDash?

Add lists and ratings

This app is really useful and fun but aa needs to lock in and add lists and ratings

incorrect information

ai slop - not the good kind

Discovery without the hassle

Love this app. I didn’t realize how annoying it was to bounce between 3-4 apps/websites just to decide what’s good until Zesty. It makes discovery feel easy and actually enjoyable. Clean UI, genuinely useful, starting to become my go-to when deciding and planning where to go.

Cool

Coolest

Great UI, love the ai

Really solid UI to quickly see what’s around me.
Love that I can use the ai to search easily!

Food app made human

Zesty has honestly made deciding what to eat so much easier. Instead of endlessly scrolling or trying to force the right keywords, I can just type what I’m actually craving, like good dim sum nearby, matcha desserts, hand-pulled noodles, or bingsoo, and it somehow just gets it. As someone who really cares about product design, I appreciate how calm and intentional the experience feels. Nothing feels cluttered or pushy, and the recommendations feel thoughtful rather than generic. It genuinely feels made for people who love food and local spots and want discovery to feel effortless. Definitely keeping this on my home screen.

Magic discovery

I’ve lived in nyc for 25 years and this app is finding amazing places in my area I had no idea about before. Crazy.

Great app for finding restaurants

Zesty is super useful in finding great places to eat at. It aggregates a lot of information from Google Maps, Reddit, TikTok to find the best places to go to
