Stop arguing about where to eat. Tell Ziza who's coming and it picks restaurants the whole table should like. Everyone votes blind, then the group's picks are revealed. Friends who don't have Ziza vote from a link. No group-chat spiral, no "I'm fine with anything." The picks are accurate because Ziza knows your taste. A 30-second quiz to start, then one tap after each visit — Loved it. It was fine. Not for me. Every answer sharpens your personal match % for every restaurant. WHAT YOU GET • Plans: pick the people, get picks for the table, vote blind, decide. Ziza only suggests places open at your time. • Guests welcome: anyone can vote through a link, no account needed. • A personal match % on every restaurant, built around your taste instead of one giant leaderboard. • "With…": eating with friends right now? Rank For You for everyone at the table. • New to you or Loved before: explore somewhere new, or find a favorite worth a return. • Filters that mean something: open now or open at a time, vegan, vegetarian, halal meat options, price, distance, vibe. • Follow friends whose taste you trust. • Missing a restaurant? Request it in the app. • Irvine gets first bite. More cities coming soon. Free. No ads, no pay-to-rank, no sponsored spots.
