Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: JC's Pizza at none against RibCrib's shown. JC's Pizza also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (100% vs 76%). RibCrib's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 45) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
