Verdict

The call

Restaurant Roulette!! and Spin & Dine both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Spin & Dine's written reviews are positive against 36% of Restaurant Roulette!!'s. Spin & Dine also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). Restaurant Roulette!!'s advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 6) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
