1. I love what you were trying to do.This is my go-to app when I travel so that I can find black owned restaurants in whatever city I am in.
2. I won't berate your app, but you do need to be aware.I have struggled to find a resource for black owned businesses in my community, so this app was an incredible find!I have had this app for over a year but recently it got way better as more dining choices have been added.
3. Now that that is almost over it is still needed to bring forth black owned restaurants and food industry businesses that you would never find anywhere else.
4. Seeing food options are great, but not useful without a menu, a hyperlink to the different websites, something more than what it offers.
5. Thank you 😊A friend of mine came from out of town, we went to the restaurant she chose and it closed during covid and never reopened.
6. Cool conceptthe only criticism I have for this app is that I wish I could bookmark/like/star restaurants i want to visit.
7. I found a place in Hyde Park that has some of the best fried chicken, Lucy's, and it was off the main path so I never would have found it without the app.
8. I still appreciate this app as it is the only option for finding black own restaurants that I know of.
9. Looking forward to them getting info for other states and helping us foodies with more adventures all over.
10. Love that I can set it for another city as I travel often...well used to before the Rona.
11. It doesn't give you a map to show the closest, or a distance you're willing to travel.
