Simmer (formerly Foodie) has reviews for every dish on a restaurant’s menu. It's a dish decider for when you're at a restaurant. We use ML to algorithmically generate ratings. So far, we have 380k ratings at 5k San Fran, Manhattan, and Chicago restaurants.
This company is ridiculous, I paid for 1 set of meals which I never received. I was then automatically charged again the following week for the same amount. I contacted customer services and they said I could not get a refund, even though I had made a one off payment and not a subscription. My sister also had the same problem which I found out after I had made my first order. I still wasn’t able to cancel the company from charging me weekly so I had to call my bank to stop this. Would not recommend. Big waste of time
Hi P Vee, I believe your review is for Simmer Eats, a meal delivery company. Our app was Simmer (a review app), which shut down in 2020 and which I don't believe you're a customer for.
The simmer website is limited and not a pleasant experience to use. Twice my food was not delivered on the week that my payment was taken and I was sent incorrect meals every now and then.
The food is nice and the quality is high but the overall experience left a lot to be desired, and after joining on a promotional offering I am in the process of cancelling my subscription (cancelling is also very difficult to do)

Hi guys, Vaibhav from Foodie here! We are a team from the University of Chicago and have been working on Foodie since March 2018. We are really proud of our product and, so far, have fully launched in San Francisco (but we take restaurant requests from anywhere)!
If you have any questions or would like to reach out, I'm at vaibhav@thefoodieapp.com!
Hey PH,
Richard from Foodie here. I have never once gotten to the cash register and known what to order. Foodie helps me decide what to choose (like a nifty "dish decider"). Thanks for checking us out, and I hope Foodie can be useful for you, too! We have tons of restaurants in SF and Chicago, but NYC is coming soon.
A couple of pro tips:
- We have every boba spot in SF on the app -- do you agree with our rankings?
- Filter button on the menu page is criminally underused.
- Restaurant not on our app? "Tap to Request". Under the hood, we aggregate food reviews that mention dishes across the internet, from food delivery to personal blogs, and analyze them to rate dishes out of five stars.
We'd LOVE to get your feedback! I'm at richard@thefoodieapp.com
@morgannewman That's an awesome idea. I'll PM you if we ever cook up something like that on Foodie! We do have maps, but it's somewhat hidden in our app and has limited functionality.
