about social foodie

Taste you
can follow.

Social Foodie is a restaurant discovery app built around the food creators you already trust. We hand-curate restaurant coverage from tastemakers across all social media platforms, turn it into one consistent verdict per place, and pin it all to the map — so the food you find online is food you can actually go eat tonight.

what we do

Curated taste, not
anonymous noise.

Yelp and Google pile up reviews from strangers. We do the opposite — a small editorial team hand-curates and editorializes the takes of food creators with a genuine point of view, then organizes it all into one place you can search, save, and map.

Hand-curated, not scraped

Our editorial team watches and reads restaurant coverage from food creators across all social media platforms — then distills each take into a clear, consistent verdict. No anonymous crowd, no star-spam, just tastemakers whose palate you can actually follow.

Editorialized into one verdict

Every creator scores differently — some rate out of ten, some just gush, some quietly never go back. We translate all of it into one honest NOPE-to-ELITE label per place, so you can compare picks across creators at a single glance.

Mapped for real life

Every pick is pinned to a real place on the map. Browse what's hot near you, search by city and cuisine, and save spots to your list — so the food you find online is food you can actually go eat tonight.

Social Foodie is an independent editorial publication and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by the creators, restaurants, or brands it features. Our verdicts and summaries are our own editorial interpretation of publicly available content. See our Terms of Service for details.

our rating system

A rating system
we built ourselves.

Influencers rarely agree on how to score a meal — some rate out of ten, some just rave, some quietly never mention a place again. So we built our own system that reads the whole review, not just the number. It weighs several factors together to land on one honest verdict for each restaurant and each dish.

NOPE
MEH
MID
SNACK
BANGER
ELITE
Explicit ratings

When a tastemaker gives a clear score — 9 out of 10, a perfect rating, a hard pass — we start there. Their stated verdict is the strongest signal we have.

Perceived sentiment

Most reviews never land on a number. So we read the whole take — the tone, the enthusiasm, the hesitation — and weigh the sentiment behind the words to understand how a creator really felt.

Dish-level detail

A place can nail one dish and fumble the next. We weigh sentiment dish by dish, not just restaurant-wide, so a standout plate gets its due even when the rest is just fine.

Blended across creators

When several tastemakers cover the same restaurant, we blend their verdicts into one combined score — so a place's rating reflects the people who actually ate there, not a single loud opinion.

HEADS UP
We get it right most of the time — but not always.

Interpreting someone's taste from a video or a caption is hard, and our read of a creator's verdict isn't always 100% accurate. If a rating or a dish looks off to you, tell us — you can report inaccurate information right from the app, and a real person reviews every report.

eat it in real life

From your feed
to your table.

A great recommendation is useless if you can't find the place. Every pick on Social Foodie is mapped to a real restaurant, so you can see what's hot near you, search by city and cuisine, save spots to your list, and turn a scroll into an actual reservation.
