Questions

Good to know

What is GoodFinds?

GoodFinds puts restaurant recommendations from chefs, food critics, food creators and publications on one map. Every pick says who made it, in their own words where they gave them, and nearly every one links to the interview, article or video it came from.

Who are the “people who’d know”?

Chefs talking about where they eat, critics and food writers, food creators, well-known guests on food shows, and guides such as the Michelin Guide, Time Out, The Infatuation, Tabelog and Eater. More than 750 people are named on GoodFinds so far, alongside 220+ guides, shows and creators.

Does GoodFinds write its own restaurant reviews?

No. We bring together recommendations from chefs, critics, creators and publications, with attribution and links to the original sources. Members can also share their own recommendations and rankings.

What does a restaurant’s score mean?

The app displays a combined score using its Google rating, any Michelin distinction and, when available, GoodFinds members’ rankings. This is separate from the individual recommendations shown for that restaurant.

Where do the picks come from?

From interviews, articles, videos and posts where someone recommended a place on the record. More than 99% of picks link back to that source, so you can read or watch the original.

Which cities does it cover?

These have 100 or more places each so far: London, Tokyo and New York, plus Amsterdam, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Lisbon, Los Angeles, Melbourne, Paris, Rome, San Francisco, Singapore, Sydney and Taipei. Coverage elsewhere is thinner: a few picks each in hundreds more cities and towns.

Can I save places I find on Instagram or TikTok?

Yes. In the app, share the post to GoodFinds, paste a link, or pick a screenshot. GoodFinds finds the places named in it, you confirm them, and they go on your map.

Is it free? Is there an Android app?

The app is free on the App Store, for iPhone with iOS 16.4 or later. There’s no Android app, but the map works in any browser at getgoodfinds.com/map, with no sign-up.

Don’t just see where to eat. See who recommends it, and why.
