I am new to the area and I heard about this app on the BIN and I think it's awesome. Hopefully more restaurants will join.

It's great to find restaurants near you. However, you have to get a different app to order from these restaurants. Someone who is American and who wants to get in touch with their roots may have trouble trusting the restaurants provided since you have to go somewhere else to order. For me I'm just staring at these restaurants that I will probably never eat at because it is still not accessible.

This is an awesome app! I love to support small businesses, especially those that are local and black owned, and I've often thought I wish there were a way to find them on an app instead of searching through Google. The app is super user friendly and has a ton of features that are helpful!
