Restaurant shortlist picker

How it works

  1. Add your restaurant names, then apply the list. The sample entries are fictional.
  2. Use Status to track visited places and edit cuisine or preference details. Settings holds filters.
  3. Pick a place. Mark it visited only when you choose to, and Undo changes if needed.

How restaurant preferences work

Every eligible place has one chance by default. Enable preference weights in Settings to use each place’s weight from 1 to 10. A weight of 2 gets twice the chance of a weight of 1. Visited places can be excluded.

Your inputs stay with you

Your entries, settings and results are processed in this browser and are not sent to our server. Clearing browser data removes saved drafts and results. Export a text file if you want to keep a copy. Hosting may record standard page-request logs.

Does this find restaurants near me?

No. This tool chooses from names you supply. It does not check location, hours, prices, reservations or dietary suitability. Add places you already consider viable.
