It is elegantly designed and very simplistic in terms of what it displays to the visitor. Finding restaurants can be quite tedious however, unless you know the name of the restaurant you are looking for. You cannot browse by cuisine, for example, or find restaurants in a certain price range. Worst of all, you can’t see restaurants by area or location. Although I understand the minimalist approach the site owners are trying to take, it’s almost a bit too minimalist to be all that useful. There is no way of booking a table and there is no rewards scheme, like the one offered at rival site Menupages.ie. The nail in the coffin for me is that the site only lists Dublin restaurants.
