<Melissa's Dining Database>

Welcome! Since I'm usually the first person my friends text for a restaurant recommendation, I've finally centralized my dining history here to save us both the back-and-forth.

Consider this the comprehensive archive of where I've dined: the good, the "meh", and the "never again." If a restaurant isn't listed, I likely haven't been there yet or it simply didn't stick in my memory. If it is listed, check my notes before you book.

 

A Few Ground Rules:

  • The Vibe Check: This is a log of my personal experiences, not a curated service. Please cross-reference with your own "vibes" and dietary needs!

  • The Disclaimer: I'm happy to share the data, but I can't be held responsible for your service, your seating, or a dish that didn't hit the mark for you.

  • Self-Serve Analytics: To make things even easier, I've created a data visualization of my dining history below. You can filter by my ratings to find the real winners and avoid the ones I wouldn't go back to.

 

I'm always hunting for my next favorite meal, so send your best recommendations my way. Otherwise, enjoy the data and happy dining!
