Flavortown
Reviews and Complaints

App removed from my phone.

There are so many other ways to make money on the iOS platform. Charging for an app and then displaying unrelated adds is a VERY bad idea.

I wouldn't be complaining / rating poorly if one of the screen shots showed an ad.

I feel cheated.

Tried searching for locations in Annapolis, MD. Search returned error 500, even though the listing by state did show several locations in Annapolis. App is recommended by the Flavortown web site, notwithstanding the disclaimer. Would be nice if they fixed their search bugs.

I love watching triple-D and I had been compiling a list of Austin TX resteraunts for an upcoming buisness trip when I stumbled upon this nice app. The only thing I would change or add is find things based on my gps location.- don't know zip codes for more than like 2 cities.

Love the idea of this app and it worked great for me. I would give you a 5 if you actually put what Guy ate during his visit to the restaurants in the description. After all, isnt that why we visit these places? I watch a lot of DDD but can't remember the specialty items of each joint.

We need a search feature by restaurant name or City name, not just zip. I'd like to be able to search for a restaurant featured on triple "D" for example but never caught the city name & only know the restaurant name. Right now the Zip Code results (for zip codes that U actually know) are pretty thin.

this latest version keeps crashing. ver 2.4
lastversion i had was working fine.

only way to make it work is to re-instal...but then it works 1 time only.
i really prefer not to have to re-install every time i want to use it.

have also tried toggeling location services off and on and makes no difference

I like the idea and despite the host I like the show, but it seems like the app only works if you know a zipcode of a featured restaurant.

I would think showing (a) restaurant(s) "x" amount of miles from a particular location would be a pretty standard feature.

Without that capability, the app is all but useless.

Hunk of junk. I want my money back. If you live near cleveland ohio, or Detroit Michigan. It may be useful. But. If you do live there and like this kind of thing you already know the places. I was led to believe I was buying an app with a database of places across the nation. This is not the case. Pure scam.

I like this app b/c when I’m traveling, it shows all the locations closest to me, you can also search by state & click on map. The app is pretty basic, and there’s a slow delay when clicking on a restaurant, But the mapping feature is key here. I look at menus & photos elsewhere. Updated with the most recent episodes as of August 2022.

Used the map link to go to Pirogi Mountain. Got there and no longer at that address. There is no link to their website on The Flavortown App. Had we gone to the website via another means, we would have gotten the correct address.

Overall ok app to find DDD names but the app should be up to date, especially an app that’s not free!

Got contacted by support and with their help got app working. It appears that if there
is nothing near your location, nothing shows up on the screen. They said they will take
care of that. So if you do a search near your location and nothing comes up, expand
your search area. Will be taking road trip soon to check out some good food.

While the latest version finally has the ability to search for restaurants by location, the listings still give you nothing more than the contact information. This app could be so much more useful by adding a list of the recipes covered in the episode (with pictures), as well as the actual recipes themselves. I would pay for this app if it added these features!

When I first got this app I could use my current location and it would find all DDD restaurants nearest me, no matter that I live 2 hours away from one, or I could browse the map. Now I let it use my location and it finds nothing. I have to know what city to search now before I can get any results. This is a wildly unhelpful update. Change it back and I'll change my rating.

This app only list restaurants and not much more. Could be more detailed and list menus & current updates. I have been to a lot of triple d joints and some have hit it out the park and some have struck out. It would be nice if one could get a sense of how things are going at restaurant before committing to it. In this case, they charge for the app. What are we paying for? Could get this info for free? Time to step it up flavor town.

Firstly, I'm surprised by the volume of low ratings for a free app! This app provides some valuable information including:

1. TripleD list from current location, by distance
2. Name, address & phone number of restaurant

With this data, you're aware of what's around and you can easily Google, Yelp or Bing for more background info.

As a TripleD fan and frequent traveler, this app has enabled me to enjoy many great dining experiences.

The app is built on an awesome premise. But unfortunately it cones up very short. Searching by zip code only. Never seen that weak in an iPhone app. Once you find a restaurant, you ser the address and that's really it. I'd love to see so much more. There was a show about this restaurant and you cant even tell me what the dishes were that were featured on the show? Nice try, but it needs a major overhaul to be worth anything. And I'd gladly pay a small price if these were all fixed.

This is a great app that does exactly what it says to do. I would be even more useful if you can search on city or restaurant name. But you can come a far way to search on zipcode because it shows also restaurants in a wider range. Don't know a zipcode? Get the simple and free app ZIPcodes. Enter a city name a voila a zipcode to use in this App. Thanks for putting out this app for free. I am sure it will come in very useful on our next vacation to find a good restaurant option near us.

This application could be an extremely helpful and useful tool. However, it lacks highly in the search function. Agreeing with several previous reviews, this app needs do be able to search to more than just a zip code. In all honesty and in my experience, most travelers don't keep up with the zip codes in which they pass through. It would be beneficial to have a map of the US, in which you can pick a state, and all the Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives for the state are listed. I have also found, that when I search by "current" location and/or zip and there are no Triple Ds in the area, it shows as an error. It would be helpful, that the closest Triple Ds would be listed, no matter the distance. If the search engine were more sophisticated, the Guy Fieri fan club members could plan weekend getaways based on the Triple Ds. Looking forward to upcoming versions!

Loved it at first, but error msg and nothing past few months. Don't bother getting! Zero stars

Awful this was like stealing. Nothing to do with the show at all. Waste of time just like the fool who made this app

App no longer works. Was fine before but now just shuts down when you try to open it. :-( was great while it lasted.

I love, love, LOVE triple D! The app is a completely useless thing. You can't search or anything... Sooooooo not worth it!

This app is garbage... Get on safari and google, you're better off. Too bad I read the reviews AFTER purchasing. I deleted this "crap app".

Love the show, hate the app. Error message when trying to retrieve additional information about the locations. The website is free and offers better info.

Bought this app two weeks ago. It worked once, then wouldn't allow new locations. Not happy with this app for 1.99. Don't waste your money, just use google

I like that I can locate Triple D places by location, BUT there is no way to map-- just gives mileage. also really needs to link to restaurant forenu/ hours etc

If you are downloading this thinking that it is connected to the TV show and provides reviews - think again and do not download. Just another random list of restaurants...

Repeats the same listings no matter zip codes you enter. Misrepresents DDD because it does not list all the places Guy has been to. Wasted my money buying and gifting to a friend.

App doesn't work. I have downloaded two times, restarted, etc and I get an error each time it comes up. Junk, you can find all of this on the web which is what I had to end up doing.

Horrible app makes u login to Facebook and wants you to put a code but fb doesn’t give you a code. Also when the restaurant pulls up in app and you go to the restaurants website it pulls up random trash web pages.

Love Guy and his show. Thought this would be a cool app, but it's not. Its good for telling you what's around you, but you can't get a description of the place unless there is a video. Most places don't have videos. So, kind of useless.

I, too was excited about this ap. I work for an airline and was looking forward to finding DDDs all over the country. But it kicks you out as soon as you try to use it.
Wish the Food network would launch an ap for DDD! I would happily pay for it.

Moviephon has it right. GPS maps, info about what u are looking up. Type of food would be good and directions.
We love Guy and triple D and watch all he does so please fix this app so we can use our iPhone for all they are worth and travel to great food!

You need to sell this to Guy Fieri. There’s so little here other than just a report. I need more like hours & menus OR IF THE PLACE STILL EXISTS! Not a lot going on with this app. Many of the places listed are gone with little to no mention in the app.

Lame. Liked the app for when I travel. Now doesn’t work.
