**Review: Timeleft Dinner with Strangers**

I recently had a unique dining experience thanks to an app called "Timeleft," which sets up dinner with five random strangers at a random restaurant. I stumbled upon this intriguing concept while scrolling through Instagram and decided to give it a try, even though it meant driving an hour into Manhattan.

The app pairs you with like-minded individuals based on a series of questions about music preferences, horoscope signs, religion, and other interests. I was a bit skeptical at first, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well the pairing worked.

From the moment we sat down, the conversation flowed naturally. We didn't even need to use the app-provided ice breakers because everyone seemed genuinely interested in getting to know each other. The mix of personalities and backgrounds made for a dynamic and engaging evening.

The atmosphere was lively, and it felt like dining with old friends rather than complete strangers. Each person brought something unique to the table, leading to a variety of fascinating discussions.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with Timeleft and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to meet new people and enjoy a memorable meal. It’s a fantastic way to step out of your comfort zone and connect with others in a meaningful way.

They tell you the morning of your dinner (Wednesday a workday) that they have scheduled you for a dinner that is 1 hour away from where I live. In Paris, the only question they ask you regarding location is Rive Droite or Rive Gauche. Instead, they should ask what Arrondissement you’re in and organize some thing that makes more sense. They literally organized a dinner on the polar opposite side of the city having to travel 1 hour back to my home after dinner or drinks is too late when I have to work the next day, not to mention certain metro lines make me uncomfortable after a certain hour. The support is really slow. I messaged them on WhatsApp during the hours they say they work. No one really answers. Email takes at least a day so if you find out the place, you are having dinner and you have a question that same day forget it you will never get help. The phone number they provide no one answers, they just tell you to message them. If you find out, the restaurant is too far away and you cancel they say they will not tolerate more than two of those in a month you’re supposed to cancel on Monday, but you don’t find out the restaurant is one hour away until the morning of the dinner. Asking peoples astrological sign is bizarre. The idea is good, but they should do things in a way that makes more sense and they should also provide more support that is responsive in a timely fashion, especially the day of the dinner. Disappointing.

Had a great time meeting some incredible people and really cool concept especially in a transient city like Vegas. My only 2 gripes is that the bar that all the groups go to was not being updated and suggested when I went to my Timeleft app, but that was probably a one time bug. However, a true gripe is the paying situation for the bill at the restaurant. The restaurant I got assigned too did not have the option to split it evenly which was a little weird especially for this specific concept. If you are going to gather a bunch of random people and meet each other for the first time and you have to share a bill and hoping everyone did their math right that is very nerve racking especially when you are the person having to pay the bill as the volunteer. An easy fix to that is for Timeleft to vet the restaurant out to see if it’s even possible to split the bill with the amount of people that they are reserving a spot for at that restaurant. Anyways that’s my only gripe, but I can’t stress this enough it was truly great to meet new and old locals in vegas a very much transient city.
