Beli is a social-first restaurant-discovery app that lets you see where your friends and fellow savvy diners are eating and recommending.

What we love: No star-ratings here. After you eat at a restaurant, Beli asks you to compare it to others you’ve dined at. The more you review, the more personalized your recommendations get.

Quick tip: Leave detailed notes on every visit. Tag who you dined with, save your favorite dishes, and add photos and labels for easy searching.

Meet the creator: The app started as a chaotic map of restaurant pins saved by CEO Judy Thelen and her husband and Beli’s cofounder, Eliot Frost. “Every foodie we met was keeping their own lists, but there was no centralized place to bring them together,” Thelen says. Today Beli counts more than 80 million ratings worldwide.
