Foodio54 is a new restaurant review site

Foodio54 is a new restaurant review site that has recently launched.

The main purpose of Foodio54 is to find new restaurants on a local level, and review the ones you’ve already been to. Foodio54 has already included a large directory of restaurants nationwide, so you’re likely to find what you’re looking for. If you come across a restaurant you’ve already been to, you can leave a review and a rating. For restaurants you may be interested in, you can set a reminder for Foodio54 to get back to you about it later. This directory can also be edited by the community, so if you find a restaurant that should be deleted because it went out of business, you can submit a deletion request. If a restaurant is not included in Foodio54’s directory, you can be the first to add it.

While you can befriend other users, you cannot subscribe to their reviews. One of Foodio54’s features is the tracking of all the places you’ve reviewed first, which allows users to build some authority and credibility within the site, making it more important to be able to bookmark or subscribe to other users. I’d also like to see the ability to include photos with a review, as well as create a permanent list of places I’d like to check out, such as Menuism has done. Relying less on friends’ reviews and incorporating a personal recommendation system, as Group Recipes has done, would be great as well.
