MenuScout

MenuScout helps people with dietary needs and picky preferences quickly find safe, satisfying meals at real restaurants. Users pick constraints (allergies, low-FODMAP, low-sodium, halal/kosher, diabetes-friendly, budget) and the app ranks nearby restaurants by “orderability,” not just ratings. It focuses on what you can actually eat: specific dishes, likely modifications, cross-contamination notes, and staff-confirmation prompts you can show a server. It combines structured menu parsing with community verification (photo of menu, receipt, and what modifications were accepted). The app is realistic about uncertainty: it labels items as Confirmed, Likely, or Risky and explains why. This is not another generic restaurant review app; it’s a decision tool for people who waste time scanning menus and still end up stuck with a sad side salad.
