What does this web site do?
This web site was designed to help you find restaurants near you.
When you open this site, it may ask permission to use location services on your phone or computer. The site needs locations services to know where you're located, so it can find restaurants near you.
Location services must be enabled for BOTH your phone (or computer) and for your web browser (Safari on iPhone, probably Chrome on Android).
If you need to find restaurants in a location not near you, for example in another city or state, try Adam's Restaurant Bot. This other web site hosts a chat bot, which you can interact with to find restaurants by city, zip code or nearby address.
