## Review summary

Across reviews, the main positives are UrbanSpoon’s original slot-machine/random restaurant finder, and its simple, travel-friendly discovery with a preferred rating system. The dominant complaints describe a ruined app: it now redirects to Zomato or is non-functional, with calls to remove it from the App Store. Other recurring concerns include missing features (spinner/wheel, filters) and outdated content. Overall, users want the original UX restored or the app removed entirely.

### Cons
