Did I try that yet?

DITTY remembers every dish you’ve tried, and whether you’d order it again. Rate the food, not the décor.

Be first to know when DITTY launches. We’ll only email you about DITTY.

The DITTY difference

Other apps review the restaurant. DITTY reviews the dish.

Most review platforms focus on the atmosphere, the service, and the parking. We care about the most important question: what does the food taste like?

A typical review
★★★★★  Bella’s Bistro
“Beautiful patio and our server Kyle was so sweet! Parking was a little tight. The vibe is perfect for date night. Food was good.”

So… what should you actually order?

Caesar Salad★★★★★Skip it Bottled dressing. Pass.
Tiramisu★★★★★Light and not too sweet. Split it.

“Yelp may help you find the cleanest steakhouse in town, but DITTY is going to help you find the best steak!”

FAQ

Questions? We’ve got answers.

What is DITTY?

DITTY (short for “Did I Try That Yet?”) is a food diary in your pocket. It remembers every dish you’ve tried and whether you’d order it again. Rate dishes, leave yourself a note, and always remember what you ordered.

How is DITTY different from Yelp or Google reviews?

Most review sites rate the restaurant: the atmosphere, the service, the parking. DITTY reviews the dish. Dish reviews tell you whether the pad thai is worth ordering, not whether the patio is nice.

When can I download DITTY?

Not quite yet. DITTY is still in development. Join the waitlist and we’ll email you as soon as it’s ready.

I run a restaurant. Is DITTY for me?

We hope so! We’re planning dish-level feedback from real diners, so you know exactly what to keep, tweak, or retire on your menu. Email us at info@dittyapp.com and let’s talk.

How can I help?
