Ratings and reviews

The idea of the app is good, but bad execution. I've matched with 2 people to go on a date with. When I got to the first location, they never made a reservation for us so I had to make one and hope that they had room. There was no way to speak with anyone (company or date). My dates never replied to any messages, and never showed up even though they confirmed for the date. so I think these profiles are either bots or abandoned profiles.

Very interesting take to online dating. Though I must admit it takes some getting used to, it is far more efficient than just endless messages that lead to nothing and go nowhere. Yes, there are still fake profiles, scammers that want to take you into other messaging apps e.g: WhatsApp, Telegram, Snapchat and more but as long as you know not to fall for it, you're good.

Wanted to like the app, but it's terribly coded. 2FA text codes don't send half the time and I can't actually upload my photos. Leaving 1 extra star for potential because I like the concept, but the app needs better execution. Update: latest update fixes the photo upload issue. Now the "submit" button for entering the 2FA code bounces back and forth, and photos won't load when looking through people's profiles.
