From “What did I order?” to a confident choice.

PastPlate turns each restaurant visit into a useful personal record—not a public review and not just another star rating.

Keep the latest recommendation and best experience clear

PastPlate separates what happened most recently from the version you rated highest, so one experiment does not erase a favorite.

Common questions

Built for personal decisions, not public reviews.

Is PastPlate a restaurant review app?

No. PastPlate records your own experiences so you can make a better choice the next time you visit. Your notes are not posted as public reviews.

What happens when my opinion of a dish changes?

Your latest Order Again or Skip decision becomes the current recommendation. PastPlate also preserves the best rating and every earlier experience.

Can I repeat an older customization instead of the latest one?

Yes. Open the dish history and choose Order This Version from the experience you want to repeat.

Does PastPlate guarantee that a dish is allergy-safe?

No. Ingredients, recipes, and preparation can change. PastPlate stores your notes, but you should always confirm current information directly with the restaurant.
