PlateRanks build manual-20261025-093515-gcloudsdk
Now open in Tampa Bay

We don’t just rate the restaurant.
We rate every plate.

PlateRanks goes past a single rating. Every dish gets its own score for taste, portion, presentation and how memorable it was, so you know the short rib is worth the drive and the salad isn’t worth the fork before you order.

Built to answer the question you actually have

You’re standing in front of a menu. Nothing on it is labeled. Here’s what PlateRanks puts in your hand.

Every dish scored on its own

Diners rate each dish on taste, portion, plating and how memorable it was, plus whether they'd order it again. Next to the restaurant's overall rating, you see exactly which plates earn it, and one bad dessert never hides a great entree.

A match built from your history

The more plates you rate, the better it reads your palate. You get a personal match on each dish, not a crowd average that ignores what you like.

Taste you can follow

In the PlateRanks app, follow the people whose picks keep landing. Their plates show up in your feed, so a recommendation comes from someone you chose, not a stranger.

Community built

The menus come from diners, and it only takes one of you

PlateRanks doesn’t wait on a restaurant to type up its own menu. If a place doesn’t have one yet, any diner can add it in the PlateRanks app by snapping a photo of the menu, uploading a screenshot, or dropping in a PDF. We read the dishes off it for you.

That upload happens once. After that the menu is there for every person who walks into that restaurant after you, and everyone can start rating plates on it, here or in the app. Add a menu and you’ve done the whole city a favor.

  • A photo, a screenshot, or a PDF. Upload it in the app. No typing dishes in one at a time.
  • One time, for everybody. Once it’s up it stays up, and the next diner just picks their plate and rates it.
  • Menus are what make reviews possible. You rate a specific dish, so the dish has to exist first. Here on the website, you can add the plates you had when you log a meal.
  • Menus change, so you can refresh one. If a menu looks stale, anyone can re-upload it in the app and bring it current.
  • Owners take it from there. When a restaurant claims its page it takes over its own menu, and the ratings you already left still count.

Be the first to add this menu

Menus on PlateRanks are added by the community and needed to enter reviews. Add it once from a photo or screenshot and it’s here for everyone.

How it works

Four steps, and the fourth one is what makes the first one better next time.

1

Find a place

Search nearby, or browse picks built around what you've rated well before.

2

See the plates

Open the menu and the dishes come pre-sorted, with the ones worth your money on top.

3

Rate what you ate

A few taps after the meal. Taste, portion, plating, and would you get it again.

4

Get sharper picks

Your rating sharpens the dish's score for everyone and tightens your own matches.

Why the scores hold up

A rating system is only worth as much as the things it refuses to do.

What the kitchen serves now counts most

A dish’s score is what diners actually gave it, and the newest reviews count the most. A dish that got better last month shows it, and you always see how many people rated it.

Restaurants can’t delete a review

An owner can claim their page and reply. They can’t edit or remove what somebody actually experienced, and emptying a menu doesn’t erase the ratings on it.

Money never buys rank

Anything sponsored is labeled as sponsored, every time. Paid placement can buy reach here. It doesn’t buy a better score.

You decide what’s public

Everyone sees your username. Restaurants you review see your full name. You choose whether friends see it and whether others can find you by it.

For restaurants

Find out which plates are carrying you

Your overall rating tells you how you’re doing. Your dish scores tell you why: the pasta is the reason people come back, and the dessert is the reason they skip it. Claim your restaurant and you’ll see both.

  • Every dish ranked, with the trend on each one
  • Take over your menu, and keep your dishes and photos current
  • Reply to reviews, and on a paid plan, reach a guest privately when a night goes wrong

The owner portal is open

Search for your restaurant and claim it. Then you can see how every plate is doing.
