Henry here form Foodnow. Thanks for the feedback and for sharing.
FoodNow is all about simplicity. Think Yo for Food Delivery. Get food with one tap.
There's no signups, no min deliveries, no price comparison, no long list of menus items, no searching - just the best meals nearby. Essentially, it removes the paradox of choice that makes GrubHub, Seamless overwhelming and confusing to use (ie, you have to browse through hundreds of restaurants, looking at reviews, ratings, etc before actually choosing something).
Give the app a spin and we'd love your feedback. We also plan on expanding to nationwide coverage very shortly.
Cheers,
Henry
@henrythe9ths great idea, would be nice if you indicated delivery availability on your website. fwiw probably better to disclose and collect emails for notification, vs. have people download and then delete, in terms of growth.

So this includes delivery charges and tip & tax? If the price is final it's great tool that really minimizes questions down the road... Too bad it's only for NYC
@vitaliy and @AlexSalkever
Thanks for the feedback and city requests. If FoodNow expanded to your city tomorrow, when and where would you see yourself most likely to use FoodNow? This will help us greatly to scale out our user experience to more than 1 city.
Thanks!
Henry
(ps, the price includes delivery, tip is optional and tax is not included)
Only available in New York City currently but the experience is very fast, w. dishes pre-selected at a set price and surfaced in the nearby area. I'm not sure if diners tend to be adventures w. their food options but I could see myself being a regular when I'm out of options for dinner and can't come up w. ideas.
Also reminds of me a very early hunt, GoDish (http://www.producthunt.com/posts...), which is available in SF. cc @ryanajon1

@daveambrose Nice find! Love this concept - tons of opportunity to reduce friction for consumers while creating efficiencies for restaurants. Taking the best of Sprig and Grubhub. Too bad I can't test it out in SF.

Now I know a lot of people who might want something like this. Just keep the food images coming and let people swipe through them all until they can find something that they like that fits their budget and cravings for the evening. Ordering food and deciding where to go for dinner has probably never been this randomly organized ever! Haha! I reckon that I would even have a go on this app myself if it came out!
