NOMNOMGUIDE - the offical booking helper for NYC and Philadelphia restaurants

Finding great restaurants in a new city can be challenging, and securing a reservation can be even harder. Created by a foodie for fellow foodies, NomNomGuide offers booking statistics on a curated list of highly rated restaurants that will help you determine the best day to book a reservation for maximal chance of securing a table.

For each restaurant, NomNomGuide calculates

• average daily number of bookings
• monthly booking counts
• on average, how many days in advance people make reservations
• days of week on which most bookings are made

Booking data is scraped on a daily basis from Google Reservations, using Python Selenium.
