Hi, some UI/Design feedback. Homepage:

* How can you not have a robot-eating-pizza logo! :)

* WAY too many different fonts and text styles. I count 12.

* Get some better/more appetising food photos

* The text boxes change size when selected, causing the layout to jump.

* Edit and cancel button icons jump 1px on hover.

* The cancel button has a text-selection cursor instead of a pointer

* The flat grey header doesn't really go with the wood panel effect.

* Wood panel bg repeats too soon with a visible join.

Results page:

* Overall very good, nice and clear

* The login pop-up needs proper styling

* I'd consider making the phone numbers always visible, rather than with the address expander. The first action if you're in a rush it to call a bunch of places to check reservations.

* The dollar signs to indicate price are a kinda ambiguous. How must is a $$$ meal compared to a $$$$ meal?

Thanks for the great feedback. Some thoughts/responses:

* Robot eating pizza logo - Great suggestion! Definitely need a good logo, and will consider this when reaching out to a graphic designer / 99 designs.

* WAY too many different fonts and text styles - Guilty as charged. Will fix this in future updates.

* Get some better/more appetising food photos - Believe it or not, these are actually improvements over past iterations. But I will keep my eyes open for something even more delicious (although if you have food images suggestions, I'm all ears..er...eyes..er, stomach?)

* The text boxes change size when selected, causing the layout to jump. - Noted. Will add to list of things to address.

* Edit and cancel button icons jump 1px on hover. - Should be fixed now

* The cancel button has a text-selection cursor instead of a pointer - Should be fixed now

* The flat grey header doesn't really go with the wood panel effect. - Noted

* Wood panel bg repeats too soon with a visible join. - Fixed the visible join

Results page: * The login pop-up needs proper styling - Noted

* I'd consider making the phone numbers always visible, rather than with the address expander. - Interesting point. I've also had requests to make the entire address visible too. I go back and forth between making more info visible immediately versus keeping the results cleans and simple and providing more info on a need-to-know basis. Sounds like you think phone # is more vital to expose earlier.

* The dollar signs to indicate price are a kinda ambiguous. How must is a $$$ meal compared to a $$$$ meal? - Yes I can make this clearer. The system is the same as Yelp's for restaurants, but I should add a legend calling this out more or somehow make this more obvious.

Thanks again for all the great feedback. Super helpful.
