The short answer
Restaurant Roulette spins a wheel of open restaurants near you that match a craving and price range. I Don't Care is the most similar alternative. If the problem is that you don't know what you're craving, FeedMii picks the dish first with a wheel or swipe cards and then lists nearby places that serve it. For couples and groups, Food Flip (head-to-head) and tastemate (everyone swipes until you match) are good options. Dining Decider shows one suggestion at a time, and Spin The Wheel lets you spin your own list.
Disclosure: FeedMii publishes this page. Ratings and prices are from the US App Store on October 27, 2026 and may change.

Frequently asked questions
What is an alternative to Restaurant Roulette?
I Don't Care works the same way: search a craving, spin a wheel of nearby restaurants. FeedMii is an alternative when you don't know what you want: it spins dishes and then finds nearby places that serve the winner.
Is there a restaurant roulette for groups?
tastemate and Food Swipe let everyone swipe on nearby restaurants from their own phone until the group matches. Food Flip works well for two people.
