It’s been only a couple weeks since our launch, and we already have some cool data to share. Here are the top five most popular places (rated by number of people who bookmarked them):
- Babbo
- The Odeon
- Republic
- BXL Cafe
- East Side Company Bar
You can bookmark the restaurants and bars by clicking the heart 
next to a business. Use this to keep track of where you go, where you’d like to go, and share your bookmarks with your friends. Here’s mine.
We’ll periodically revisit this kind of data to keep our eyes on the up-and-coming and down-and-out places to go in NYC. More users are hopping onto the service, and this information is really starting to get interesting.

We appreciate all the positive feedback we’ve received from users who have found out about us through local media. Here are some user comments we received this week:
- “It’s a service I personally need.”
- “Am loving the application…”
- “I just moved to Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn and read about Outalot.com on Thrillist so it’s definitely something that I will start using since I don’t really know the area yet.”
- “It’s better than Yelp.”
We are grateful to users who tag, comment, and rate local businesses, and send us updates about what’s happening in their neighborhood like restaurant openings and closings. We want to provide the highest quality data possible and your support helps us do this. Please keep it coming!
