Frequently Asked Questions

Please first read How It Works as it helps answer
a decent amount of the questions we receive.

How do you form these social dinner groups?
Chevron

We review every quiz and reservation request, and based on a blend of complimentary traits and common interests, we curate groups that look to have a good dynamic based on these high level, introductory questions.

Please remember we cannot guarantee the exact types of people and personalities of each dinner group, and that this is an evolving social dining experiment to simply bring people together over food. Please don't be shy about providing feedback and thoughts after the meal!

How do you select restaurants?
Chevron

We choose restaurants based on a combination of factors to do our best to provide a great experience. Each has a Google Review of at least 4.0 and a quality group ambiance. We've eaten at all the restaurants we select and work to select spots that have a variety of food options as well.

Restaurants we pick serve all sorts of global cuisines. If you are not an open-minded eater and don't like the idea of having a restaurant selected for you and your group, Well Fed is not for you.

We intentionally support local restaurants producing great food and are not partnered with any of them. We do not collect separate payments or commissions from the restaurants.

Where will the restaurant be located?

I have dietary restrictions - how does that impact my experience?
Chevron

We do our best to select restaurants that can accommodate various dietary requirements. We cannot promise restaurants that provide gluten-free or lactose-free options, but hopefully we’re able to do a better job as we grow.

You are welcome to also note in the “additional comments” of your quiz if you have specific needs that normal restaurants can’t normally meet. We can consider doing a personalized dinner for likeminded diets at a restaurant once we have enough people with these needs.

How much is a seat reservation?
Chevron

In Mexico City, reserving a seat costs 200 pesos. In Vancouver, reserving a seat costs 15 CAD. This helps cover the costs of this social dining experiment and also allows us to save a portion to work on more ambitious social ideas we're excited about. We've also learned that payment makes guests accountable and reduces the chance of people not attending.

How much is dinner? How does the bill work?
Chevron

In Mexico City, Well Fed selects restaurants with prices between the $$ to $$$ price range, which is approximately 400 to 800 pesos per person not including drinks.

In Vancouver, Well Fed selects restaurants with prices between the $$ to $$$ price range, which is approximately $30 to $50 CAD per person not including drinks.

Please remember that Well Fed organizes but does not attend the dinner. This is a separate cost from the seat reservation. The group handles the bill with each person paying for their order as a part of one bill as typically is done at a restaurant. Please be a respectful adult when ordering and paying and bring small bills to help with splitting as required.
