Gathers information from both Google and Yelp into a dashboard so that users can better evaluate inormation about restaurants.
-
Generates a recommended restaurant base on the radius of location, cuisine, that the user selects.
- Google Places API: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service/overview
- Yelp Fusion API: https://www.yelp.com/developers/documentation/v3/get_started
