What hood is for
Four things, all of them local.
Not a directory of the whole city. Everything here is inside one neighbourhood — close enough that the person cooking your dinner or fixing your fan lives a few streets away.
🍛
Eat what the street is cooking
Browse the home kitchens around you, see tonight's menu, and order. Cakes for a birthday, a week of lunch dabbas, biryani on Sunday.
- Real menus & prices
- FSSAI badge where held
- Track the delivery

Why the reviews mean something
A rating from your own street beats a rating from the internet.
Every business on hood shows you two numbers: what everyone thinks, and what the people near you think. They are often not the same number.
-
✓
Real people, named
Every reviewer verifies their mobile number and their name sits beside what they wrote. One review each — no pile-ons.
-
✓
Your neighbours come first
Reviews from inside your 2 km are shown at the top, with their street, before the crowd average.
-
✓
Your number stays private
Found someone? Message them in the app. Neither of you sees the other's number, and hood takes no cut.

No forms, no subscription, no card.

STEP 02
We find your hood

STEP 03
Order, book or ask
Dinner tonight, a plumber tomorrow, a tutor for next term. Or post what you need and wait.
