Timeleft Arvostelua 713

I had a really positive experience at the Timeleft dinner. The group was a mix of people from different backgrounds who had moved to Baltimore, and the conversation flowed easily around travel, books, and podcasts. Three attendees seemed especially in sync, likely because they had already participated in Timeleft before, while for two or three others it was their first time.

Overall, everyone was friendly, polite, and open, and the discussion even touched briefly on politics. It was interesting to see how different perspectives played out in the group dynamic. Personally, I didn’t feel like I made a deep connection that would carry over outside of the dinner, but I still really enjoyed meeting such a thoughtful and diverse set of people.

The restaurant itself was fantastic—the food was so good that I went back later that day. That alone made the evening worthwhile! If I had one suggestion, it would be to offer an earlier dinner option, maybe around 5:30 or 6:00, since 7:00 p.m. felt a bit late, especially factoring in rush hour traffic.

All in all, this was a great experience that got me out socializing in a fun, relaxed way. Even if this group wasn’t “my people,” it was absolutely worth it, and I’m excited to try again and hopefully meet others I click with.

I had my account banned after 10 dinners (all of which were fantastic). I’m fairly confident this was a misstep on Timeleft’s end as I abide by the rules and really enjoyed the format.

I have reached out to customer service 5 times and not a single reply. My last two tickets were closed without any reply. I intended on being a longtime patron but if I can’t even use the service, not sure what to do.

Maybe as Timeleft reads this they can give me an email and assurance someone will look into my issue.

I’ve found Timeleft to be a very fulfilling experience! Wonderful dinners with a chance to meet new people. A unique idea ten times better than on line meets!

I’ve found making friends as an adult much tougher than as a kid! When you’re young, you’re surrounded by your peers all day, and finding friends is fairly easy. I’m mid-60s and fairly introverted, but I still want to connect with people. When I found TimeLeft, I loved the concept right away, and decided to give it a shot. I’ve been to 2 dinners this month, and both were a lot of fun! I’ve met 11 people so far, had a chance to try a couple of restaurants I hadn’t been to before (both really good!), and I’m having dinner this weekend with someone I clicked with (platonically).
I’ve decided I’ll continue to participate a couple of times a month, and I’ve lowered my dinner price range to one $, because I can’t afford to eat out ‘nice’ every week, but it’s a super idea. (Terrible name but great concept! 😁)

Application mal fichue.
L’adresse du restaurant n’est connue que 24h à l’avance.
Dans mon cas 1h de transport en commun ! On peut annuler dans pénalité 48h à l’avance !
Quand on s’inscrit à une activité…on a plus accès aux autres 🤷🏻‍♀️

Only downside so far is that I've ate in the same restaurant twice. I hope that next time the restaurant will be different (Copenhagen).

Two occasions I experienced time left. We were at establishments i had never visited before and truly enjoyed the meals.

Being grouped with folks a little bit older than me, I found the conversations were thorough and explorative and worthy of connection.

I watched a few clips on YouTube from participants around the world where the mistake has been made that romance may evolve, but I suppose it depends on your intentions.

I found all my connections to be mature adults that are happy to explore many topics from travel to education to books and one minor diversion from politics was necessary, but as an experience, I highly recommend it to everybody to try at least three times.

I’m of the opinion , that no one should eat alone and there is great value to sharing meals match with strangers conversation is inevitable, learning something new is absolutely guaranteed and experiencing a perspective on topics you could never consider from your own cultural bias is a form of freedom I highly recommend.

The first dinner was successful. The last drink was a venue that was closed.

The second successful time with dinner was followed with the last drink, and four of five participants joined in along with approximately 15 others from three other locations in our region.

A very good habit to have is “dinner 7 PM Wednesday discovering a new restaurant with new people”

Spike.

I was at a birthday dinner and asked a girl how she met my friend. The girl said from a Timeleft dinner! I had never heard of the app but I decided to give it a go. I have been to two dinners so far and plan to go to more in Melbourne. I really enjoyed the first two! Was lovely company! Would recommend if you want to meet people and try different restaurants.

Je suis conquise par ce concept ! Mes 2 expériences sur Paris ont été des réussites : de superbes découvertes humaines à chaque fois (des personnes de tout horizons et que je n'aurai jamais connu dans la vraie vie), mais aussi de belles découvertes de restaurants aussi. Le budget et les contraintes alimentaires ont été respectées pour ma part.
On a fait la fermeture du restaurant à chaque fois, ce qui est plutôt bon signe.
Une belle parenthèse en milieu de semaine !
Et après avoir rencontré plusieurs personnes "accro" au concept, je vais surement prendre un abonnement.

I arrived at my first Timeleft dinner, to discover I was guest #7 on a 6 person booking. The restaurant offered to squeeze me on the end of the table, but it looked a bit squashy, so I left. Not sure how you resolve this issue. Did someone bring a friend, or maybe they always overbook these events thinking someone will not turn up? I am looking at it as if I was not meant to have dinner with someone at that table and my fairy godmother did me a favour.

This is such a simple but brilliant concept. I've been to multiple dinners, occasionally meeting up to do it again. It's nice to meet other professional adults for dinner and conversation. Added plus of restaurants I wouldn't have otherwise tried. All around great experience.

What a fantastic evening! Everything was thoughtfully organized and the choice of restaurant couldn’t have been better — it had just the right atmosphere for meeting new people. The group was friendly, international and around the same age, which made conversations flow naturally. I highly recommend this app to anyone new in town and looking to connect — it’s a great way to break the ice and start building your social circle.

Overall fun experience.
I've done 2 dinners so far and it's a bit of a hit or miss. With one group it was just ok, with the other we all instantly clicked!

It's nice to have the "matching" system for the chats, as it allows to keep some control over who can contact you.

Both times were at the same restaurant (one week appart). In the feedback section of the app you get a chance to rate the restaurant which I assume determines if you are paired with the restaurant again in the future or not.

I think it could be nice if Timeleft could get "partner" restaurants that offer discounts / free drink/ desert for the meetups.

Another thing I think could be improved is that the meetups are based on a pairing algorithm based on a "personality questionnaire". However, as humans we are ever evolving creatures, and so far I have not found how to "retake" this questionnaire or check my answers to see if they still match who I am.

Participei de 2 encontros. De modo geral foram bons. No primeiro, a interação do grupo foi muito boa. Na segunda foi razoável. Mas, nem sempre vamos encontrar pessoas com afinidades muito bem sucedidas. De modo geral, ainda acho uma experiência válida. Mudei o nível do restaurante para o próximo para conhecer uma experiência diferente

It's really nice meeting new people and equally nice getting to know new restaurants. I had three experiences so far and each one was truly unique in their own way. If by misfortune you have a bad first experience, give it another chance, it's totally worth it.

Amazing people and a great place. I loved the whole experience even when I had my reservations. The way they chose the people is excellent. I identified with all the people who went to the dinner. I'm planning to go every time I can.

Timeleft have overbooked my table at tge restaurant and i was seated to another with age mismatch. Even on my supposed table, there were 5 guys and 2 girls. I raised a complaint and was answered by an AI robot.
Afterall, they fill the tables on first come, first in. There is no consideration to preferences, gender balance, just nothing. In addition, they keep everything secret until 24 hours before the event just to tie yoh in. What's so secret about it? I really do not recommend this app and there are many other way to hang out better than this one, should it be on facebook groups or other sites.

I had a great experience with Timeleft! The group was carefully selected and we hit it off immediately. I have already booked my second dinner. ☺️

Not knowing what to expect, I was pleasantly surprised to find the strangers at my table all have then potential to become good friends! The sign up process was easy, the directions were clear and the dinner spot chosen was perfect for my budget.

Really fun time with people, you never know who you gonna meet and what kind of connections will develop. Will do this once again for sure!
