"Let's Go Baby began to quietly make restaurant-going with kids less of a logistical nightmare and more of a pleasure. Since launching, the platform has been used by 8,400 New York City families, all looking for the same thing: a place to eat where they won't feel like they've committed a social crime by showing up with a toddler."
"Of those 638 listings, 86 were submitted directly by users through the app's 'Add to Map' feature. That crowdsourced aspect matters in a city where conditions can change quickly and where 'kid-friendly' can mean wildly different things depending on your child's age, temperament or ability to sit still for more than six minutes."
"There's also something subtly radical in the idea that parents shouldn't have to lower their expectations. This isn't about finding the least stressful option; it's about finding good restaurants that also happen to work for real life with kids."
"For now, the growth of Let's Go Baby proves that dining out with children may still be a minefield that needs careful navigating, but parents aren't in it alone."
