Well.now publishes general information about US restaurant menus, nutrition facts and menu prices. This disclaimer explains the limits of that information so you can use it sensibly. It works alongside our terms of use and privacy policy.
In short: we are not doctors or dietitians, restaurants change their food and prices, community posts are personal opinions, and we are not connected to any of the brands we list. Read on for the details.
Not medical or dietary advice
Nothing on Well.now is medical, nutritional or dietary advice, and it is not a substitute for advice from a doctor, registered dietitian or other qualified professional. Daily value percentages are based on a general 2,000 calorie diet and a 2,300 mg sodium limit, which may not match your needs. The calorie budget planner gives an estimate based on a standard formula and cannot account for your full health picture.
If you have diabetes, heart or kidney disease, high blood pressure, are pregnant, or follow a medically supervised diet, talk to your care team before relying on any numbers here.
Nutrition values can change
Verified nutrition facts match the official source named on each brand page as of the last-checked date. Restaurants regularly change recipes, suppliers and portion sizes, and individual locations can prepare food differently. Customizations, extra sauces and size changes will change the totals. Brands marked as estimates have not been fully verified and should be treated as rough guides.
Allergens and dietary restrictions
Well.now does not currently list allergens, and the absence of an allergen note does not mean an item is safe. Shared kitchen equipment and preparation areas can cause cross-contact. If you have a food allergy, intolerance or celiac disease, always check the restaurant's official allergen information and speak to staff before ordering.
Prices are not offers
Most chains let each location set its own prices. A price appears on Well.now only when an official source confirms it, and the data note names the store it applies to. Your local price, taxes, fees and delivery app prices may differ. Prices on Well.now are informational and are not an offer to sell.
Community content
Reviews, prices and tips on the community page are written by users and reflect their own opinions and experiences. We do not verify every post, and they do not represent the views of Well.now. Community ratings are averages of those posts and may be based on only a few reviews.
No affiliation with brands
Well.now is independent. We are not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by any restaurant or brand on the site. Names, logos and trademarks belong to their owners and are used only for identification. Links to restaurant websites and review platforms are provided for convenience.
Errors and corrections
Despite our checks, mistakes can happen. If you find an error, email be@well.now with the restaurant, the item and a link to the official source. We review every correction request and update the entry and its last-checked date when the source confirms the change.
- Name the restaurant and exact menu item
- Say which value is wrong
- Include a link to the official source
Calculator and planner results
The nutrition calculator adds together the values listed for each item you choose. If an item's data is an estimate or out of date, the total will be too. Daily value percentages use general US reference amounts and are meant for comparison, not as personal targets. Cost totals include only items with verified prices, so the real bill may be higher once taxes, tips, fees and unpriced items are added.
The calorie budget planner uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation and a standard activity multiplier. Results can be off for athletes, older adults, people with high or low muscle mass, and anyone with a medical condition that affects metabolism. Use it as a rough starting point and adjust based on professional guidance and how your body responds.
Blog and guide content
Articles and guides on Well.now explain menus, nutrition labels and ordering tips in plain language. They reflect our research at the time of writing and may not cover every situation, regional menu or limited-time item. Menu items mentioned in articles can be discontinued or changed. Where an article and a brand page disagree, the brand page with its source and last-checked date is the more reliable reference.
Examples in guides, such as suggested lighter orders, are illustrations rather than recommendations for any individual.
Outside links and services
We link to restaurant websites, official nutrition documents and review platforms so you can check information at the source. We do not control those sites and cannot guarantee their accuracy, availability or privacy practices. A link does not mean we endorse a site, its products or its opinions. Logos and preview images may be loaded from third-party services and could occasionally be missing or out of date.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use Well.now to manage a medical diet?
Use it as general information only, and follow the guidance of your doctor or registered dietitian.
Why might my order's nutrition differ?
Recipes, portions and customizations vary, and restaurants update their food over time.
Is Well.now paid by restaurants?
No. We are independent and not affiliated with any brand we list.
Why do some brands say estimate?
We label a brand as an estimate when we could not read complete nutrition facts from an official US source. Those numbers are rough guides until we verify and replace them, and the brand page always says which state the data is in.
Are cost totals in the calculator exact?
No. They include only items with verified prices for a named store. Your real bill can differ because of local pricing, sales tax, tips, delivery fees and items whose prices we could not confirm.
Who should I contact about an error?
Email be@well.now with the restaurant, the item, the value you think is wrong and a link to the official source. We check every report and update the entry when the source confirms it.
The takeaway
Treat Well.now as a helpful starting point, not a final word. Confirm allergens and prices with the restaurant, consult a professional about your diet, and tell us if you spot an error.
