Asian Recs MCP MCP server

This MCP server allows AI agents to search for restaurants, cafes, bars, and dessert shops in San Francisco and New York. It ranks venues based on ratings from Asian diners compared to the general public, providing details on what to order, review quotes, and rating gaps. The service is read-only and uses public data from Google and Yelp.

Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http asian-recs-mcp https://asianrecs.com/api/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add asian-recs-mcp --url https://asianrecs.com/api/mcp
