• search_venues

  Search Dim Hour's restaurant, bar and venue catalog. Pass `city` to search one city, or OMIT `city` to search more than 20,000 venues across every city at once (e.g. 'best ramen anywhere', 'michelin spots'). Returns ranked matches with score (0-100 quality), price tier…

• list_new_venues

  Venues recently added to the Dim Hour catalog — across all 26 cities or one city. Use for 'what's new on Dim Hour' / new-opening alerts / weekly digests. Scored places to eat and drink come first; hotels, malls, museums and landmarks carry no `score` and follow them. Recency…

• search

  Search Dim Hour's restaurant, bar and venue catalog across all 26 cities. Returns ranked venues with a dimhour.com link for each. Use for questions about where to eat or drink — by cuisine, dish, neighborhood, city, vibe, or award.

  Find places for a specific occasion in one city — the task-shaped entry point. Give the city and what the evening needs (a cuisine, a neighborhood, a budget, a vibe) and it returns ranked, citable venues with a freshness receipt. Prefer this over search_venues when you are…

• get_hours

  Opening hours for one venue, from the Dim Hour catalog. ALWAYS returns `as_of` and never claims to be live — hours are catalog data, not a live feed, and the receipt says how old they are. Measured 2026-09-16, 82% of venues carry hours; when a venue has none this ABSTAINS and…
