Log in requires: randomized account number, one-time passcode sent to email, correct password with a personalized image and caption, and then answer 3 questions. I haven't logged in in 2 years. I don't remember what the hell those answers are.

And no recovery method!?

Eataly has a patio?

Also, a lot of places have gotten unaffordable. I don't eat out often, but the food better be worth the price.
