Google Maps may soon expand beyond restaurant suggestions to actually placing your order

• Ask Maps in Google Maps already uses Gemini to give you recommendations about restaurants you might like.
• Now Ask Maps appears to be getting ready to actually place food orders for you.
• It’s not yet clear exactly how this agentic capability will work, or if there will be device restrictions.

Like everything else under Google’s sun, Maps currently incorporates a healthy dose of Gemini, with one of its biggest upgrades landing this past spring through the introduction of Ask Maps. That can be a great resource when you’re out and about and looking for suggestions on somewhere to visit — like a restaurant recommendation, for instance. For as useful as that is, it could soon be getting even better, as Maps gets ready to place food orders on your behalf, so your order’s ready when you get there.
