Abstract

Enjoying local food could be one of the motives for tourism, and local food and restaurant recommendation information would be important for tourists to decide their destination. Recommendation agents are the sorting and searching function to find the best local food and restaurant among the complexity of information, and they could also be helpful for the tourist to decide their destination. Online tourism websites (e.g., Ctrip.com ) started to provide restaurant recommendations containing food-related information and recommendation agents to attract tourists. However, few studies have investigated their impact on the destination visit intention of potential Chinese tourists. This study aims to empirically validate how restaurant recommendation information, including food-related information and recommendation agents, could impact online tourists’ reactions, such as satisfaction, continuous website usage, and destination visits. We developed our hypothesis based on the information system (IS) success model. We gathered 202 data points from potential tourists using quasi-experimental methods, and these data were analyzed by the PLS algorithm. The results indicate that restaurant recommendation information and recommendation agents significantly increase the perceived information quality and perceived system quality. Increased perceived information quality and system quality could significantly increase potential tourists’ satisfaction, website continuous usage intention, and destination visit intention. The results of this study could contribute to making tourism websites more attractive by using local food and restaurant information and recommendation agents.
