Facebook Inc said users in the United States would be able to order food through the Facebook pages of restaurants starting on Wednesday as part of its efforts to connect users and businesses. 

You can now order food from restaurants directly from their Facebook Pages. Simply click 'Start Order' on any restaurant's Facebook Page that uses Delivery.com or Slice. 

For local businesses that require you to book an appointment, such as spas and salons, you can now request a time via the business' Facebook Page and view their entire slate of services and offerings. They'll then get back to you on Messenger to confirm your appointment.

Some local business Pages will now have a 'Get Quote' button at the top that lets you easily and quickly request a quote from the business.

Facebook also said on Wednesday it would add a "recommendations" feature that will allow users to share recommendations on such things as places to eat.

For many new movies this fall, you can buy movie tickets straight from their Facebook Pages via Fandango. In partnership with Ticketmaster and Eventbrite, we’re also making it possible for people to get tickets to other events — free or paid — directly from the event page on Facebook. 

We’re starting to roll out these initial experiences in the US today. This is the first step, and over the coming months we’ll be launching even more new features that will make it easier to get things done, make confident decisions and communicate directly with businesses on your time and terms,Facebook said in a blog post.
