JAWS screen reader user highlighted an issue related to the ambiguity of the "Zoom to here" link text. This problem becomes more pronounced when the screen reader user expands multiple restaurant information buttons simultaneously, a situation which non-screen reader users are prevented from experiencing due to the restriction of only opening one restaurant information button at a time.

The link text "Zoom to here" doesn't clearly specify the target of "here," making it difficult for the users to understand what location the link would zoom into. This lack of clarity becomes even more confusing when multiple "Zoom to here" links are present on the screen, each pertaining to a different restaurant button.

First off, having multiple location / features open at once is a bug.

"Zoom to here" is a common way of describing this function. Another way of stating this might be "Filter locations to vicinity of this one" , which would definitely be meaningful but is probably too long.

We could also consider "Zoom to feature" which may introduce people to the idea of geographic features a bit more. Comment below. merci
