I've found yelp to be surprisingly accurate and helpful. I don't bother with Google reviews though

Comment trouvez-vous les meilleurs restaurants, salons et bars? Yes, le site d'avis autrefois omniprésent, a perdu de sa popularité ces dernières années.

Of course. People have discovered that people don’t have good taste or judgement.

There was no fake news before we had a fake president.

There has always been Fake News (since Cronkite retired). Trump was the first President to call it out. Any updates on that two year Trump-Russia story you pumped daily for two years?

How about all the fake reviews on Amazon?

'Here's how a look at the...' Um, how a look? I don't know. How a look indeed.

Wait, so shaking down small businesses for “premium accounts” in order to get ranked higher in searches *isn’t* the best way to run a recommendation company?

I still use it almost daily. Yelp probably has too much influence on the places I choose to give my business 😂

This is why yelp has no credibility. boycottyelp

Yelp is garbage

To Yelp marketers, here’s my focus group findings just for you, free: forcing people to move to your app from your mobile site destroys UX, drives people away and erodes any goodwill you may have once had...

Google and Google Maps.

I don't like going to them

Yelp, it sure has. cheesy

Who is that? Fredo?

Checkout instacryptonews , they have a great service too.

That’s because Yelp sided with owners on reviews. It hides negative reviews, letting up front the positive ones... If I would like a honest review on a business, I will check somewhere else, not Yelp...

Yelp's majority deranged wannabes. threatening with bad reviews if not cutting in line, &threating the servicer for all inclusive without extra charge because they'll put his name. the servicer isn't the food establishment the cook is. dmv should have 50% yelp = dmv is a must go

Useful / great app but how they interact with small business owners has been atrocious

And let’s not forget the annoying “must open in app” when trying to read a review or see a picture in maps. I could easily download yelp but then why integrate it to maps? Just for that i won’t download it.

There are a lot of 'fake' or competitor reviews that sneak into Yelp. So credibility might be about 50/50.
