Guidelines for writing the review
The ratings are for the overall dining experience. But in the review a few things to touch on are:
- Is this a one-off meal or do you know this restaurant well?
- Whether the food was good (obviously consider taste, invention, food freshness, standard of wine, size of portions, locally sourced).
- Whether the service was good (friendly, prompt)
- The kind of ambience that the restaurant had (consider city location, mood inside, music if any, live or not)
- Mention if the meal was good value or not and whether you will go back again
