    Too bad. I have paid attention to yelp reviews in the past. Not so much now. I guess that they have to make money somehow. and I am not sure what the real answer is to this

    That's freaking brilliant! If I lived nearby, it would make me want to go there and eat - then shake the guy's hand!

    That is fantastic!

    Kudos to Cerrentini, he certainly had guts.

    That's the way to fight corruption!
