How this score works
The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.
- Burst
- — an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
- Low activity account
- — the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
- Duplicate text
- — the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.
Verdicts are statistical estimates based on public review patterns, not accusations.

You walk though a busy marketplace selling all Italian foods & delicacies to your restaurant. We ate in the & La Pizza & La Pasta on the ground floor. Table for 7 right in the middle of all this great activity. Food was excellent as was the service and attention.

The lady working at the gelato place during the pride parade was so sweet. My friends and I came in to get some ac because my one friend was feeling faint. She let us sit and use the ac for a bit before we ordered. She even moves the ac closer to us. And the gelato was amazing! Definitely recommend...
