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; Review Drive when the flags are mostly staff asking customers for named reviews. 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. Full methodology, signal definitions and known limits →

I tried two dishes! Both the pho and the spring rolls were delicious. The seasoning wasn't bland, nor did it feel too salty; it suited my taste perfectly! The staff were very friendly, and they even gave us watermelon as a complimentary...

Pizza was okay, not the best. We wanted to try the potato jackets but they were out of sour cream and wouldn’t allow us to order without. I’m sure other items on the menu are amazing.
