For a restaurant on a competitive site, like OpenTable, they must have strong reviews to set them apart from their competitors on the app.

How do we check for this?
Reviews are publicly available on OpenTable.

What can I do about it?
Knowing the total reviews count, you can discuss how a restaurant is interacting with their customers and what they can do to increase the amount of positive feedback they receive on the app.

If you have any questions about these new features, or anything else, please feel free to contact our support team at support@buzzboard.com or call us at +1 (201) 708-2724.
