Photos, details, the reviewer's level? Curious what others look for before deciding.

    Details you can check. If someone says the dosa came with three chutneys and it does, I believe the rest.

      Specifics about what went wrong too. Nobody fakes a complaint about the parking.

      Exactly. Vague praise reads like an advert.

    Photos from the actual visit, not stock-looking ones.

    A mix of stars on someone's profile. All fives makes me suspicious.

      Fair, though some people only bother to write when they love a place.
