Our Data-Driven Ranking Methodology
Unlike simple star-rating lists, we use a Bayesian averaging algorithm to rank restaurants fairly and accurately. This statistical approach solves a common problem: a restaurant with 2 five-star reviews shouldn't rank higher than one with 4.8 stars from 500 reviews.
How It Works
Our algorithm balances two key factors:
- Rating quality - The average star rating from Google reviews
- Rating confidence - The number of reviews (more reviews = more reliable rating)
Restaurants with few reviews are adjusted toward the average rating until they build up enough reviews to prove their quality. This means a new restaurant with just 3 five-star reviews won't immediately jump to #1, but as they accumulate more positive reviews, they'll naturally rise in the rankings.
We also factor in our personal experiences - restaurants marked with the ❤️ badge are places James & Mona have personally visited and loved. These recommendations include what to order and why we keep coming back.
