That would effectively remove all negative reviews. Eating out is expensive enough as it is, I'm not going to pay for mediocre food a second or third time around.

A better approach (for almost anything) is just to focus on reading 2-4 star reviews since they're usually the most measured.

While I am quite envious, not to mention suddenly hungry for pho, I don't think restaurant reviews qualify for a Show HN. There are guidelines for Show HN submissions at https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html

Thanks, I did not read those guidelines and it seems you are right!
