Computed from public Google data · 1,770 reviews on Google · updates automatically. Additional public review sources join as their data comes online. Topic analysis is based on mention counts in review text, not star averages. The "rating distribution" layer reflects every review on the platform; the "lexicon analysis"/"AI analysis" layer is based on the sample of reviews actually analyzed. The average rating is measured against the Miami-Dade market average of 4.3 across 17,504 restaurants.
