Rating Scale

Many who read this might asked for clarification on my review system. I decided to add this page to help clarification. When comparing restaurants a good dive bar still can’t compare with a 5 star restaurant. I have to compare eateries to others in their class. Restaurants are broken it out by three classes, which will be labled as such.

Class

Quick Bites (dive bars, hot dog stands, burger, shakes, pizza)

Casual Dining ( family festaurants, low key sit down dining)

High End (fine dining, expensive meals)

 

 

1 out of 10–  Don’t go here, the food isn’t only terrible it can be dangerous. The place should be burned down and the ground salted.

2 out of 10 –  The food is terrible and the service is atrocious. It may not be dangerous to eat here, but there is no reason to go.

3 out of 10 – . A little better than a 2 rating, something happened that redeemed it somewhat. Not a place I will go …..Think Chili’s.

4 out of 10-. I just don’t like it, it isn’t wholly disgusting, just not a place I consider of high quality. Other options of similar price/food/atmosphere are much better.

5 out 10- Average

6 out 10-  A good not great place. I wouldn’t shun going there I just don’t find a compelling reason to go. If someone else wants to go fine, I wouldn’t feel I’m missing something if I don’t.

7 out 10-Try it.  A solid score, if close I will put it in my rotation. Maybe not great, but very good.

8 out of 10 – Eat it! A definite recommendation about one of my go to spots and among the best in its class (in the area). Usually a great dining experience.

9 out 10- Devour it. The best in its class, a rarity in the restaurant world. Outstanding food and service, almost a perfect restaurant. It may be known for and deserving as one the best of its kind.

10 out of 10 Perfection.  An almost unobtainable score. Not only is the food and service perfect, the experience on a whole is so memorable it will last a lifetime. Some types of eateries can’t achieve this. Pretty sure I will never have a bagel that creates this kind of reaction.

So to summarize I recommend places that are a least a 7 or above. I would avoid anything at a 4 or less. I  sometimes reluctantly go to the rest.
