Online reviews can be a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it can be useful to get opinions from a lot of different people. On the other hand, you don’t really know how reliable those opinions are. The reviewers might, for their own reasons, give something a better or worse review than it deserves. So what do you do if you’re a business owner and someone leaves a fake bad review of your place, whether as part of a prank or deliberate sabotage? Well, if you’re the restaurant owners in this article, you clap back. We’ve gathered examples from around the web of restaurant owners who were not willing to sit quietly by while people slandered their business online.
