Get Business Data Yelp Reviews Results by id

 
This endpoint provides reviews published on the Yelp platform. The results are specific to the selected alias and language parameters.

The returned results are specific to the indicated local establishment and language parameters. We emulate set parameters with the highest accuracy so that the results you receive will match the actual search results for the specified parameters at the time of task setting. You can always check the returned results accessing the check_url in the Incognito mode to make sure the received data is entirely relevant. Note that user preferences, search history, and other personalized search factors are ignored by our system and thus would not be reflected in the returned results.

I gotta say that I was a little hesitant to go for tacos in Singapore. I mean, if I sometimes can't find good tacos in the USA, which is just north of the border from Mexico. How was I going to find real tacos in Singapore? ...But I was WRONG!

Obviously not all of their menu is authentic Mexican; they do have a lot of tacos and dishes which are a fusion of Mexican with Korean and other styles. To keep it traditional, we order the Tacos de Carne Asada and to try something new had the Tacos de Pollo con Kimchi. The carne asada tacos were legit!!!! The meat was so tender and flavorful, the red salsa was spicy and delicious, and the tortilla was made to perfection. The carne asada tacos definitely made me think about my hometown of Ciudad Juarez in Mexico. The Kimchi Chicken tacos, were also really good and fresh, but I gotta say they were a little too oily for my taste, and could barely taste the chicken. It was definitely something I had never tried before and I actually kind of like it.

Also, we were here on a Tuesday and they had a deal of 3 tacos for the price of 2 (#WINNING).", "review_images": [ "https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/VlV2w82LL99GQwd-lhJGDQ/180s.jpg", "https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/RhBCVI8ydxL-QTXn836Aqw/180s.jpg", "https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/M_1JpLv9pg1CXuj9Y9AdlA/180s.jpg", "https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/aS3EO7Yg9DL8-PGMat4DUg/180s.jpg" ], "user_profile": { "name": "Fernanda F.", "url": "https://yelp.com/user_details?userid=D4GfXGZ1x4qQJNUFLyN9OA", "image_url": "https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/photo/PD9wj1AmCt-JWlYVhEZ21g/60s.jpg", "location": null, "reviews_count": null }, "responses": null }, { "type": "yelp_reviews_search", "rank_group": 10, "rank_absolute": 10, "position": "left", "review_id": "DWl4LLnHytO_yTn922iUhw", "rating": { "rating_type": "Max5", "value": 5, "votes_count": null, "rating_max": null }, "timestamp": "2017-10-23T00:00:00", "review_text": "After enjoying my meal, I took a peek into their kitchen to see if they had Mexicans preparing food - that's how good it was.
