The fishiest reader reviews ever..

Altitude 360 – Sunday Brunch.

4 reviews, all first time posts within minutes of one another, all scoring 8-10.

Editor – Can we please have some policing so these scores are not deliberately skewed ?

Hear Hear! It's really irritating (and surely pretty obvious to anyone who reads them anyway).

Totally agree – thoroughly misleading and this is not the first time they've posted like this.

We agree that such comments are irritating and of no benefit to anyone.

Our house rules state that neither restaurants, nor their agents and associates, are permitted to write reviews about themselves or their clients.

We take appropriate action where necessary, and where closer inspection reveals an abuse of these rules.

Thanks Editor : I look forward to the outcome of your inspection and removal of these spectacularly suspicious posts ! Square Meal has always proven to be a very trustworthy source of useful comments from fellow foodies and the blatant manipulation of the system does ruins it for all.

Oh dear, looks like Le Bouchon Breton has been at is as well now. 1 bad review.
5 excellent reviews from new reviewers on the same day. Fishy.

That's an insult to the glorious gift that are fish! It's totally annoying – I don't even read reviews here anymore, most of them are fake anyway (grunt, mumble). Christopher J, may I recommend some excellent bloggers such as Londoneater, Eatlikeagirl and Dos Hermannos. At least you know there is no sleeping editor behind their reviews that allows this phoney baloney. Or the top few foodies here should just get together and do their own blog.
