San Francisco restaurant critic Michael Bauer on the star rating system: "I selfishly wish at times I could dump [star ratings], which would force people to read the review and make up their own minds. However, most readers like the star ratings. As a reviewer it also keeps me on my toes. When I get to the bottom of the review I have to come up with a star rating, and the descriptions have to justify that rating." [SFGate]
