Watch A Dramatic Reading Of A Yelp Review

There's a new brand of literature out there, and chances are, you probably know of it — even if you don't realize it: the Yelp review.

All it takes is one searing review about rude wait staff or an all-too-detailed report of an uninvited hair to make even the most enthusiastic diner think twice about their choice.
