From my habits, I've found you really don't get the full picture using one platform. Google Users will review a restaurant in a completely different way than Yelp users. Zomato users are looking for different things than say a facebook user. That's why they all have different average scores.

1. I have a friend cloning the app right now for android. Many of the things brought up in this post (like requiring facebook ) will be changed

2. Copying review results does not violate the terms of services. https://www.quora.com/Is-it-legal-to-use-review-information-...

"In the US, so long as you have the legal right to access the data to begin with (i.e., you didn't crack into someone's system to get it), yes. Simple facts, and things like mathematical analysis of those facts, cannot be copyrighted."
