I like the idea. However the results did not seem to be completely accurate for me. For example, I searched for Steak, Midtown, NYC. The first result, was Peter Luger (an amazing steakhouse) but it's located in Brooklyn (a real schlep from midtown). Other than that it would be great if you could incorporate the reviews in their entirety within your site, rather than pointing us to an external URL.

Thanks. The area you search for (in this case, midtown, NYC) helps determine the visible map area, and then the returned results are the top ranked places within that visible map. If you don't want any brooklyn results, you can zoom in or pan on the map to only have the particular area of interest visible in the map. If you ensure you can't see brooklyn in the map, then Peter Luger should no longer show up in your results (but let me know if that's not the case for you).

As for including reviews in their entirety, I completely agree that would be valuable. However, we don't want to copy reviews completely (as that's likely copyright infringement). Instead, we try to make it (relatively) easy to jump quickly from Hotspot Robot to the original content creators if you want more details on reviews (or if you want menus from menupages, reservations from open table etc).
