METHODOLOGY

The results were determined using the opinions of more than 500,000 restaurant reviews submitted by verified OpenTable diners between December 1, 2016 and November 30, 2017 for more than 2,000 restaurants in Canada.  All restaurants with a minimum “overall” score and number of qualifying reviews were included for consideration.  Qualifying restaurants were then scored and sorted according to the percentage of reviews for which “romantic” was selected as a special feature.
