How to read the scores

What consensus actually means here.

Consensus	Simple average of Google, Yelp, and Tripadvisor scores, each converted to the 0–100 scale. A place that scores 90+ across all three is genuinely, durably good. One that scores 90 on Google and 60 on Yelp has a story to tell.
Accolades	Sourced from Harry's editorial enrichment pass — Michelin Guide inspection reports, JBF nomination archives, the World's 50 Best annual list, NYT's restaurant critics, and Eater's city editors. These are cross-matched against the restaurants table, not self-reported.
What's missing	Harry's database isn't complete. Award-winning restaurants outside the eight core cities are under-represented. A missing restaurant is a gap in coverage, not a judgment.

From the marginalia

Observations, filed as they occur.

The worst outcome: a restaurant wins an award, the price goes up, the kitchen loosens, the score drops. Harry tracks all three.
Awards are a snapshot. The rating the morning after the award announcement is the data.
Critics dine once, on best behaviour. Harry's score aggregates thousands of dinners on ordinary Tuesdays.
A Michelin star says the inspectors went back. A high Harry score says the public agrees. Both together is a short list.
A World's 50 Best ranking is marketing for twelve months. The Yelp rating is what's left after.

What the critics chose. What the public thinks.
