My Two Cents
Over the years restaurant owners and operators have jumped at trends, fads and whatever it is that the public demands. But I have never seen such a keen interest in what the public forums are extolling in the way of remarks, reviews and, sometimes, just plain trash. 
But we take these seriously, whether they are meant to be or not. 

The first thing I do every morning ( well, second thing I do) is check out new reviews on Yelp; or Open Table; or Citysearch; and on and on. I need to make sure that we, as well as our customers, are well represented and treated fairly. This may not always be the case. In the early days of "online criticism" we were subjected to obvious "agenda" driven reports. " I hate Joe's Deli, but you need to try "Frank's Place"....signed Frank!  Well, that probably still goes on, but alot of the filtering process removes these types of abuses. 
The abuses that are more difficult to track, however, are the reviews meant to garner a prize for the writer. These are touchy, difficult and very costly reviews. "I didn't want to complain when I was there, but the steak was not cooked to my liking!", " the waiter served me the wrong wine, but I drank it anyway", " I had a wonderful night but it was marred by the valet who too long to get my car". Right or wrong, these may keep other customers away, and thats where the terrible "cost" is factored in. Loss of income due to an overzealous critic. Help!

Obviously, we in the business can stumble at any point during a meal...even getting the patrons back to their cars. We absorb responsibility for all of that....and yet, its all in a days work. For the most part, we take it in stride and the customer is always right. And we love every minute of it.
Regards, and see you soon!
