Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Our first time in this very elegant restaurant. Outside it was a chilly January evening, the restaurant was pleasantly warm on entry - a pre-requisite for me eating out that night. We were greeted by the most charming waitor, Jose, and shown to our table....More

We were recommended this restaurant whilst on holiday by a local shop keeper. "Do you like steak? " he asked. Meson El Caballo was a fantastic discovery. The decor of the restaurant was of a traditional Spanish Style. Very colourful but relaxing. The Chateaubriand was...More
