Restaurant reviews. Which site?

Hi All,

What's the best source for restaurant reviews in Japan? Tripadvisor doesn't seem to have that many reviews to consider it reliable at all

www.bento.com is the one I use most frequently during my visits to Tokyo/Yokohama.

Tabelog, but it's Japanese-only. Gurunavi is also good and they have a somewhat half-assed English version too.

Gurunavi is not really a review site, but rather a place for restaurants to advertise with a very good search function. They do host English versions of the Japan Michelin Guides online.

Livedoor Gourmet is a very distant runner-up to Tabelog.

Bento.com seems to be by far the best English language option available.
