Making Sense of All the Stars

The good ol' ranking system of shaded stars has been a helpful marker of whether a restaurant is worthy of your patronage, but it doesn't help much when each review guide uses a different standard to judge restaurants: One star from the Michelin Guide is an honor, whereas one star from Time Out New York is a slap in the face, given that it operates on a six-star scale. Luckily, the New York Journal has posted an explanation of the various restaurant ranking star systems for some of the major media publications to assist you in your restaurant research.
