Yelp: Los Andes Restaurant makes best places to eat in 2016 list

PROVIDENCE – Los Andes Restaurant in Providence made Yelp’s top 100 list of the best places to eat in the U.S. in 2016, coming in at No. 54.
The Latin American-Peruvian restaurant on Chalkstone Avenue received an overall 4.5 out of five stars on the online review website.
This is the third year the restaurant has made Yelp’s best places to eat list.
One reviewer, Melissa H. from Texas, gave it five stars, saying, “This spot was off the chain!! Highly recommend … Pork stew, then on to the curry inspired mussels. Oh man. The spices and fresh ingredients slapped you in the face as you took every bite. Wish we had a place like this in Texas!! Love PVD gems like this.”
Yelp said that to determine the best places to eat in 2016, it analyzed which places were the all-time most popular and well-reviewed on its website.
It said businesses from across the country were compared using a ranking looking at ratings and number of reviews while accounting for quality, popularity and statistical fluctuations. The list also looked at a restaurant’s performance since the founding of Yelp in 2004, a new twist to the list this year.
Los Andes also was one of only two New England restaurants to make the list. Boston’s Neptune Oyster came in at No. 79.
