Yelp

Find nearby restaurants, bars and banks using the iPhone's built-in GPS. Yelp offers thousands of reviews from its regular-Joe users, who are passionate about their favorite spots to eat and drink. Yelp isn't alone: UrbanSpoon offers a similarly helpful local eatery locator, and later this year Vindigo, a top-notch service that culls professional reviews, plans to release its own iPhone app.
