Are These Trending Denver Restaurants On Your Radar?

(HOODLINE) - As fans of cronuts and cake pops can attest, food trends come and go. So how can you tell which tastes are trending right now? We took a data-driven look at the question, using Yelp to discover which local businesses have been most discussed this month.

To find out who made the list, we looked at Denver businesses on Yelp by category and counted how many reviews each received. Rather than compare them based on number of reviews alone, we calculated a percentage increase in reviews over the past month, and tracked businesses that consistently increase their volume of reviews to identify statistically significant outliers compared to past performance.

Read on to see which spots are riding a trend, right now.
