Photos: Yelpers Yelp About Yelp at Molly's in Soulard

This week at Molly's in Soulard, some local "elite" users of Yelp -- the mega consumer review website that ranks restaurants, bars, clubs and myriad other establishments -- got together to talk food and, of course, drink.

Photographer Crystal Rolfe brings back these photos from the event, where some of the most-frequent users of the site gathered (ostensibly) to talk about their reviews face-to-face and nab a lunchbox.

Seeing these photos, Unreal couldn't help but wonder how Yelpers themselves would rate the soirée...

​
"I'd heard so much about Yelp's gatherings, I finally decided to check one out for myself. Everything I'd heard was true -- and then some! The registration table was top-notch. I know some people thing Sharpie markers are played out, but I think they add a nice touch. I mean, how else are you going to make your name bold enough for strangers to read from across the room. And the Mardi Gras beads? So. Cute." - Jessie K.

​"I was shocked to find the so-called Elite of Yelp drinking such a proletarian 'beer' as Bud Light. I suppose if I want to be an Elite Yelper, I have to stop drinking craft beers. Maybe that's why I wasn't invited to this gathering? I just happened to be at Molly's for dinner. Four stars for the restaurant, but one star for the party -- and only because of that chick with the red hair." - Arnold P.

Molly's in Soulard's fried mushrooms.

​"OMG. So everyone received these awesome goblets with our names on them. Totally for free. Totally just for showing up. Guess what? They spelled my name wrong. I'm Anjelique, not Angelique. I tried not to let it ruin my night, but every time I lifted the goblet to my lips, that g was staring back at me. I will give them credit: They offered me all the fried mushrooms -- my favorite! -- I could eat." -- Anjelique Q.
