Abstract
The restaurant industry is a very competitive one, everyone wants to be ahead of the others, but how? online reviews is the answer, they have abundant information from various people who visit these restaurants frequently comparing the services and giving out their opinions. So a method of identifying the comparative sentences using the restaurant names was used. A single line graph network was used to check for the direction and number of the comparisons for each restaurant. The market structure could be easily determined and visualized by this single line graph. The importance values were calculated based on the sentiment scores present in each restaurant, from which the focal restaurant could be easily identified using the cluster analysis. Also, this gives us the top restaurants in the market. Managers of the restaurants will get to know the direct and indirect competition from the other restaurants. They can keep an eye on the competitors and devise their course of action to be ahead of them.
