Questions
Is someone eligible for a Servie if they’ve worked in restaurants for the last 6 months, but at different locations or businesses?
No. One must be employed at the same restaurant for at least the last 6 months.
Can one person be nominated more than once for a Servie?
Yes. One person can be nominated multiple times, as long as it’s by different nominators. Additionally, each nominator may submit one nomination per eligible individual for each Award Category and can submit multiple nominations so long as the Entry is for a different individual and/or a different Award Category.
I’m located outside of the United States, but my nominee is inside the United States. Am I able to nominate them?
You must have your Yelp location turned on and you must be in the United States to be eligible to nominate someone for a Servie.
I don’t have all of the information on my nominee that the form is asking for. Will my nomination still be considered?
Please provide any and all information you can. The Yelp for Restaurants Team will do its best to follow up and get the additional information needed to complete and verify the nomination. However, if we are unable to do so, your nomination may not be considered.
Will receiving multiple Servies nominations increase one’s chances of winning or making the official nominee list?
Not necessarily. All nominations will be weighed against the same criteria, and official voting is done publicly.
Is there any way to increase my nominee’s chances of being chosen for the Official Nomination List?
The best way to increase your nominee’s chances of being selected for the Official Nomination List is to be as comprehensive as possible on the nomination form. There are no additional ways to increase their chances.
Is there any follow up after I nominate someone?
