Due to how often I get this question, I’m creating a quick guide to explain how to delete a review you wrote for a business on Google or Google Maps.

Search for the name of the business and click on the reviews.
Your review should float to the top. Click on your username.
This should pull up your profile on Google Maps. Click the 3 dots next to the review you want and click “delete review”.
