What are the Restrictions of Scraping Google Maps Reviews?

We advise using the limited number of reviews to extract from Google. You may not need over one thousand reviews from Google Maps. Google tries to push pictures and texts to the top of the list, so they are among the top to scrape. You will find it tough to scrape huge reviews from a single place leading to an expensive run.
