rave reviews
Enthusiastic critical praise
Rave reviews are enthusiastically positive critical assessments, especially of performances, books, or restaurants.
The rave suggests wild, unrestrained praise rather than measured approval: The film opened to rave reviews.
A single assessment is a rave review; collectively, something gets rave reviews or receives raves.
