We're thinking about doing something like that, although I have some concerns including the accuracy of a smartphone dB app and the wild variability of noise depending on the crowd, the time of day, and whether your neighbors lost their indoor voices.

I just don't think a one-time check would be very fair, because a place that I hit on a busy night with a noisy party nearby is going to get an undeserved ding compared with a place that's actually similar but where I hit on a quiet night with a half-empty room and no one close to us. I'm going to try giving a verbal check, but I'm not inclined to go with a reading, because it implies a precision that isn't really there.
