Google is now testing a "not helpful" button in the local reviews within local listings in Google Maps and Google Search. Tom Waddington spotted this and posted the screenshot below on Twitter.

Google Reviews Not Helpful Button

Google did launch the helpful button in reviews like five years ago. Now, you just see the thumbs-up icon, but maybe now Google will show both helpful thumbs-up and not helpful thumbs-down?
