In v3 yelp has a reviews API and it returns only three reviews per business.

Unfortunately, yelp restricts reviews access via APIs. With the V2.0, it is restricted to just one review snippet, which is also truncated after 40 chars.

An alternate that you could try is to use web scraping platforms such as scrapy. Again, the challenge here is that, yelp changes its layout pretty often just to make sure you don't scrape out their data and hence, your scripts will likely fail after sometime.
