For a web mashup like this, doing it in JavaScript would probably be
the most direct approach. Google provides access to the Google Maps
API, and it's documented:
https://developers.google.com/maps/
You'd use this API to bring up a Google Maps page, and drive its
display with other sources of data.
Yelp provides an accessible API for query:
http://www.yelp.com/developers/documentation/v2/overview
JavaScript is not Python, but that doesn't make it a bad thing. If I
were to do a web mashup, I'd look into JavaScript-ing it rather than
try to make the web tools through Python alone.
That being said, if Python is a hard requirement here, you can look
into a project like pymaps:
