30 Delusional People Leaving Horrible Reviews For Restaurants, As Shared In This Online Group
A restaurant is often only as good as its reviews. Whether we read an article recommending that new Italian place downtown or one of our friends won't shut up about it, most likely, we will still check out its online rating and read what other people think of it before deciding to go there.
However, the democratization of criticism isn't always a good thing. And the subreddit r/YelpDrama features plenty of reasons why.
A popular category among its posts is ridiculous restaurant reviews that prove the customer isn't always right. We're talking trashing a joint that wasn't even open when you "ordered" your food, or a one star because they wouldn't allow you to order water and eat the meals you brought there yourself.

Best waiter I ever had was a gay guy. His friendliness and attention to detail was amazing, we asked for him every time we went to that restaurant. And I was in the service industry for 9 years. If there was an Oscar for best waiter, that guy should have won several. I always tipped him very well, too. He honestly set the bar too high. Servers can make or break your dining experience.
Rohina Brinsdon 3 years ago
When making a complaint you should make sure that your spelling and grammar is correct, as for the diners umbrage that the server is gay, that shows them to be ignorant, small minded and pathetic
Another problem is with platforms like Yelp and TripAdvisor is the fact that they're full of fake reviews.
Plus, people are much more likely to leave a review when they've had a bad experience, distorting the overall restaurant's rating.
That can bring disastrous consequences, especially for smaller businesses that have just opened up – one 2020 study found that an early bad review can turn customers away in the long term, and that reviewing platforms actually have an in-built bias towards popular restaurants.

Once upon a time I wouldn't have believed that someone had managed to reach adulthood without knowing what a bay leaf was, but a few years ago someone I know needed a bay leaf for her son's cookery lesson and went looking for it in the fruit and veg aisles.
As Giorgia Cannarella pointed out in Vice, the only other alternative, it seems, is reading food articles and blogs, hoping to land on an honest critique.
However, if you're familiar with the complex world of culinary criticism, you’ll know these things can also be hit or miss. Sometimes a new spot will get stellar reviews only to disappoint once you get there.

Different people value different aspects of a restaurant – the decor, the ambiance, the price, the surprise factor, but, according to Slovenian food and travel blogger Kaja Sajovic, there’s actually more to the story.
"We all know that food journalists don't get paid enough to cover the cost of a restaurant dinner, so press trips have become a necessity to do our job," Sajovic said. "And this creates a lot of ethical dilemmas. Can you really give a bad review of a restaurant you've been invited to, with flights and hotels covered? I think it's difficult, and maybe even a little bit unfair."

"There are few chefs who respond well and in-kind to criticism," food journalist Gabriele Zanatta, who writes for the Italian web magazine Identità Golose, explained.
Zanatta thinks that’s because cooks have historically been mostly hidden figures. It was only with France’s nouvelle cuisine movement of the 60s, which revolutionised international cooking, that chefs have become famous and “even achieved celebrity status over the last two decades,” Zanatta explained. "No wonder they’re intolerant to criticism! They had never been on such a pedestal."

Mr. Jones 3 years ago
The server had no obligation to tell these guys ANYTHING about her life outside of that restaurant. However, it's not uncommon for people to ask in what part of NYC do you live? My husband lived there for 25 years. Any time he tells someone, they ALWAYS ask what part of NYC he lived in. Thing is, people often say they live in a big city, but actually live outside of the city. I lived in Chicago for five years. I can't count the times I'd ask someone what part of Chicago they lived in and they would say the name of a suburb. I'd reply, "You don't live in Chicago, you live in Shamburg. It's an actual city with a name and zip code. Stop telling people you live in Chicago to look cool." The joke back then (early 90s) was you were either a 312 or a 708. 312 was the Chicago Area Code and 708 was the suburb code. We also used to joke that if you're going to hook up with someone from a bar, pick a 708 because you won't run into them again.
However, Zanatta also believes this chef-centric approach to food writing is slowly dying out. "We’re now paying more attention not only to the food but to all the other aspects that make a restaurant a restaurant," he said. In his experience, chefs nowadays are more willing to listen, provided that the criticism they’re receiving is not just a pretext for a food critic to flaunt their knowledge.

Being born and raised in the good ol u s of a I can personally affirm that all the other restaurants probably would've done the same or similar. Honestly, in my vast dining experiences (expert glutton) I have found that restaurants of international cuisine whose workers are of that origin/country seem to be much nicer. I prefer non American restaurants mostly because of the food but alot because the staff always seem more inviting and informative. Definitely gotta say that a** was probably a belligerent bigot who used some form of negative wording for a non-native American (ironic term) or otherwise insulted them
Chiara Cavalleris, editor in chief of the Italian food news site Dissapore, thinks that food journalists are not to blame for the state of things, but rather the food press in general.
She believes that news outlets are guilty of colluding with restaurant owners, an issue that has also come up in a scandal involving three-Michelin-star Florentine restaurant Enoteca Pinchiorri. In October 2021, its 77-year-old owner Giorgio Pinchiorri was sentenced to 4 months in prison for stalking a former employee, peeling back the veil on his restaurant’s toxic work culture. But none of the mainstream food press in Italy reported on it.
So is there such a thing as an accurate restaurant review? Who knows. But there's no shortage of absurd ones.

If you don't know what a meal is, you can read the description. If you don't know the description, you can ask the waiter. If you're too proud to ask the waiter, you can look it up on your phone. I remember when I was teaching in France and my roommate was German. Her French was ok but not great, but we spoke French together. She ordered lamb's brains and I figured that as a German, that was probably something she was cool with. She asked me if I wanted to try some. I pulled a face and she asked why. I told her I didn't eat "brains". What is "brains", she wanted to know. So because I speak German, I told her in German. She started gagging. She went to the bathroom and threw up. She couldn't eat after that. And guess what, she didn't blame the restaurant for her own ignorance. See, that's how it works, people.

So it might be a good rule of thumb, for dishes that are unusual like that, to either have a description on the menu or have waitstaff be sure to let customers know what is out of the ordinary about it when taking orders, so they can choose something else.

Customers are idiots. You gotta remember, the majority of the US at least has a reading level of like the 8th grade. You could have flashing neon signs with a full opera and they still won't know what going on.

I have a major food allergy. If I'm not sure what something is, I pull my phone out and search it. It's my responsibility to learn what I eat. If you're pregnant, you're risking two people's health. It's not a good time to be ordering something you never tried before. Perhaps the server should have been more clear what it was, but ultimately she's responsible for what she eats.

I kinda of get it. I get a pop up to review a car dealership every time I go to one of the ag centers near me. I've been tempted to do the same. Every time I hit a certain point in the store it alerts and I get another pop up. Happens about 5 times each visit. I've started leaving my phone in the car.

If this were happening to me, I'd probably be mad too... But at Google, not at Starbucks! So I'd either give up on reviewing things out of principal, or just give them 5 stars and state why. Don't hurt the restaurant because Google has a bad algorithm!

Red Robin Needs To Wise Up

I prefer Diet Coke to Coke Zero. Different people different likes. That's cool. Being mad at a Red Robin over either is simply silly.

No, they use different sweeteners and have a noticably different flavor. Diet Coke has a little more zip/fizz plus more caffeine, and the sweetener doesn't taste as natural. Coke Zero is closer to Coca-Cola in taste and caffeine.

They are doing it to be respectful, likely due to training. If someone addresses you as "sir" or "ma'am" it is acceptable to request that they refer to you in another respectful manner, a more casual manner, or perhaps, by your first name. Please bear in mind that their point IS to be respectful. If you prefer "Your Imperial Highness Mr. Poopy Head", it may not happen but it's OK to ask.
Kimi Tomminello 3 years ago
Was going to say the same. When you're in the service industry it is drilled into your head to refer to people as "sir" or "ma'am" and you wouldn't believe how angry a lot of people get when you don't do just so. For every person that has a complaint like this there would be about 10 complaints if they stopped using "Sir" or "Ma'am".

As someone with they/them pronouns, I am not offended when someone calls me "ma'am" or "sir" I will literally answer to anything. I know that it's not the same for everyone, but I don't find it a big deal if someone assumes my gender because they don't know it. I haven't told them, so how would they?

The military? Where you have to do pushups if you don't call a superior officer "sir"? That military?
Freddy H 3 years ago
No, the military in the real world where only officers are called "sir." Occasionally, a private might slip and call a sergeant or some other non-comm "sir" and they might reply "Don't call me sir, I work for a living." THAT military. And despite what you've seen in movies, officers and non-comms are not permitted to arbitrarily punish subordinates with physical exercise like a basic training drill instructor would do. That is considered abusive treatment and an illegal order.

When Panera Bread Is Intimidating
Marco Hub-Dub 3 years ago
First sentence they make it clear they’re often pissed off. As in, default state is angry. Which I doubt has anything to do with the business. That’s a “mirror/self” issue. But it’s upscale and pretentious or youthful???? As if that’s a reason to b***h, but this person thinks Panera is a hip, upscale scene for the young??? They’re obviously demented and resentful, both due to age.

They don't usually write bad reviews because it was the fault of just one person who ticked them off...but the person who served them at the self-service counter really does sound horrible.

If You’ve Been Here, You Know
Marco Hub-Dub 3 years ago
Haha! 1st: gay secs clubs are anointed in sweat, cum and lube. Period. Every one I’ve been in and I’ve been in LOTS. So, her complaint is her man goes to gay secs club, where presumedly gay men or at least men who like sec with men go to have secs with men and he was brushed up against or bumped into (often the “code” used to show interest in a place where one wears a towel or nothing, and men are literally there to have sex and it’s often VERY dark) & she wants to worry about blurry consent lines? Consent is of extreme importance. When I go to a gay secs club, trust me, I’m there to give consent. If anyone whom I’m not interested in brushes against me or caresses me, I politely decline by removing their fingers or c**k & continue to prowl the space. Even an nod of “no thank you” will do, but com’on

This Chicken Restaurant Didn't Have Vegetarian Options
Kimi Tomminello 3 years ago
I'm not going to go into a vegetarian based restaurant and expect them to serve me a perfectly prepared wagu steak why do certain vegetarians/ vegans expect to go into establishments that are meat centered and expect a special menu prepared just for them? Don't leave a 1 star review because you chose a restaurant that couldn't cater to you.
Kathryn Baylis 3 years ago (edited)
Rather snooty to expect everyone everywhere to immediately understand your chosen dietary lifestyle, especially if you’re in a place where people aren’t all that experienced and worldly. Since vegetarianism and veganism are still the exception rather than the rule, it is just as incumbent upon the vegetarian/vegan to be understanding about a restaurant’s menu, and figure out a workaround to it. Nothing wrong with filling up on salads and vegetable sides, rather than main dishes. I can’t eat gluten, but don’t expect the waitstaff to know what that means, or the kitchen staff to bend over backwards to make gluten-free food for me. So I choose menu items that don’t contain it (basically grilled meat and vegetables without flour-based sauces and gravies). If there aren’t any, I just have a salad.

Why would they still choose to eat here after seeing the state of the bathrooms? Also, how unobservant are you if you could have eaten the coins? Even if you are picking up fries without looking at them a coin would feel quite different from a French fry.
