We had a vegetarian Fettuccine made with a white wine pan sauce. Thing is, we didn't have an Alfredo on the menu. Just take solace in the fact that never in the history of the universe has a restaurant has gone under because of a bad review on Yelp.ġ One time, we got a one star review from someone on our Fettuccine Alfredo for being bland, tasteless and too thin. But there's just nothing you can do to stop them. Of course, they are wrong, and usually (but not always) liars. It makes them feel as though justice was done. They get a certain pleasure in the notion that, because they had an unpleasant experience at your restaurant, they can shut down your restaurant and obliterate your livelihood with the power of their words. The assholes, well, there's honestly nothing you can do. And for the most part, they're willing to learn, if you approach them correctly. The foodies, all you can do is just educate them. Foodies who have no idea what the fuck they're talking about 1 and assholes who have to broadcast their displeasure to the entire world about absolutely everything 2. rantīut Yelp is a place for two types of people to review restaurants. It would be different if everyone was subject to yelp reviews, and I could come to your office where you make paperworks and complain that your TPS report has pages 98 and 99 reversed, or that your m&m's jar on your desk wasn't endlessly filled for me. I don't think it's going to sink a place, but there are people who place a lot of emphasis on yelp in particular, and reading that the dining room is dimly lit and the bread wasn't endless could keep them out of somewhere that they may enjoy. People not realizing that the shit they type on the internets has a real impact on whether people come or not. If you don't mention a food or service issue to a staff member and give them the chance to make it right, you generally shouldn't complain about it. People's day being ruined by things that places deserve the opportunity to fix. Yes the lot next door that is owned by someone else is patrolled by towtrucks, we have a sign on our door warning you about it. People slamming the restaurant for situations outside the restaurant's control. Don't complain that you found my hollandaise to be too rich, or my country sourdough too crusty, or my staff incompetent because they very nicely asked for clarification about how to make the "vegan omelette" you say you've had elsewhere before. People slamming the restaurant for their own ignorance. French Laundry and Bill's Family BBQ are going to be different experiences, but both can be 5 star experiences. People not adjusting their standards to the restaurant. Instead Yelp seems like it's typically people who walk in looking for faults and reasons to be offended. It's unfortunate too, as that could be a great way for honest critique of restaurants. Post: 10977 ⬆️ | What do you call this dish?
