High Prices - Low Quality

The price to food quality does not match. The service, including this guy Jay, was inexperienced, ackward, and unfriendly. When one is hungry you will eat anything, but for the price you should expect more. The people running this place are not true foodies - no training and no background experience. It's like Jay woke up one day and said, hey I no longer want to be merchandiser, I think I'll open a restaurant. This restaurant needs help!

Some Hints:

  • The best reviews give a clear sense of why you liked or disliked a restaurant, bar, or store. And that means details. Mention specifics dishes, type of crowd, pros and cons...
  • If it's helpful to compare one place to another, go for it.
  • Come up with clever, funny, pithy subject lines, and write in the first person.
  • Don't forget to read the user rating guidelines and rules.
