Food was great but still only 1 star? That must’ve been some really horrible service. After all, I think we learned from this guy that if the food is really good it’s still worth it:

People hated going there despite the life-changing soup. ONE STAR FOR YOU!

Elaine hated it because she couldn’t force herself to follow the rules. She found the guy’s recipes and ruined it for everyone else. All the other characters loved the soup though and put up with it. So I wouldn’t say they hated going there. Look at the way Newman looks at his jambalaya. He’s enraptured. He’s in absolute bliss!

Newman certainly had a special relationship with food.

Opening what? Opening what?! I MUST KNOW!

Opening with "go kill yourself" and ending with "Have a nice life" is an interesting choice.

Well, I think we've discovered where the servers are getting their terrible attitude from. Had I read Todd's review, I probably still would have tried the restaurant. After reading the owner's response I wouldn't try the restaurant, and I'd actively tell other people to avoid it.

I would check the food out, because I don't mind putting up with questionable service for great food. I still wouldn't assume the service was trash until I went there. I know how some customers can be very entitled in restaurants.

Hey he didn't say a LONG life...

You can want someone to have a nice life and still not want them to have a long life. Is it really cruel to hope someone has an amazing two days and then die instantly? Better than what's in store for a bunch of us 😅

This doesn’t read like an old person struggling with technology. Todd is killing it, actually.

Nice response!

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Dinner and a show!

[–] DoctorButts@kbin.melroy.org 4 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Todds are always jerks, right

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The owner is the jerk. Todd's just leaving an honest review.

You're thinking way too hard about my stupid joke comment

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago

What, "way too hard" as in "at all"? Clearly more than you did lol

the only todd i’ve met had a felony for cattle rustling and was accused of taking food out of orders he was delivering. i’m not saying it’s every todd, but it’s 2/2 so far.

Once saw a Todd murder a child in a desert in cold blood to try and cover up a crime.
