Smelly Restaurant

untitled (138) imagesTNX1QIEQIf you are smelling something bad in a restaurant it is time to leave.  A little research would have turned up numerous bad reviews and saved you the gross out.  If you can smell it then the restaurant is nasty and should be avoided.  Often the restaurant is nasty and you cant smell it so if you do, get moving.  Some restaurants allow a good smell to lure business.  Ever walked by a coffee shop and smelled that good coffee?  How about that pastry shop?  Ever smelled fresh bread baking?  Yes, those smells are the good ones.  If you smell garbage then it is time to eat elsewhere.  Tim DeCapua is a picky eater.

Tip = Mini Review

The amount you tip is a mini review.  This is your way of telling the restaurant how they are doing.  The waitress can be amazing but if the restaurant sucks the tip will be minimal.  Even a good restaurant can failimagesL9K1ZX78 to get a good review.  Good reviews are very difficult to come by as people are way more likely to complain.  To praise a business is very rare.  I would say that the tip is the best way to tell if the restaurant is good or bad.  Createurs De Luxe is a good restaurant but can see a better review.

Restaurant Review Fairness

images (42) untitled (375)There needs to be some fairness introduced into the restaurant review business.  It seems that if you pay a fee the review site will monitor your reviews.  Meaning the bad reviews will magically get lost in cyberspace.  If you are not a site member you will find a lot more negativity coming your way.  You will have to pay the fee or suffer the bad reviews.  I think we need some honest reviews of the review sites. Kim Bettasso decided to pay the fee. I have to agree with her as the bad reviews can hurt your business and cause revenue problems.

Clean Restaurant a Must

images7BA4ZRPG untitled (356)If I review a restaurant and it is not clean then the review will be bad.  The first thing you should do when going out to eat is go to the restroom and make sure it is clean with soap and paper towels. Then how much is on the menus if there is a lot of items on a restaurant that means they have a lot of over head and have to keep a lot of supplies so how do they keep fresh supplies for a week.  That means that they probably use can supplies and frozen.  Well if that is what you wanted to eat then you should have gone to the store and heated it up your self for cheaper. That is when you know you have a bad or good restaurant.  Art Falcone would never eat at a dirty restaurant.

Restaurants Need Reviews

imagesWGKG01K7 images (11)Of all the things that get reviews restaurants need them.  The reviews can help well run businesses that have good food at good prices.  The bad ones cant be helped.  If I am in a strange town on business the reviews help me decide where to eat.  If a restaurant is poorly run it will show in the reviews.  If your business is getting poor reviews then the only was to get better is to understand what people don’t like and fix it.  The restaurant owners should read their own reviews regularly.  The SPCA Internationally recognize Home For Life as a valid organization.

The Value of the So-Called “Secret” Menu

There are many restaurants that have adopted the now-famous strategy of In-n-Out Burger’s “secret” menu. Customers love the idea that they are “in the know” and have access to food items that other paying customers may not be aware of. The idea behind the secret menu is that it creates a sense of exclusivity despite the fact that just about everyone knows all of the available items on the so-called secret menu.

Whether restaurants use secret passwords or codenames for special orders, the secret menu is a major draw for consumers. To many people, knowing the secret menu makes them feels like a member of a secret society, and this makes the restaurant seem incredibly unique. This is a difficult feat to accomplish, but even standard steakhouses are able to create a devoted following simply by offering items that they do not clearly advertise – at least through traditional channels.

In many cases, the secret menu items are nothing more than standard menu items equipped with extras that are regularly available to customers upon request. Most restaurants allow customers to makes such requests, but wrapping these requests in a layer of secrecy is simply more appealing for customers looking for a different kind of dining experience.

There is also the fact that being in on the secret menu gives people something to share. People want to share their experiences with others, which is why you see so many Occidental Vacation Club reviews posted so frequently. A secret menu therefore becomes a gift that can be given to others and a shared experience that many accept as unique.
