“10 Alarming Red Flags That Reveal You’re Dining in a Restaurant Disaster!”
There are a number of other things, but most of those would be circumstantial.
Edit: Coworkers found me. It’s my best comment and now I’ve gotta cut and burn. Adios.
Go to their bathroom and see how well kept it is . that should tell you everything you need to know about the place .
PS:This trick also works for anywhere .
This is a bit of a different one, but ask about their allergy policy.
A good restaurant who cares about their customers will have a strict policy in place and educate all staff on it. It should include using seperate knives, prep boards, and designating a specific staff member to check every ingredient while preparing that dish. They may also have a specific station. But they absolutely will have a policy and the wait staff should know it immediately.
A poor restaurant will have staff that ‘will go check’. Maybe they’re new? But it’s not a great sign.
Edit: a word.
Once I saw someone barfing outside of an Old Country Buffet. I thought that was an appropriate indication of what the food situation was inside.
I went to a Chinese food restaurant once, the “Happy Dragon”. When we got in, the place was empty save for one woman dining alone in a booth. There was no hostess or waiters around so my SO and I stood there for a while waiting to be seated and wondering what to do. We thought maybe they were in the back or something and they’d be out shortly.
About 5 minutes later, the woman in the booth stands up, wipes her mouth with a napkin, and then grabs 2 menus, walks over to us and says “Table for 2?”.
I think when you have to wait for the waitress to finish dining before you’re served, that’s a bad sign. Also it unsurprisingly was total s**t food and for too much money. One of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve ever had. BEWARE HAPPY DRAGON!
