You know, as a kid, I always looked up
0:09
to Chef Ramsey.
0:10
Where's the lamb sauce? Where's the lamb
0:13
sauce?
0:14
And one of my favorite shows from him
0:16
was Kitchen Nightmares.
0:18
Oh my god, look dead. You paid for the
0:21
exterminator.
0:22
Bullshitting little [ __ ] Now, as a
0:24
kid, I wanted to know if the restaurants
0:26
he was going to were really that bad, or
0:29
was it all for show. So, I went
0:31
undercover to some of the worst rated
0:33
restaurants in my city to try their
0:34
food. But what they don't know is I'm
0:36
actually going to be in disguise as a
0:38
Michelin star chef. So, we're going to
0:40
be rating these restaurants based on
0:42
cleanliness, appearance, and taste.
0:48
So, here are just some of the bad
0:50
reviews this place has gotten. Worst
0:52
service and food ever. Zero customer
0:55
service skills at this restaurant. One
0:57
star. I'm so disappointed. First, I
1:00
ordered the perogis with bacon and
1:01
onions and sour cream. They were awful.
1:03
I used to love ordering from there, but
1:05
never again. So, we had one person say
1:07
the food was bad and another person say
1:09
the customer service is bad. We need to
1:11
get to the bottom of this. Now, first
1:13
impressions just based off the sign
1:15
alone is they clearly do a lot more than
1:18
just pizza. But I mean, hey, let's let's
1:20
find out. Now, with the food paid for,
1:22
we need to see if Diamond Pizza is truly
1:25
worth one star or will they be redeemed
1:27
today? Now, I can see what they meant by
1:29
more because look at how many things are
1:32
on this menu. How are you going to be
1:34
good at this many things? Now, first
1:36
impressions of Diamond Pizza is, I got
1:38
to say, it was kind of rund down. I
1:40
can't lie. The atmosphere was kind of
1:42
depressing. Nobody was in there. We had
1:45
some old pizza sitting there that looked
1:47
like it's been sitting there for days.
1:49
And just after waiting 15 minutes, my
1:51
food was ready. So, let's start this
1:53
review. This is the only place that
1:55
we're going to where we can't actually
1:56
dine in. So, for now, we will be dining
1:58
in uh the car, but the reviews stay the
2:01
same. First, I guess what we'll do is
2:03
we'll grade the place based on
2:05
cleanliness. What did you think of the
2:06
place? What how do you think of it? Was
2:07
it clean?
2:08
A cleanliness, I would give it a 2 out
2:10
of 10.
2:10
It's a pizza joint. So, like, you know,
2:12
you go to like a New York style pizza
2:14
joint, you got a couple little rats
2:15
running around York doesn't mean the
2:17
pizza's [ __ ] I feel like of all places
2:19
to be, you know, ass, a pizza place
2:22
makes sense. It looked like those pizzas
2:24
were sitting in there for a long time.
2:26
But without further ado, let's just get
2:27
straight to it. All right, so first
2:28
impressions of the pizza. Doesn't look
2:30
bad. I'm not going to lie. I'm a very
2:32
Listen, man. I know Keith Lee. Like, I'm
2:34
not as critical. I honestly think it
2:36
looks pretty good. It's a little cold.
2:40
Good Ben. And it looks like a good New
2:41
York style pizza.
2:45
Okay, I see the problem here. Appearance
2:46
of the pizza, I'm going to give it 3 and
2:48
1/2 bul out of five. Now, the pizza
2:51
itself, let's rate the taste. It tastes
2:52
like it's been here for a couple days.
2:55
Let's just say that. The cheese feels
2:56
like it's been fermenting. It's not
2:59
really doughy. It's not fresh. It's
3:00
definitely not fresh. Okay, here's what
3:02
I'm going to say. If you've ever had
3:03
pizza at 7-Eleven, I hope you haven't,
3:06
but if if you have, it tastes like a
3:08
7-Eleven pizza.
3:11
Yeah, I'm going to eat it cuz I love
3:12
pizza and I'm hungry, but looks like
3:14
it's been sitting there for a little
3:15
bit. Maybe a little fermented. The taste
3:18
I would just rate it like maybe a two
3:19
out of five.
3:20
Damn. Ashie eats it. Next up
3:23
is the hamburger. How can you ruin a
3:25
hamburger, right? It smells decent.
3:29
Okay. When I asked for the burger, he's
3:31
like, "Do you want the homemade one or
3:33
you want the regular one?" And I was
3:34
like, "Yo, what does that mean? Does
3:36
would they not all be homemade?"
3:38
Honestly, once again, you got a little
3:40
bit of toast there. See that? It's It's
3:43
just giving me like the bare minimum.
3:45
It's not It's not trying to be special.
3:47
It's not trying to be [ __ ] It's just
3:48
trying to be the regular.
3:51
Look at this patty. The patty is like
3:54
still frozen. Look at this. So, for one,
3:56
obviously the patty is frozen. I assumed
3:59
he meant that when he said the regular
4:01
burger. You would think that you would
4:02
cook it at least. Yeah, it just tastes
4:04
frozen. Soggy appearance, not bad. I'm
4:08
going to be real with you guys. This
4:09
isn't good. It's not horrible either. I
4:12
would easily go to McDonald's any day
4:14
instead of this. It's just like craft
4:15
singles on a frozen bun. I think this
4:17
would be worse than the pizza for sure.
4:19
Scratch the regular burger and make the
4:21
homemade burger the regular burger. I'm
4:23
going to give it three out of five bal.
4:26
I don't know about you, but it kind of
4:27
smells like throw up in the car. Oh my
4:29
god. They included some garlic bread, of
4:32
course. Here's the garlic bread. It
4:34
looks storebought. Look at that. Zoom in
4:37
on that. I'm going to be real. Not bad.
4:40
It's not great, though. Something tells
4:41
me it's not going to be as bad as the
4:43
spaghetti.
4:45
Okay, let's just dig in. I'm shaking.
4:50
The sauce, it's very bland. Bland. Dry.
4:53
Dry.
4:54
Bland. Dry. Dry.
4:55
Dry. Bland as anything. You just bland.
4:58
How's our signature dish? Bland as
5:00
Let's try these. The meatballs. Couldn't
5:03
even give me full meatballs. He got to
5:04
He had to slice that [ __ ] It looks like
5:06
dog food. Let's get in here.
5:11
Okay, so the spaghetti was the worst.
5:14
This tastes frozen and it doesn't smell
5:16
appealing.
5:18
Doesn't look appealing. I'm going to
5:19
give this one two out of five bal. Yeah,
5:21
overall Diamond's Pizza and Grill was
5:24
not good. I'm going to give the overall
5:26
appearance of the uh establishment two
5:29
out of five bal. You get two bal because
5:31
the pizza looked good and your place is
5:33
about pizza. Uh service of the place,
5:35
I'm going to give it a uh I would say
5:37
like three and a half bulals out of
5:39
five. Now, as for taste, I'm going to
5:41
give Diamond Pizza and Grill two out of
5:43
five bal. Back to you. Thanks, Bal. So,
5:46
did they deserve the one-star rating?
5:48
Let's be honest, it definitely was not
5:50
five-star. What I will say, their pizza
5:53
was mid. So maybe if they just stuck to
5:56
pizza, keep it as diamond pizza, not
5:58
diamond spaghetti, not diamond burgers,
6:00
then maybe we can turn that one star to
6:02
a high two. Maybe.
6:09
Next on our list is Afy's Grill. Let's
6:11
take a look at some of the reviews they
6:13
got. Absolutely miserable place with
6:15
horrible service. The rest of our food
6:17
took over 90 minutes to arrive and the
6:19
chicken was raw. One star. Chicken was
6:22
dry. Waitress forgot our food twice. I
6:25
would not recommend this place. One
6:27
star. I am disgusted and appalled by
6:30
this restaurant. There was a bug in my
6:32
food and the manager accused me of lying
6:34
and saying it's black pepper. I'm pretty
6:37
sure I can differentiate between a black
6:39
pepper and a bug. Last time I checked,
6:41
black pepper doesn't have arms and legs
6:43
and moves. It's a fair enough statement
6:45
between raw chicken and a bug in my
6:47
food. Those are two of like one of my
6:49
biggest fears while eating. So, I really
6:51
hope that does not happen.
6:54
Oh, wow. It is. Wow. Now, first
6:57
impressions on this place. It was
6:58
actually kind of nice. I can't lie. You
7:00
know, you had your nice little
7:01
chandeliers. You had a nice little bit
7:03
of ambient music. But is their customer
7:05
service and their food good? Or even
7:08
after such a beautiful place, will it be
7:11
ruined by trash food? Let's find out.
7:13
Now, the first thing that I noticed is
7:15
once we were seated, it took a solid 15
7:18
minutes to be even asked if we want a
7:20
drink. I would understand if no one came
7:22
to talk to us for 15 minutes if the
7:24
place was packed, but no one was there.
7:26
So, why it takes 15 minutes to even ask
7:29
if we want water is crazy. But just a
7:31
little after that, he finally came.
7:33
After about 40 minutes, our food finally
7:36
arrived. Don't get me wrong, 40 minutes
7:38
is not bad. But once again, take in.
7:41
We're the only people who have ordered
7:43
food.
7:43
So far, everything's been good. I
7:45
actually have no complaints so far,
7:47
except for the fact that it took a
7:49
century to get this. Do you have Coke?
7:51
Zero. Did you guys have the Coke?
7:52
Coke or Diet Coke?
7:53
Diet Coke. Yeah. Yeah.
7:54
I still haven't got my Coke and just the
7:56
Coke.
7:57
Yeah.
8:01
Cleanliness of the place definitely like
8:04
five bows out of five I'd say.
8:06
Appearance also very good. This doesn't
8:08
look the best. This looks like frozen
8:11
fries.
8:13
I mean fries are fries. Mashed potatoes
8:15
are a little uh stiff.
8:18
Not horrible. Needs some salt. Now let's
8:21
check the chicken. A lot of people said
8:22
the chicken was raw. Let's hope not.
8:26
Oh wow. It is. Wow. Is that pink?
8:30
Is that pink, guys? Let me know in the
8:32
comments.
8:36
So, the chicken's pink a little bit.
8:39
No cap. Not good. Mashed potatoes fries
8:41
are good. Mashed potatoes kind of taste
8:43
like frozen. Same with the fries,
8:45
though. The chicken is pink, guys. I
8:47
cannot make that up as I continue to eat
8:49
it. Side of veggies.
8:52
The veggies are definitely frozen, but
8:57
I feel like as soon as I put the chef's
8:58
hat on, the guy started calling people
9:01
and now he looks like he's tweaking. I
9:03
almost feel like I have to eat it to be
9:04
like polite. Next is the beef ribs.
9:11
I'm going to be so [ __ ] for real. The
9:14
ribs are pretty good. I would just not
9:15
get the veggies, but ribs pretty good.
9:18
It doesn't taste like they made them. I
9:20
wouldn't go out of my way to get them. I
9:21
was disappointed in the chicken. I can't
9:23
lie. But the ribs are good. I would rate
9:24
the ribs like three balance out of five.
9:27
The reason why it's not a four or a
9:28
five. It tastes like it's been like like
9:30
when I've made ribs in the past and I
9:32
put it in the fridge and [ __ ] and then I
9:34
eat it like maybe 3 days later. That's
9:37
kind of what it's like. But the the meat
9:38
is very tender. The back doesn't look
9:40
appealing. But it's not about what's in
9:42
the back. Just look at the front.
9:43
Okay. Afy's Barn Grill. Let's get to it.
9:45
Let's start with service. It's just one
9:47
guy. I don't know where the chef is. I
9:49
would say that one guy is not enough,
9:51
but we're also the only people here, so
9:54
I think one person's enough. He's not
9:56
really checking on us, but he's not rude
9:58
either. So, I'm gonna say three out of
10:00
five bal for service. Next is appearance
10:03
and cleanliness. Honestly, really good.
10:06
I'm going to give it five out of five
10:08
bal. The place looks cool as [ __ ] I
10:11
feel like this is the type of place you
10:12
need like shisha. Clean as well. There's
10:14
not dirt. Someone said that there was a
10:16
bug. I don't know if I believe that.
10:17
Now, on to taste. The ribs I would give,
10:20
like I said, three out of five bal. The
10:22
chicken, the chicken was raw. Was it
10:24
super raw? No, just a little. Just a
10:27
little hint. The sides were basic. All
10:29
frozen, of course. And you know me,
10:31
that's something that me and my daddy uh
10:33
Gordon Ramsay have in common. We hate
10:36
frozen. Don't get the chicken. Chicken's
10:38
not good. I don't know why I did. Please
10:40
subscribe. I think they're being a
10:41
little bit too harsh. I don't think this
10:43
is a onestar restaurant. Yeah. Honestly,
10:47
I got to say I don't think it was one
10:49
star. Ribs were busting. Chicken a
10:51
little undercooked, but we've all been
10:53
there. I got to say the customer service
10:55
could be improved, but this next place
10:58
is definitely not better.
11:05
So, next on the list is Wing Machine.
11:07
And I think this one might be the worst.
11:09
I found a dead roach in my food. Very
11:12
disturbing. Disgusting. Dead insect in
11:15
food. Made me sick. One star. Ordered a
11:17
double bacon burger today. Burger was
11:19
freezer burned. Couldn't eat it.
11:21
Needless to say, will not order from
11:24
this place again. One star. Not fit for
11:27
dog food. And his profile picture is a
11:29
dog. I was shocked at how bad these
11:32
wings were. 90% of the wing was hard as
11:35
bone. Oh, and cold. He just had to slide
11:38
that one in. One star. The staff are hit
11:41
and miss. One or two of the guys are
11:43
nice. The rest seem to absolutely hate
11:45
it there. Something is wrong with the
11:46
food in this place. You're also
11:48
surrounded by mirrors inside, and I
11:50
often find myself looking into them and
11:53
asking myself what the [ __ ] I'm doing
11:56
eating there again. So, this guy's
11:57
having an existential crisis by eating
11:59
Wing Machine's food. Let's please find
12:01
out if it's really that bad. Now, first
12:03
impressions of Wing Machine is kind of
12:05
rundown, but that doesn't mean that the
12:07
food's bad. And I hope the food is good
12:09
because little does he know he is
12:11
serving one of the best chefs in
12:14
Toronto. Now when I was given the chance
12:15
I had to take a look at the bathroom to
12:17
really understand and get a full
12:19
inspection of this place. Bathroom was
12:21
not the best I got to say. Now after
12:24
returning from the bathroom, my food was
12:26
finally ready. So I got started with my
12:28
review. Delicious. Appearance good.
12:31
Let's check out this flop. Not bad.
12:36
Appearance, I'm gonna give it three out
12:37
of five. Balos. Taste better than the
12:40
last place. Better than Diamond Pizza.
12:42
They got it. Taste, I'm gonna say three
12:44
and a half, honestly. Thank you, sir.
12:46
No,
12:46
thank you.
12:48
Were you making beef?
12:49
Yeah, I do uh food reviews. Do you know
12:51
Chef Ramsey?
12:53
I heard
12:54
I was uh his apprentice. I would say um
12:57
pizza three and a half. Overall
13:00
presentation is good. Let's move on to
13:02
uh the burger. The wings. Let's start
13:03
with the wings. This was the half pound.
13:05
We uh got five wings here. This was the
13:07
mild sauce. I'm terrified. This is where
13:11
things just got really awkward because
13:14
the guy who cooked the food literally
13:16
walked over and he stood and stared at
13:19
me. Do you know how awkward it is to try
13:21
to do a review on somebody's food while
13:23
the guy sitting there like this?
13:26
This is the mild sauce. Presentation
13:28
good. It's a good thick wing. Hot. Nice.
13:32
It might be too hot actually. Let's uh
13:33
take a bite in here.
13:37
Classic wing. I'm going to give the
13:39
presentation of this four out of five.
13:40
Bal, not bad. This is where things get a
13:43
little bit intense. So, here's the
13:45
burger. It's a little soggy. Uh
13:47
appearance, not the best. I'm going to
13:50
say that this is um two out of five
13:52
bullets.
13:57
The bun is a little bit stale. Uh, not
14:00
my favorite, but the condiments and the
14:02
sauces on it are good. I will say the
14:04
wings were definitely the best. Overall,
14:06
I would say not bad. The burger is bad,
14:08
though. Okay, so that was probably the
14:10
most awkward moment I've had ever
14:12
filming. Do you know what it's like to
14:14
try to critique a man's food, honestly,
14:17
while he's literally standing behind the
14:19
camera watching you? Like, that was that
14:21
was really tough. So, now it's time to
14:22
give my honest review. First off, no
14:25
roaches. As far as appearance of the
14:27
place, it was pretty rundown. I can't
14:29
complain about the service. The guy was
14:31
nice. I'm gonna give the service five
14:32
out of five bal. Long story short, the
14:35
pizza was not bad. I would say the pizza
14:37
was three out of five bal. The wings
14:39
were probably the best, but I will say
14:41
with these wings, they were frozen for
14:44
sure. A little bit soggy, you could say.
14:47
Me personally, I like a crispy wing.
14:48
Now, this is where I can't lie to you
14:51
guys. The burger was ass. Bread was
14:53
stale. But the worst part, the meat was
14:56
like frozen again, but it wasn't like
14:59
grilled. It was almost like boiled. Like
15:01
the patty was boiled. That's the best
15:03
way to describe it. It wasn't grilled.
15:05
So, what was it? But I'm going to give
15:06
the burger a 2 out of five bal. Also,
15:08
the cleanliness of the place was not the
15:10
best, but the people were nice. So, I
15:12
will say that. And there you have it.
15:14
The worst rated restaurants in my city.
15:16
Now, if you guys want me to come to your
15:18
city and check out some of your guys'
15:20
[ __ ] food, then drop a comment down
15:22
below. Another thing to note is you
15:24
probably should not go to a bunch of
15:26
one-star rated restaurants all in the
15:28
same day.
15:30
Yeah.
