The
NYT printed one beat-down of a review for Guy Fieri's new restaurant in Times
Square. Here is a sampling:
"Did
you notice that the menu was an unreliable predictor of what actually came to
the table?"
"How did nachos, one of the hardest dishes in the
American canon to mess up, turn out so deeply unlovable?"
"Why did the toasted marshmallow taste like fish?
I gagged while reading this review. I thought Guy had a respect for food
that has integrity; even if it is a pulled-pork sandwich. He seems to celebrate
good-quality food on his show Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.
Well, the place has a gift shop and is in the right location for the
tourists that think Red Lobster and Applebee's is fine dining. It will make
some cute coin for about a year and close up shop.
Hey, ya remember when Emeril Lagasse was the
man?
The Village Voice found some more shade thrown at the restaurant. I have to wonder if Guy was even there for the first few weeks.

Sounds like he attached his name to something but didn't go into the trenches to make sure things were working. The toasted marshmallow tasted like fish? *GAG!* The kitchen is in disarray and chef is not in control.
