Poor service and disorganized plating
If your food is served with anything else on top other than what you ordered, like…let’s say a hair, a bug or a piece of plastic, you have all the right to grab your things and simply walk out the door. After all, what better warning sign that you’re in a bad restaurant than something in your food? Well, another pretty clear sign that you’re in the wrong eatery is the way the food is put on the plate, says Guinn.
A jumbled plating served with inappropriate side dishes just shows that the staff preparing and serving the food is not truly invested in their jobs. No matter how tasty the food, poor plating, and service will prevent the customer from enjoying the dining experience to the fullest. In addition, if the ordered dishes are not timed properly, or the gap between firsts and mains is too long and the servers are downright ignoring you, you’re in a restaurant you should probably never visit again.
