Shitty of Angels

Silverlake Craft Fair
Los Angeles, CA
"It's pretty shitty."




Haifa Restaurant
Los Angeles, CA
"The staff's stares, whispers, stink eye, and intimated finger pointing was annoying and exceedingly intolerant. The food was overpriced and substandard. Lots of Israeli pickles, bland meats, and fresh vegetables sadly drowned to death in soupy tahini. Shitty food, shitty people, shitty prices, shitty dining experience."

Aju Travel & Tours
Los Angeles, CA
"If you want to be pissed off wasting half a trip making 100+ mile detours to switch buses so they can save money, then please go with Aju.
If you love to go to shitty hotels and shitty restaurants and spend a lot of travel time going to said shitty hotels and restaurants, then please go with Aju.
If you want the owner of the business to walk out on you to hightail it to his car while you're trying to ask him why they do any of the above, then please go with Aju."

Cora's Mexican Food
Culver City, CA
(Note from the Blog Editor: This is long, but it is worth the read.)
"Cora was an example of a too highly efficient waitress. Before the last word of whatever I was saying to her would be out of my mouth, she'd already walked away. Although my b/f and I were not overtly rude to her in any way, we did talk about how bad the food was to each other. I'm assuming Battleaxe Cora overheard us and got a bee in her bonnet about it. When check time came, she came over to us, slammed the check down and walked away in a huff. The check had the word FREE written on it in large letters. When I asked her what it was she snidely spelled the word out for me. At that point, I was like F--- this b----, let's roll. But my b/f felt bad for some odd reason (why? shitty food and a shitty attitude??) and wanted to leave some money, so we did. I was the last one out of the restaurant (since my b/f decided to hightail it out ASAP) and as I was walking away I heard Cora behind me yelling What is this? I turned around to see her waving my money at me. I tried to be nice and tell her we had to leave her something and she drew herself up to her full 4'8" and yelled Don't argue with me ma'am! Is not nice and threw the money at me and walked away."

I kept waving my hand in front of my face to see if it was me or something.

Diamond Appliance Service
Chicago, IL
"When the hooberedoober breaks, you might just be fucked."




Wendy's
Chicago, IL
(Note from Blog Editor: All comments related to the same physical store.)
"I was NOT amused by the way one staff member manhandled my frosties (2 of them, but only one was for me.) She looked so piissssssssssed and was shaking the shit out of those poor cups before nearly throwing them at me. With that said, let me also state, that in retrospect, it was hilarious to watch her violently shake two cups and then move in front of me to block my view of the dairy abuse. I will be back, but only when they have their premium fish fillets again."

"This place is awful. The employees are some of the most moronic individuals I have ever seen in my life."

"I'm tired of this place. Every time I am in here the wait is ridiculous. This time I stood in line 15 minutes. There were three people in front of me. I like to think I'm patient, gentle, and kind so after this (almost) uncontrollable rage began to build up inside of me I knew I had to leave. All I did was stand. There was about 12 of us in line. We were just standing. Not moving. Not talking. Hardly breathing. Everyone behind the counter seemed to be moving in slow motion. I kept waving my hand in front of my face to see if it was me or something. Nope. While the rest of us in the real world moved at normal speed there was some kind of time distortion behind the counter."

P.S. Fuck You

Ray's Deli
New York, NY
"I went in this morning for a sausage, egg, and cheese. The three guys across the line started repeating 'sausage, egg, and cheese' over and over and giggling up a storm. I smiled wondering what was so funny and just kind of went along with it, smirking, wondering what they were laughing at. I don't KNOW if they did anything to my food because I didn't see... I returned to my office space which is directly across the street. I happened to turn and look over at the store and all three idiots were laughing hysterically and looking at me. I threw out the sandwiches. I didn't even feed them to the dog.
p.s.
Fuck You."

Z's Oyster Bar & Steakhouse
Indianapolis, IN
"We then moved on to an Iceberg Wedge salad. The head of lettuce was clearly past it's prime, the center had yellowed and was bitter. For dinner, I ordered scallops, only to learn that they were sold out. I then moved on to walu, and what do you know, sold out again! I finally settled on choice three, ono. Then we waited on the main course. And waited, and waited. After more than 40 minutes, our main server approached the table and said, 'Well, did anyone save room for dessert?' No joke, she assumed that we'd not only already been served dinner, but the plates had been cleared. Naturally, we voiced our frustration to this very red-faced person and she finally served our meals a few minutes later."

Do not eat here unless you are considering ending your life.

Tequilas (Now Closed)
Danvers, MA
"Do not eat here unless you are considering ending your life."


The Penalty Box
Providence, RI
"I repeat.. this is a shitty DIVE.. not a club."
"... when we finally left I walked up to the owner and said 'you guys treated me like an asshole.. this is the worst bar I have ever been to and I'm never coming back.'"
"Stay away.. stay far away. Go to the E&O tap, the scurvy dog, or jesus I can't believe I'm saying this but ANYWHERE downtown.. stay away from this place.. it suuuuuuuuucks."

Italia Pizza and Restaurant
Brooklyn, NY
"10 minutes became another 10 minutes, this better be DAMN good pizza, and i know it doesn't take that long cause i saw the doughs were prepared already. i waited 45 minutes in there and i got a '2 more minutes' of course that became an extra 5-10 minutes. THIS BETTER BE THE BEST FUCKING PIZZA OF MY LIFE! Running a pizzeria should be an honest business! if you wanted to run a dishonest one, go sell drugs. as far as im concerned THEY SHOULD BE IN JAIL!"

Cafe Nuovo
Providence, RI
"The shitty table really bothered us."

Tasted like sewage smells.

I Love Mexico Bar & Grille
Providence, RI
"I would rather eat out of the garbage."
"Tasted like sewage smells."
"DON'T EAT HERE!"

Cha Cha Cha
San Francisco, CA
"The host, a 55 year old skinny caucasian gentleman, is an asshole. An unapologetic, rude, snippy, asshole. Cha Cha Cha? Don't don't don't."

Jamms Restaurant
Mystic, CT
"What a dive. It is like a really bad hotel restaurant: dirty, still smells like cigs years after the smoking ban, horrible food. You know what the grub is like, a college cafeteria. Or if a Chili's was a meth den. Worst BLT ever. Only to be topped by the double worst nachos ever, the 'spiced chili beef' tastes like plastic. Rancid plastic. And the chips were stale. And the guac was brown. And the salsa was watery. Repugnant. The water tasted like chlorine."

Pizza Pie-ER
Providence, RI
"Total poop. A T-Rex couldn't chew this crust. Not cheap. Worse than Dominoes. They have had a 'Help Wanted' sign in the window for half a decade. I think their pizza wrote it, and wants help because it realizes it is fucking terrible. Fellini's is two blocks away. Go there."

Nordstrom EBar
Providence, RI
"So, I ask them, before I order if they have espresso cups 'for here.' Generally that's shorthand for 'not paper.' When my shot emerges from behind the machine. It was presented in a flimsy little paper cup. You know, like they have at the dentist. After asking for my 'for here' cup, I was told paper was all they had. Peh."
