Hey guys, just wanted to clear up that I didn’t leave any online reviews. I only did the 5* review in the video for entertaining purposes where I also show the full picture. No one is being misled don’t worry :)
What? I dont understand..i thought you said you want to give them 5 star review. So it's a fictional review?
Thanks, Taz!
@@yunichairani2117 for the video, she wanted to find something nice to say and give them five stars. but not on an actual review site, yes. because that would be good for the algorithm and misleading for many people not knowing the area.
Dear taz, Do a video on best reviewed restaurant which are affordable, hygiene and tasty!
Glad you added this comment, I was not sure if you were posting them somewhere as well as in the video but didn't love the idea of a bunch of 5* reviews floating around unearned
I don't understand the logic behind being nice to a bad place? People work hard for their money as well! They want to spend ot on something good and rewarding!! Giving those scammers a 5 stars is nothing but enabling bad businesses to keep going
I really don't think one 5* review amongst 100s of 1* review is going to sway anyone to go there but I agree, honest reviews are the only way to go.
Honestly the level of bad publicity they're getting here will probably get more exposure than the one five stars among the dozens of one stars
She didn't give them 5 stars online lol it was just on the video
@@MrEckybhoy other people do
I'll echo that, I think it's really dishonest of these TH-camrs to specifically aim to give 5 star reviews to these places. Give honest ones with a goal of 5 star if it really was that, but don't force a 5 star rating if it really wasn't. Not just at Taz, but other TH-camrs like Ryan Trahan too. However any comment on his videos will get drowned in the masses.
the way taz accepted her fate when she wasn't the one ordering anymore 😭
Hahahah ❤
she needs to stand up for herself more 😭
wow these places really don't deserve a five star review especially the last one
you're a warrior for eating that slaw 💀💀
Right 😅 it was like tinted yellow. Definitely off 😂
Whilst I understand the 'nice' intention of leaving good reviews - these places don't deserve good reviews if the food is truly that awful you're just going to cause more people to go to these places that frankly shouldnt be open and cause more bad reviews and unhappy people in the long run
I agree 💯
Exactly, people are too soft nowdays and it isn't a nice intention it's actually a stupid intention to leave a 5 star review in a place you didn't enjoy. People pleasing at its finest, so dumb. People need to know the truth of bad places
I'm hoping she didn't actually leave the reviews on Google
Exactly.
I just left a comment saying basically this!, they don't deserve 5 star don't leave it,,,
Omg the last place was kind of scary, the vibe was off 😭😭
Are people not paying attention? She didn't say she was posting the reviews online, it's only for the purpose of this video to find redeeming qualities in each of these places.
yeah people don't know how to listen properly. smh, receiving crap over nothing suxx. poor taz
Literally 0:50
She accusing people of being criminals ..without evidence...
people LOVE to complain omg
@@carlbode666 No she is NOT.......
I think the moral of the story is to stay away from uber touristy areas to eat! These places don't need repeat business - they survive off of tired and bewildered tourists wandering in and paying their exorbitant prices (for the quality of their food and service).
This is unfortunately how it goes, there's a enough places near me that have horrible food but they thrive because people need a quick bite. Like at the train station there's only bad food places but I end up buying food there anyway cause they are the only options and I'm busy
Honestly the wrong order in the first café that they brought out looked so much better than what you guys got in the end. Love your videos Taz! Always a source of comfort for me ❤️
Not if you're a vegetarian!
The last place... I felt like Taz was about to cry!!!!😂
Me too 😂😂😂
U guys must be talking abt the taj mahal tandoori. I wouldn't even eat there for free I think that scumbag just collects leftover food from other restaurants and microwaves them and charging rip off prices
Leaving 5 star reviews for these places is misleading for others who don’t know the area.
Honest reviews are the best reviews - Good or Bad
She commented that she didn’t leave any reviews online, it’s just for the video
She commented that she didn’t leave any reviews online, it’s just for the video
are people srsly this dull these days? it's obviously just for the video
The prices are absolutely WILD! Like I know it’s central London and tourist spots but WOW 😅 You really took one for the team here Taz - I’m not sure I “enjoyed” watching it because I felt so bad for you, but was absolutely entertaining 🤣 xx
Yeah I’m in London and eaten in some really good places for a lot less. You can get unlimited sushi and tempura for £17.50 at gauthier in January for a start.
Things like lasagna are never made from scratch in 10min, however, it doesn't mean it's not made from scratch. A lot of restaurant kitchens will get various items almost there and then finish them when an order comes in. That's also why some of the items may be out, especially later in the evening, because what was prepped for the day was completely used up and there literally isn't any left. It's also the same reason some restaurants make you order ahead for some menu items because the prep and cook times don't make it reasonable to make for immediate service
yeah lasagna would take hours otherwise
was looking for a comment like this, thanks. Goes to show the youtuber's absolute ignorance towards Italian cuisine and hospitality in general.
10:20 lasagna is never made from scratch in a restaurant unless you want to wait around for like 2 hours. Usually it’s premade and chilled then the chef will take a slice and dress it and cook it in the broiler very quickly
Taz is so wholesome! She is a joy to watch!
I hope youll delete your five-star reviews because they mess up algorithms. The last restaurant especially shouldnt even be in business. Ryan Trahan usually has positive experiences at the places he gives fuve stars. You had an awful experience especially in that Indian place.
That first place looks like a health and safety violation
She didn’t actually put them online, just for the video
It's clearly a fake review tf
In the UK, "Palace" suggests either football hooligans or low quality food.
Wow you’ve really put yourself out there for our entertainment in this one Taz! The Italian looked the best of the lot but still dodgy. These places obv rely on tourist who go in once blind and not repeat custom
I got chased with a mop😂😂😂😂
omg u need to make a storytime on tht lol
@@Tam974eva no I’m just repeating what one of the reviews was 😂😂😂😂
Lool, that made me cackle, I tried to imagine the situation
Tbh i hate the fact that tazz rated these restaurants as 5 stars, if you are uncomfortable with these things either just don't give a review or simply just don't put such content. Many people look at just review stars chart instead of reading whole comment.
Ps none of these places deserve more than 0.5 stars honestly.
I agree with you bur sadly this stupid 5 star reward for for very bed restorans it is a trend
@@viktorija214Cause people are too soft to say what they actually think 🤦I personally would have given 1 star review and left it at that, at least that will counteract the fake and untrue reviews
@@kjs4154 i agree wiht you
She commented that she didn’t leave any reviews online, it’s just for the video
@@pthk2874 that are good news,but i still do not like the trend
The 1st man looks so wholesome 🥺 I hope you left him a generous tip
For what? Serving shitty food? Tip culture is so toxic really, don't expect ANY tip from me if food was bad.
@gwenwifar ok
Not so much a part of the culture in the UK tbh
You have displayed such bravery in this one, Taz! I gagged at that last one.
hi taz! been watching you since your slam poetry days when i hit my rock bottom. i'm still watching you after so many years and i just want you to know that you're my comfort content creator and i'm sooo proud of you and how far you've come. it feels like we grew up together. your videos kept me going, thank you
Hello TAZ, I just found your channel and love the way you do the reviews! I had to join up looking forward to more videos, Take care.
Omg tazzzzzzzzzzzzzz! I just saw a recommended video from you been to long! Happy I see you again ❤️🔥
You used to be my favorite TH-camr years ago and I somehow lost your channel. Your video randomly popped up on my fyp and I’ve never been happier!!!
14:01 the guy is upselling - probably part of his job. you can say no if you did not want those orders
Hey Taz! An Italian here. Just wanted to say something about the lasagna (which looked horrible btw). 10:15 Even here in Italy if you order it at a restaurant it wouldn’t be “freshly” made, as in they don’t make it when you order it unless you want to wait 40 or more minutes. Usually you’d make a tray before (or in their case maybe single portions already) service, and give it the last few minutes of baking when the customer orders it.
That said, that one probably wasn’t freshly made that morning, but rather days ago or even frozen since who knows when
I was thinking the same thing. Idk if I've ever seen her make lasagna before so maybe she doesn't realize how long it takes. My son is actually in Italy with his dad & other mom right now & I'm so jealous but they're sending me lots of beautiful pictures. I do have a question for you. I am definitely not Italian but I really love to cook & when I make lasagna something I absolutely cannot compromise on is the pasta. I really do not like the typical supermarket no boil noodles, they don't get thick enough or have that lovely al dente bite so I don't use them, they also suck up way too much sauce & we spend a lot of time making & canning that sauce so I don't want to have to use double because of crap pasta. If I plan ahead I'll order fresh lasagna sheets because, well that's the best & there is absolutely nowhere to buy them in my area but if I don't have that as an option I look for a slow dried boil option, do you have a brand you recommend for dried lasagna pasta or any other recommendation, tips etc. I live in the United States in WA state, the Pacific Northwest
taz swearing even though its beeped out is AWESOME
swearing is just not what i imagine with taz it’s hilarious 🤣
IKR sages has hardly done that lately 😅
If you have dietary stuff like not eating pork and they serve you sausage and bacon, that's pretty bad. I can't imagine having food alergies. Ordering in restaurants already gives me anxiety, so I don't think I'd go near those places.
GOSH I LOVE UR VIDEOS! Was really waiting for a video of u to pop up, AND FINALLY! ure like my comfort person, love uuuuu
15 minutes of feeling relaxed and calm when I see a knew video from you drop.
Love this video! Pls do another one. It was really entertaining to watch:)
7:12 I- I.... have no words. You guys are so brave for doing this and spending a fortune I COULD NEVER!!! 😫
Tell me anything better than being upset all day then finding out taz posted a video love your vids so so much taz you literally made my day honestly I was not having a great day you made my whole day ❤
i wish you would post more often , i feel like i just watch your old videos over and over
Yayy! I really wanted you to do this kind of a video!!
could swear this was underrated hijabis video… down to the places she went and everything
wow it’s almost like they live in the same city 😱😱😱
@@neocinna i live in london and know a million places rated 1 star. These are exactly the same places. London is massive, bffr 💀
@@Aaleeyuh so do i? and these would obviously be the lowest rated ones….. so if we use logic……. they’re gonna be the same ones….. that’s crazy 🤯
legit thought the same😂 even the pictures everything was the same at least underratedhijabi confronted the indian man about the extra charges
@@Aaleeyuhcan you give some places lol i want try other places and see if they’re actually really bad
Hihii, I'm Italian and my uncle used to run a lasagna restaurant (till he passed) and I'm just gonna tell you how they did it. They would prepare insane amounts of lasagna from scratch, to last a week lets say (the pasta, sauce, meat... you name it) they would ensamble, cook and freeze and it tasted absolutely delicious. Not saying I know how that london restaurant works but lasagna can be made from scratch and frozen and it'd take like 10 minutes to heat up without it being a scam.
No way you can make lasagne to order. It has to be precooked.
@zenabraithwaite1934 exactly, it goes into the oven, and then it's frozen
You're so good Taz. I loved this vlog!! Love from Cardiff 😆 xxx
Love this could you do it again at 1 star places but read the reviews after your experience? So you go in with a blind eye ? Loved this x
Bless you Taz taking one for the team here for sure XD
It is very brave to eat in any of these places. To pay silly prices for edible food is one thing, but to pay for inedible food is just ridiculous and these places should shut down. Those cookies have probably been there for a year as there is no way of knowing. I hope you and your friend weren't ill.
Around 12:10 blurs on people's face don't work, they start to move.
Underrated hijab went to these places too. 😊
Ohh I was wondering why the Indian place and the receipt looked so familiar!
I saw that! Kinda weird she made the exact same video…
I feel that this was really counterproductive. Giving places with poor service, and scam-like behaviour 5 stars is just going to result in others being duped into supporting these places. You would have been better giving a genuine review and star rating - but gone out of your way to say something positive.
She literally said she did not post the actual review.
@@hadjbadj9169yes, that was 4 days ago. This was 6 days ago.
learn to think. it’s a joke for the video, she didn’t post any reviews. npc ahh commenter
@hadjbadj9169 her comment about that was done like 5 days ago, this was posted 7 days ago.
@@wolfzmusic9706 she even said it in the video. clearly everyone’s got shit for brains
Some of these places are fronts for other things which is why the food and service is so bad but they are able to stay in business
I'm glad you didn't actually leave these false reviews online for others to be fooled by.
Taz stop with these 1 star terrible places i know it's good for views but go for 5 stars and treat yourself 👍
Yesss!! I'd love to see a 5 star place
Yeah she shouldn't be wasting her money on them and they don't deserve the business
Only been to the UK once, but the number of times I received food that tasted like a reheated frozen meal was more than I can count on just one hand. I never understood the US's obsession with chain restaurants until I ate food at random places in the UK.
You were unlucky to go to bad restaurants. We have amazing restaurants in the UK, ESPECIALLY in London!
Great video taz!
Brilliant vlogging idea, Taz. Well done!
Oh my God, I'm watching this from Russia and it surprises me, because we are doing well with food and everything in this regard. Our staff works so well to get their tips, people know what to give them. And it didn't feel comfortable watching this video.
Bless you for putting yourself through that awkwardness ❤😂
First time seeing your videos and Im subscribing because I loveee your personality. these restaurants were very…. interesting
i love your inspiration from Ryan, i love his videos so much 😂
I am 62, and I promise you Taz, that bloody food is older then me. Great video 😅
You shouldnt have given them 5 star review
You are engcouraging them to be that bad
She commented that she didn’t leave any reviews online, it’s just for the video
That third place was like something from the twilight zone, I would of had an anxiety attack in there 🤣
This was a good one. Shoutout to you for being brave enough to try low-rated restaurants.
I missed you 😍 binging now
Oh no this was making me so anxious for you, thanks for trying Taz
16:26 nope wouldn’t be leaving a place a 5 star review that doesn’t deserve it 😬 the places need to raise their standards
You are braver than myself 😅 I would have bounced from those restaurants real quick!
Stop giving places ratings that they dont deserve because you want to be nice. They could literally kill someone if unhygienic and serving someone pork thar cant have it for religious or ethical reasons is NOT a minor issue. They are getting shit reviews because they deserve them and they shouldn't be in business.
instead of writing a paragraph and acting butthurt over a youtube video, use some critical thinking !!!! she didn’t post any reviews, they’re a joke for the video. acting all entitled and like u know everything is so ironic. T H I N K
@@neocinna I’m losing my mind in these comments. Even without reading her pinned comment, it was easily understandable she didn’t actually leave the review. Why are people like thisssss
@@takeyat8840 RIGHT ITS SO ANNOYING …… proof that everyone on the internet is just a yapping npc and no one is real ✨
🙂You are a breath of fresh air!
Now go to the best restaurants that don’t charge you so much and give great portions sizes. So many desi restaurants it’s hard to tell which is good or bad
Strong arm tactics from the last guy. He suggests rice, then upsells it to two because the portions are small, then suggests you get naan as well. I don’t know about you, but when I eat Indian, I go the rice route OR I go the naan route. Same in many cuisines. Eg China has rice in the rice growing areas and bread in the wheat growing areas, and the whole diet and local cuisine hinges on what the staple carb is.
I'm pretty sure that the last place is at least evading taxes as crazy. But also might be a front company for some kind of criminal organisation.
I am a people pleaser, but I just couldn't give a five star review. I was brought up with the adage of "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." If something was particularly bad, then it would have had to be a bad review, I'm afraid. They just don't deserve and five star reviews. Giving them one diminishes the value of the places that do provide a good experience.
its a youtube video. the places have all bad reviews, one good one will not change anyones mind to go there.
people JESUS THE F CHRIST she didn't rate the restaurants online, just in the video she tried to say something nice
I'm sure I went to the first place about 6 years back. I remember it being ok, I only had a jacket potato with beans and/or cheese though...
8:32 OH MY GOD! I have been past this restaurant before. I remember the men there just kept asking people to eat at their restaurant, and a few people agreed, but it mostly looked empty and quite a lot weren't interested 😬
Im so confused why these places stay in business
I think in this case they really don't deserve a 5 star review, even if you want to be nice, they just really DON'T deserve it, they should close down 😅
Also in the first restaurant to reason it looks different is because they still have Christmas decorations up
Is the Rosso Italiano one the one near Steak and Co near Leicester Square?
If so, I remember I was deciding to go to that or Steak and Co. with my girlfriend, I decided on Steak and Co. and feel good about my decision now.
The guys just aggressively changing your order and you just agreeing 😂😂😂😭😩
The “he’s a rat” comment definitely made sense now
Love these type of videos. u should do more
I was in Amsterdam recently and was shocked at the amount of places with 1-2 stars on Google, I'm pretty sure 90% of the waffles had been in the window for a week
1:32 brings back memories to your older videos, constant swearing hahahaha 😂
The prices are about right considering the location, but that doesn’t excuse the sub par food
14:41 his picture in the back is killing me
The variety of dishes is impressive, I liked the dishes and the presentation of the video
Please don't give 5 stars to horrible places. You will give false positives and people will spend their hard earned money to get the horrible experience which you encountered
it’s for comedic purposes she didn’t post any reviews. getting butthurt over a youtube video is loser activities
You should have check the pinned comment first
@@neocinna they were just informing her
Gordon Ramsey NEEDED in London ! ❤ Also I’d love a whetherspoons reviews across different areas- could be difficult however I noticed most cities have at least two and they are always so different in food specifically quality. Recent one was Swansea and the difference even on how the carpet and bar looked and amount of staff- wow- you could have a quiet whetherspoons hangover morning but not great quality despite price or the loud nearer the clubs fully booked place but better generally! We went quiet-got through it lol!
taz this is so off topic but where do you get ur eyebrows done - or does anyone know where she gets them done? bc they look amazing and can't find good brow places anywhere
Taz....literally risking it all to get the job done. 😂💪🏽. Dedication baby!!!! I ❤ it.
🤣 absolutely!! I felt bad just watching her go into these places!
Everything looked minging tbh... 😳...the prices are at rocious... Ryan Tehran is brilliant at these kind of videos & yous both have that same " kind of awkwardness"... 😅😅great video TAZ...x
I'm at the point now where I pretty much won't go into a place until I check the Google reviews first. Just a bit harder when you're overseas
the last one…bruh
I was literally flabbergasted
basically the same exact video/resturants as Underrated Hijabi
LITERALLY THE SAME.
haha I remember when you and moon did this in Cardiff I think still one of my fav vids
I don’t think places that bad should get a 5 star review as a generosity because they aren’t putting in the effort to deserve it and it’s deceiving to people reading reviews. You are so sweet and I get why you did it. I just don’t think it’s accurate to the level of service and product.
Second one seems like more of a resturant racket. Like guys up front, placing you outside for appearances, proba ly a actual mircowaved meal and tall prices for stuff like water. t least the Bruschetta was nice
I LOVE YOU TAZ!!!!
are yall serious obviously
her reviews are youtube purpose only and she didnt leave actual reviews to mislead people, love her videos❤
Girl your skin is glowing :)
omg i would love to see you do this type of video again, but collaborate with underrated hijabi
Is this is a re-upload video? I'm sure I've watched this before...
A different youtuber did these exact restaurants
@@purplevoncreep9920 Cool. Do you happen to know the other youtuber's name?
@@carly58696 it's something like ordinary hijab, she goes to all 3 restaurants and even some of the filler shots are similar (going into the bathroom in the first restaurant, panning over the menu)
@@purplevoncreep9920 You're right! I have watched that video before so that's where I've got confused. Thanks :)
