@@whiteking8341 in nearly every 3* restaurant they pay attention to a LOT of details... be it from the way you wear your watch (which indicates if you're left or right handed) resulting in the way your cutlery is setup to well, the water...
The first restaurant sounded so expensive at first, but after he went through the 2nd and 3rd one, the first is the only one that worth it. Third one look like it has the most delicious food though.
no your dad buying you a good time when you turn 18 is an experience. what really trips me out tho is people that pay this kind of money for mid food at best while your sitting down doing nothing and calling it an experience is what tickles me.@@getjuiced
@@davidpowers9178experience of the place comes from your company and the ambiance personally, there’s something about going to a nice food place dressed well with a person or people you want to go with. The whole act of getting ready and looking sharper than usual for food that you normally wouldn’t try is the experience. Adding a little hop into the “normal” things in life is what makes it better imo. I went to a Michelin star restaurant here in England the food was an elevated version of normal Indian street food and courses although by the end it was £250 for the night I enjoyed my company and it would be something I would want to do 4-6 times a year on special occasions. Overall, life is what YOU want it to be my friend!
@@davidpowers9178the experience is trying new foods. The goal isn’t to stuff yourself and feel full. It’s not about getting your money’s worth in food.
@@user-zz3ie8uu3o spending a thousand dollars on a restaurant for one person is insane. Im sure the food taste good but unless it gives me super powers or makes my lower region bigger its a complete rip off.

The second restaurant reminded me of the movie "The Menu"! They have a similar concept with the planned meals and all. Great video as always, Dylan! Keep up the amazing work!
The 2nd one is definitely a cult lmaoo, they move like literal npc's, they brought you a skull of a big and a dead bird and it just kinda reminds me of a cult in many ways
3rd restaurant felt a bit more bias. They saw the camera / mic, kept you fed and pulled you in to see the chef. Probably wanted to keep you happy in case you were a big food critic. First one was a great place that I’d definitely try
Yeah, its also pretty rude and mean to label other reviews as completely fake, and the reviewers liars because they had a worse experience than him. It's pretty self-centered and egotistical to assume that if nothing bad happens to you then it doesn't to anyone else.
@@lunova6165 Those online reviewers seemed biased. Those complaints sounded petty and or they had a hidden agenda. They are a 3 star michelin for a reason.
yeh thats normal but i still agree- the menu was the first thing that came to mind with the staff all waiting outside, the way the building looked, the tour, ect
I wouldn't be surprised if you got extra good service at the third restaurant because you were filming. I could be wrong, but they did invite you into the kitchen and it would obviously be a bad image if a popular youtuber filmed a bad experience. Besides that, food looked amazing!
We are talking about a 3 star restaurant. That's a big reputation to have and if they heard any waiter do anything those ppl said in those reviews, they would be fired immediately. You don't get a 3 star because 1 food critics came and said it was great. That means you had over 100s of different critics come through and none of them found any flaws in your service, food, or decor. They even look to see if all the dice onion is cut the exact same size
@@la8ballyeah, I can't imagine paying 1000 dollars for a single meal and having anything except a perfect experience. I mean what else was he paying for! Those 2 dumplings that reminded him of the 10 dollar dumplings he had as a kid?
@@LucielStarz123 Definitely not poor. I just understand the value of a dollar. Really rich people don't eat like this either. Just look how Warren Buffet lives. He drives a 10 year old car and looks to buy cars with hail damage. He lived in the same house his whole life.
@@mattferrigno9750 are you really that stupid as to think Warren buffet who owns several jet under private name actually live like that?. The man has private everything at any given time, it’s more likely that his utensils are worth several hundred dollars apiece. Just because he kept his old house for the publicity doesn’t mean he doesn’t have other private multimillion dollar houses he hid from the public.
In case yall didnt know, working at a michelin star restaurant is in fact working at a cult. This goes from 1 -3 stars. Also, the money isn't always good enough to justify the bullying, constant studying, stress , and cult behavior.
I moved to fresno and use to live in San Francisco and that 1 moment you showed outside the car was the church I went to go to , It reminded me of great memories , this is the best video I also seen of food reveiws
@shannen7917, When Staff walks Head bright up and with prober posture, what People nowadays not generally hardly do at all anywhere or anyhow themself, it will be seen as creapy or "Nightmare Fuel - Go to France or Italy and you will see nearly in all good Restaurants firmes and proundnes of their job - There is not "Hi, I´m Mandy/Andy, your Servant" - with stupid overhight Voice + Fake Smile, because you have to make your Tip to survive... Americans, oh dear... Do you know even, what is silent Service? Do you even understand, that you gave a Rating for that second Restaurant, even ever been in there? Stupidity all...
@@potato-ne5lr You pissed into my Drink! You simply just do not know anything about my Metier! You are just spoild Brat, wanting LIKES - You cannot handle any Critic on your Content. Why sould I let you just go like that? Noway!!!

Remember that - Do not be s Smartass... Here my Serials you can piss onto... Be my Guest!!!
Crazy how easy it is to get away with subpar food and decor with these "fancy" restaurants. That third one looked liked one of my classrooms in high school ffs - but the food did seem really great. Now, the second one just felt like a straight up scam to me. They serve you overprice and rare ingredients, barely cook up a recipe and call it a day. The first one was much more acceptable. The place looked cool, cozy, and the price was decent.
This was fun. I love that you shared the bill afterwards. I've only been to one 1-star Michelin restaurant. It was amazing and about $75/person plus more for drinks. Luckily, I took my mom and she doesn't drink, lol. The food portions were small, but by the time we finished all the courses, we were both so full. I really want to try more restaurant. It's a little too expensive to be a regular hobby, but maybe once a year would be good.
As Chinese American, I can tell the last restaurant has fantastic Chinese/Asian fusion food. But i would never spend over $1000 on half of a store bought century egg and some frog legs. The ingredients of that meal cannot cost over $100. I’m not paying $900 for the environment, wait staff and 5 minutes meet and greed with the chef. I would waste my money on some food I’m less familiar with. 😂
you obviously have no clue what it takes to actually make food look and taste like that. It takes a HUGE team of culinary professionals. That costs money.
@@justin783 i know exactly what it takes to cook those items. It’s for clueless people like you guys these restaurants survive, lol. A tiny fraction of your price goes to the ingredients and cooks. Most of it goes to overhead, that’s the fancy place they are renting, the 12 waiters standing around, the electricity, water, lawyers, marketing, pr…and the owners lambo.
@@jz4057 Still you have no idea how much time and effort it takes to create & prepare all of these dishes. It's like saying Ferrari should sell cars at a Kia level
The RU-vid algorithm is doing its job correctly because you have now become one of my top fav RU-vidrs ❤ love the content. And now binging your videos 😂
The writers of The Menu actually once visited the second restaurant in your video and then got the idea for the movie. I don't know if that's true (made it up), but it could definitely be the cas
The service would probably be different if they couldn't clearly see that he had a camera. People tend to put their best foot forward when they're in 4K.
man some of the dishes at the 2 and 3 star places where pretty eugh... Like I'm sure its good but frog legs isnt something i think of when i think of 3 star dinner, and especially not random bird corpses
The second restaurant definitely gives the menu vibes from the first dish to the way the waitress stuff was moving really creepy but cool love this video❤
Cool video! I live in San Francisco and haved walked by Benu many times. One day, Out of curiosity I looked at their menu and was shocked at their prices! Needless to say I’ve never had dinner there! 😂
I was thinking of visit Michelin Restaurant once myself. However if you go to these places, expect less about having huge serving meals, the whole point of fine dining is the present art of food, the dish, the story of the dish and much more.
I used to work at a 3 Michelin star restaurant in NYC. Yes, you are trained to be in unison with the whole team, you are supposed to be very attentive to the tables, as soon as they are done eating you take the plates away but NEVER before, every single detail from the silverware to the way we folded the napkin in the truffle box had to be perfection and nothing less. I have never cried at a job until working there, but it made me appreciate luxury so much more. It was not just about being fancy and expensive. Everyone was passionate about fine dining and giving guests the best experience. You almost crying of joy while eating is the perfect example. That is why I love going to fine-dining restaurants. Of course, some are not that great, but the ones that are- are truly worth it!
As a consumer, This entire over fancy and over dramatic dining experience is exactly why I hate it. Seller is overpricing to bluff, buyer is overpaying for their ego. It’s just a place of fake people. Just like any luxury clothing and art painting. I guess you’ve never been to poor countries and grew up in a wealthy household? I would rather enjoy a hole in the wall family spot, or street noodle place. Sitting in a park or lake to enjoy the food truck. The fancy restaurants is just a way to rip off rich people and mid class “wanna be” people to get them into a bad spending habits and be a money and life style slave forever. As a worker, of course I enjoy working at high end restaurants, as long as there are enough rich people come to visit. I know I will have a fat paycheck that will last me hundreds of good regular Ramen, Thai food, buffets. Here is another 20/80 rule, you pay 20% of the price in a mid tier restaurant and will get 80% of experiences of those overpriced starred restaurants. Or it could even be 10/90 rule. 10% of $1000 is $100, I can guarantee you there are places that cost $100 a meal and would offer you almost the same experience. I feel sorry for you if you cry because something is so fancy or clean. You over charge people 10-20 times of a meal, this is the least you can do to please customers, be glad boss didn’t ask you to dance or wear roller skates to serve food
@@MarcoAshfordYou sound like you can't afford treating yourself once in a while and you've rationalised this hatred against expensive things as "over fancy" and "over dramatic". It's called elegance. If you don't get it, just say that.
@@acex222 Oh my friend, you understand "elegance" entirely wrong... This is the definition of "Luxury", has nothing to do with elegance. Luxury is not a good thing, it is ok for established people to splurge a bit because they are generating massive passive income. But for 99% of the young viewers online, it is an absolute disaster to their perception of the world and their own financial savings. It is NOT ok to have a $1000 meal here and there. First it's a birthday meal, then you justify it on new year's celebration, then thanksgiving, then you ended up going there every few months or even weeks and found yourself never saved up anything in your 20s,30s. A person can be very elegant in Olive Garden, Red Lobster or even just a burger shop. As long as he/she is showing manners, dress well, respect, having a mature social interaction. Not showing off how much money they spent or talk loud in public. Luxury spending will only build you a bad habit. You would lost the sense of real values and keep going back to these consumer traps encouraged by social media. I treat myself very often but never in a wasteful way. To me, going on a normal trip, go out to a Korean BBQ, hotpot, buffet style eat is a treat itself. Spend $1000 more on a meal don't bring you any health benefits or financial benefits, all it does is some ego satisfaction. RU-vidrs post here showing all the emotions and positive feedbacks, it is entirely because this will get them more views. Eating there is their way of making money back. If you ask them behind the camera would they go back to these places to pay that price for the food, the honest answer is hell no. If over spending is your way of being elegant, that is very pathetic and irresponsible.
High fiver on your video Dylan. My darling and I are in hospitality and my loves an amazing chef. We love trying different foods and own recipes here in NZ. We want to do a foodie trip. I really enjoyed your review of these top restaurants🙌🤩✌️
If you don't enjoy pageantry or have a delicate palate a Michelin star is a waste of money. When I do Michelin star restaurants I'm almost always still hungry after spending over $300 on just myself plus and usually hit McDonald's after. It's still worth it to me
Stone Barns... I had hopes for that one but i aint setting foot into a place where they bring dead animals to your table. WTF?! Benu... 1000%?! Yeah they better give you a tour and being able to meet the chef xD it did look rather cold and barren, but the food looked amazing! Bell's... I need to dine there! It looks so simple and non existing from the outside and inside reminded me of, home? Looks relaxing and price actually not bad. Thanks for this!
The way they described the 2nd restaurant reminded me so much of the movie called the menu. Even the food that weren't tasty and just was there for concept and the dead bird
Dylan, haven't watched you in a minute I remember 2019-2020 where I used to come home from school and was looking forward to watching you, now I see your making big moves in life keep up the hard work man
