A good steakhouse should make the entire dining experience feel effortless and fun. There’s nothing worse than sitting down at a steakhouse, only to leave feeling disappointed or worse, upset because of a bad experience. Keep an eye out for these red flags.
When you walk into a reputable, top-notch steakhouse, you can usually see and smell just how clean it is. The windows sparkle, your table is free and clear of spills and stains, the bar is not sticky.
But if you walk into a restaurant and the surfaces look or feel grimy, you might want to turn back around and head somewhere else. Restaurants should be cleaning and sanitizing surfaces nearly constantly when they’re open for business.
Now, what’s this about bathrooms? Look at it this way: The bathrooms are one of the few places that members of the public actually see when they visit any restaurant. If this very public-facing spot is gross or not very well maintained, just think of the spots you’re not seeing — the kitchen, behind the bar, and the stockroom, for example. If the restaurant staff isn’t willing or doesn’t have time to clean the bathrooms, they’re probably not doing a great job cleaning in other places, either. It’s gross to think about, but likely true.
Restaurant cleanliness and hygiene — across the board, throughout the entire restaurant — are the keys to making sure, germs, bacteria, and other nasty hitchhikers don’t hop aboard your plate of food or your cocktail, then take up residence in your stomach.
