An unhappy customer has criticised a recent £239 meal for two at a restaurant owned by Gordon Ramsay, calling their food “disgusting”.
The unnamed foodie had visited the chef’s Bread Street Kitchen and Bar, in Liverpool with a pal to try its £95 a head Beef Wellington Experience.
However they left unhappy after forking out £239, which did not include any booze.
They complained online: “Waited years to try a real Beef Wellington from Gordon Ramsay's restaurant, and tonight was the night.
“Terrible experience, food was seriously overpriced and wasn’t of a very good standard paid for the Beef Wellington experience.
“Bill ended up coming to £239 for two people — we got a starter to share which included one piece of tuna, four chicken wings, and a slither of beef.
“The main meal to share included four slices of Beef Wellington and a portion of mashed potato.
“Dessert to share included one small chocolate fondant, one small cheesecake without a biscuit base, and three scoops of ice cream.
“With the meal, we ordered three bottles of water. Total price of £239.
“Absolutely disgusting food was not done to any great standard.
“If it was offered to me again for £40 I still wouldn’t return as it wasn’t nice.
“Avoid this place unless you like overpriced trash or burning cash.
“Heartbroken.”
On Google, where the review was lodged, the restaurant has a 3.9-star rating.
However, this is not the first time Ramsay has made the headline for his expensive grub.
In March, he was slammed after charging £1,000 for the ‘ultimate’ Mother’s Day meal, and the price didn’t include booze.
Gordon Ramsay Restaurants have been approached for comment.
Meanwhile last month a chef who worked with Ramsay for 10 years says the man is not quite as he appears on the screen.
Steve Allen worked with the restaurant owner from his early days on television and went on to become the head chef at Gordon Ramsay at Claridge's.
He added: “When I started working for him, he still wasn't that well known, he'd just done Boiling Point and it was very early days," Allen recalls.
"You see these shows and all the shouting and swearing and you think, 'I'll do a year, I'll work here for a year', but it becomes quite addictive.
"The first year you do sort of see that TV persona of his, it's quite tough.
"I'm not going to tell you exactly what he says, but I've worked with nastier chefs that will push you and there's no follow back and they don't show you right from wrong, whereas with him, he's pushing and guiding you in the right direction.”
