People Online Share 42 Meals That Lead To Disappointment Even At Restaurants
I think most of us have some meal(s) that we like to be made in a special way, whether it’s in some particular restaurant, some special ingredients, made by the family member that nobody can compare to, or even the way we make it by ourselves. However, many of us also come across many foods that may seem simple to make but most of the time lead to disappointment when we order them.
Speaking about that, one Reddit user asked folks online to share meals that the majority of people or restaurants always manage to mess them up. Well, the responses vary from cooking eggs, sauces to simple restaurant cakes. So scroll through this ‘disappointing foods menu’ and share your thoughts!

Omelets. The cheese goes on the inside people!
And for the love of all things holy, when you’re making a grilled cheese, the cheese should actually be melted!
Maybe my problem is the way cheese is prepared? Ok, I’m changing my answer to cheese
Hashbrowns. I don’t get why I can only get lightly toasted but mostly white potato shavings. Even if I say, “no white” they still come out raw.
I just had to pay $4 dollars extra to ADD mushrooms to stroganoff…. that should not be an additional fee.
Macaroni and cheese.
Sometimes the noodles are gummy. Sometimes the sauce is bad, usually not very flavorful. Sometimes it’s both.
Macaroni is usually a disappointment.
So many people seemingly can’t cook rice. I don’t get it, it’s one of the easiest things to cook, just let it be and it practically cooks itself. But so many people can’t make it
Calamari. Often over cooked into rubber. At least here in the Midwest. I think enough people around here don’t even know how good Calamari is it is screwed up so much.
Too much truffle. Truffle flavoring is usually made with petroleum byproducts. It’s nasty. Truffles don’t “infuse” into oil. That scent and that taste isn’t natural, it’s all synthetic.
Stop putting truffle flavor on everything! You are eating nasty a*s chemicals *and* paying a premium for it!
Tortillas – so many dry and flavorless industrially produced tortillas out there. Whether it’s tacos, enchiladas, etc, even if the fillings or toppings are great, a bad tortilla brings the whole thing crumbling down (literally) in my opinion.
All my favorite Mexican places near me make their own tortillas and it’s just a different standard. Otherwise, so many times I’m excited to try a popular spot, but then find the tortillas subpar.
Chicken breast. Every restaurant cooks it to death. You have to undercook it a bit and let the carry over heat finish it off, but restaurants are too afraid of salmonella so you end up with a dry piece of s**t.
Poutine. It’s trendy to stick fries, with cheese and a sauce and call it that, but you can’t really substitute any of the ingredients and have it taste anywhere near the original.
I can’t remember the last time I had decent fried egg rolls at a restaurant. The insides are often just mushy, flavorless cabbage.
Reuben sandwich… because when it’s good it’s great but when it’s bad it’s terrible.
Cabonara shouldn’t have mushrooms but every restaurant in my town thinks they should.
If it’s not a bakery, CAKE! Cakes in restaurants always tend to SUUUUUCK. They’re not fluffy or delicious or leave a soft warm feeling in your body when you eat it. That’s what I look for in my cakes, a good cake should be so soft and delicious that it makes you feel loved like a loving parent. Restaurant cakes are just either too dry, too hipster, or too goopy.
I’ve never had good nachos at a restaurant. The ratio of, and distribution, of toppings to chips is always disappointing. And the chips are often rubbery. Even if the flavor is nice, the balance is terrible.
For me it’s scrambled eggs, so many people mess up the texture imo. Use butter, light heat, and constantly whisk.
Fish and chips. Seems like most places assume you’re going to add malt vinegar, so they don’t think they have to season the food. You always have to season the food.
French toast
I love French toast, but most restaurants don’t offer a French toast meal that makes any sense. If I’m ordering French toast, I don’t just want 3 French toasts on a plate and nothing else. You need bacon or sausage, maybe a couple eggs and SOMETHING else to cut the sweetness of the toast.
Chili rellenos. Well prepared they’re amazing but I’ve been disappointed so many times I basically never order them anymore.
Shrimp. I believe that most cooks overdo them, they do too much.
Burgers. I have been searching for a good hamburger for months. I can make one but every place I go over cooks them and dries them out. These think a*s patties suck.
Philly Cheesesteaks sometimes. They might cut the meat up right, but sometimes they just plop some of that liquid cheese stuff some places put on nachos. There’s variations that can make it work, and the “street” version is different too.
Literally anything with Cajun in the name. Even here in South Louisiana, chain restaurants can’t do cajun right. You’re lucky to find a mom&pop owned restaurant that does it right unless you’re in New Orleans.
