Keith Lee, a popular food reviewer on TikTok, caused a stir with his recent critique of the customer service practices at Atlanta's food spots. With over 14 million followers, Lee has become a household name for his engaging food reviews, often highlighting hard-working restaurants with great food and service.
On October 28th, Lee visited Atlanta to review several Black-owned restaurants including The Real Milk and Honey and Atlanta Breakfast Club. In his honest reviews, he noted the "unique" treatment of non-celebrity customers and additional charges for items like butter for biscuits.
At Kandi Burruss' Old Lady Gang, the story was no different. His family was told they needed to wait for over an hour despite Lee usually sending his family in first. When Lee entered the building to take a look, the hostess told him the table would be ready in five minutes. He chose not to stay, and posted about the incident on his TikTok.
"Things like this is exactly why I do reviews the way I do," said Lee. "Just because I have a certain amount of followers on social media, don't make me different from nobody." He went on to explain how similar experiences had occurred during his trips to other restaurants in Atlanta. "I'm going to be very transparent and honest - I am frustrated. Me and my family just trying to eat food. That's all we try to do."
Despite the negative reviews, Lee urged his followers not to tear down these businesses but to visit them and form their own opinions. The Real Milk and Honey responded to the backlash with a since-deleted TikTok making a sarcastic remark, "Who is Keith Lee?", but the video's caption shared a message of spreading positivity.
