I equate it to an author writing a book.
Once one is done, you start thinking of another story.
I am an author. And one thing I want the most is honest opinions on what I write.Because if I see the reader's point and agree with it, I can make adjustment to produce a better product.
I can't change the last book I wrote, and you can't change the last dish you served. But I can make my next work stronger, and you can make the offering better if it genuinely has a problem that can be corrected.
You don't read reviews of your place and never will? That is the epitome of arrogance, and I respect nothing about it.

Quit being a drama queen. Maybe, just maybe he gets his feed back from how full his restaurant is a wry night and by talking daily with his patrons.

Not looking for specific numbers here because that is none of our business, but I've always been curious of premium restaurant margins vs casual dining (chain) margins. A long time ago, I worked at chilis to put myself through college and loved it. I worked FOH and BOH and was asked to go into management when I graduated. One of the things I remember my GM saying was that restaurants are a game of pennies and that two or three bad guest issues can cause you to make 0 profit for the night.
I'm curious of the truth in that statement and if it applies to your business model.

I took this a different way. To me, as the chef/owner... He has time for personal complaints/suggestions and welcomes them. He does not, however, have the time to read all 459872635 internet posts from 23453726 "foodie" sites. There would never be enoigh time for that.... As in most restrnts, I suppose he has an internet/mkting team that filters thru them.
I believe your post was quite sharp in repose, thus proving how different responses can be taken in different manners..... Via print. Hence some previous posts/warnings.
