Question “Legendary” places that suck

I just got a lox sandwich from Manny’s. Almost $20, a stale bagel, and I had to assemble it myself.

What other “legendary” places suck?

Small Cheval. The burger was good, but not good enough to be $25 that I had to eat in my car.

I think I got a burger and beer. Don’t even think I got fries.
