One time my Dad was driving through Texas, and way out west, in the middle of absolute nowhere, he stopped at a diner.
And not only were people still smoking in there, in the year 2023, with poor lighting, bad service and disappointing food, but when he failed to finish his plate, and sat back to look at his phone for a minute, he noticed an ancient skeletal woman dressed like a prostitute just unabashedly staring at his food.
So he told her she could have it.
And instead of taking the plate, and thanking him, and returning to where she came from, she just sat right there at his table and scarfed it down.
He was so tired and stunned, he just sat there. Until he realized HE should leave.
So he paid and left.
He said the place had the weirdest twilight zone/ hotel California vibe.
Dusty is the ultimate story teller. You hang on every word. Brilliant.
"If the FOH is disgusting, what's the BOH looking like."
EXACTLY!!! Rule of thumb for me too, and I worked service industry for 10-ish years.
Do you know what the rule of thumb is ?
@@swim_ad In fact, I do. "A broadly accurate guide or principle, based on experience or practice rather than theory." This is the reason that I specifically chose that phrase. As it accurately describes my rules and how they came to be. Why do you ask SWIM A.D.?
Sometimes, rarely mind you, but sometimes back and front work ethics are different.

@@swim_ad Why are rules always about the thumb?
By far one of the best comics I’ve heard in 10years. Good stuff
I've eaten there....the sign should say
"SORRY WE'RE OPEN"
What is the name of this place?
That was a damn good one!
Truth in advertising!
Dusty Slays comedy is a breath of fresh air!
Thank you sir.
you know you're in shape when a story gets you winded
We've gotten inside the door of a place & then turned around & walked out just because the energy felt bad.. so immediately leaving before I even sit down isn't a problem for me..go with your 1st instinct
I agree with Hannah. Fall from grace situation. You guys did the right thing. Thanks for the funny story..
I wouldn't be surprised. There's an "old fashioned" roadside diner in my hometown, same situation. Always full of clientele, for some odd reason.
Yeah.... We're having a good time👍👍👍👍🇺🇸
"Awkward Moments with Jon Lovitz" sounds like a great and plausible idea for a show. Each episode just ends in a solid 5-10 seconds of silence and staring.
Real tight.
Right and tight
“I got the keys” hahahahaha of course you have the keys 😂😂🤣🤣
Dusty I love your story, lots of laughs : )
I drove alone from the Midwest to California when I was 18, in 1987. I got some food to go at a truck stop restaurant somewhere halfway . . Can't remember where. When the cashier gave me my wrapped up food, which included a milk, the only thing she said, with a.big friendly smile was, "You're gonna love that milk! It's real cold and creamy!"
I thought, what the hell is your deal? I told my sister when I got to California, and it became a running joke when we had milk. I've never forgotten it. She was like out of a David Lynch movie, and super friendly and happy. Yikes!
@@DustySlayWell, she wasn't lying, I'll give her that.
@@DustySlay PS thanks for readin my milk story : )
It just struck me as such an odd thing to say, kinda like "You're gonna love that steak! It's real brown and heavy!"
Have never figured out what would make a person say that.
Love your comedy Dusty : )
The whole time until the very end, I thought the food was going to somehow miraculously be amazing. Sad
Havein a Great Time watching your on the road videos 👍🖐️
I love how there was only 3 rats in my meatloaf 5 out of 6 stars
It's like when you look up the phrase 'Greasy Spoon' in the dictionary, and you see a picture of that place.
I'm going to Big Bear tomorrow to celebrate my birthday for the weekend and I am gonna be non stop telling everyone about Dusty Slay!!! You are the best human being on earth... I'm having a good time!
One time I was stoned out of my mind and ordered food from a place like this. Food came waitress was so disgusting I paid tipped and rolled.
Went to a similar place in Thibodaux, LA except there was no one there and yes we did leave.
I used to eat regularly in a restaurant in China. It was a regular thing for the staff to chase the rats out with brooms. In China the cups have lids to keep the flies off.
Yowsa…
The first restaurant I ever worked at had bunches of bird nests in the intake to the kitchen from the roof. Bird would die in there all the time and it would actually blow feathers into the kitchen. When I found out what was really going on with the mice and what not I quit shortly after. So sketchy what restaurants can get away with.
We got one in PA. Musty mildewy smell, an inch of dust on the plastic plants, you get rained on in the corner booth during a storm. And the bathroom is dirtier than a gas station. But the food is home cooking and great. Perfect eggs every time. It's an old aluminum diner, and sometimes you get an electric shock if you're holding the door and put your hand on the handrail inside at the same time. And it's always packed.
OO forgot to tell you, if you want to purchase it.. its called Latrinious Outdoorious...Fantastic!!!!
My best friend used to say “The nastier the place, the better the food!”
I don't think that's true, though.
I suppose if “fresh air “ enters the establishment it will absolutely ruin the ambiance...just guessing
Awful smell and flies everywhere could mean there's human remains stashed somewhere. Maybe they're serving up travelers that pass through and you guys got out in time!
😂 oddly, this was exactly what I thought too
Smells bad = Broken freezer.
My experience in many French supermarkets.
Fried Green Tomatoes....."It's the sauce..."
After working BoH it’s so hard to eat out. Especially now living in the south. Zero
standards. I can’t work in kitchens here. I’ve even emailed the city concerned after staging at so many restaurants trying to find a clean one to work in.
These gross restaurants are everywhere,the health department basically looks away or takes bribes.
The trick is to ignore the 1* and 5* and read the ones in the middle lol.
If you get to a restaurant and you think, "If I lit up a cigarette right now, it'd smell better in here", you're at the wrong restaurant.
That could've been the "Elias Cole" near Wantage, NJ. We were visiting High Point, NJ in August 2010 - and we passed it on our way up the mountain. "Oh, it looks so cute - a vintage country restaurant!" The place got 4 stars on Yelp, too and parking lot was 3/4 full - good signs! What a shxt show of twirling spirals of amber plastic "Shell No-Pest" strips covered with flies and dust that are hung over the tables, but the disgusting tables, floor, walls and window sills had so much greasy debris that most of the squadrons of flies were ignoring the bait and just walking around while brazingly foraging. We lost our appetite so well that we got all the way back to civilization prior to stopping in a fave spot for a good fly-less meal. I Yelp reviewed all these details and more - and the Elias Cole tried to censure me and demanded that we never stop there again. As if! ;)
I live in NC close to a main highway, and I wanna know where this diner was soooooo bad. You don't have to say a name, but what city or town?
in the first review, they complained about the smell, but they ordered food, ate it, and they gave them two stars...wtf?
You would have to be just stupid to order here. Flies and rotten smells don't come from magic..... Id be worried about getting sick.
@@TheBUGZNTA Must be the "Dirt don't hurt" kind of folk
Sounds like a place I ate at out in the middle of nowhere Montana, wee spot called Judith Gap. Pretty much a gas station and restaurant at a critical central Montana crossroads. The food was good as I remember. Smell, flies, crap service.... those are the standouts.
Love your comedy Dusty!
Once you're grossed out you can't go back. Although, not quite as bad, we never went back to this place. Our lunch group from the medical center went to a popular restaurant for lunch, not our first visit, food was good. They has these tables for 10, and when the folks at the table next to us left, the busboy came by with his cart, and emptied all leftover food on the center of the table, stacked the dishes onto his cart, pushed the food into the "trash" part of his cart, wiped the table, and off he went. Thankfully, we were nearly done, and got up and left. This was over 10 years ago, and your story brought it back to mind! Yuk.
My relatives used to live in the rural community of Lone Jack Missouri… There was a diner that was literally about 40 feet away from a four-lane highway (speed limit 55 mph) that passed by, called “Roadside Café”. I never went in there, maybe it was a nice place, but I couldn’t help but think “Roadkill café” every time I passed it
I used to play against lone Jack in sports. I heard that place is actually pretty good haha
Dude, it's the Phenix city guy..again lol
I just noticed the West Point Pepperell hat. My brother worked at the Opelika plant for years!!! And the "Norma Rae" plant was down the street. Love your stuff !!!
Yeah, I dont think they were having a good time in there😳...
Keep'em laughing brother, I hope you can get back to full time making people laugh soon!! I'm glad I found you on here, it's well worth the price of admission 🙃!!
It's popular with the locals because because the smell and the ambiance reminds them of fun nights when they went there as kids and maybe the had both parents.
Either that or it's a Dunwich type situation.
Dusty I just subscribed! Please tell me if it was The Diner in Pigeon Forge because you just described it to a T
Binging the show, Kitchen Nightmares, has made me cautious when eating out. An unclean/unsanitary restaurant is usually indicative of other problems, possibly including how food is handled (i.e. storage, spoilage, cross contamination, etc...).
I hope you make it out to Tucson sometime!
Ventilation system never got cleaned which by law they are required to do one call to the health department would’ve fix it
Big boys, Anderson Indiana
Having breakfast at the local bar/diner that left the back screen door open next to a dumpster so all the flys would come in, not to mention the smell when the wind changed direction. Also the kitchen took a long break at 7:30 in the morning. Had a beer and never went back.
Its not the restaurant that smelled bad, it just was the sasquatch room freshner spray..Some people are just not receptive to the outdoor aroma.
I think I made the wrong decsion to click on this as I started eating! 😂
I went on a youtube comedian videos "save to watch later" kick...and your 2 week notice video came up. I decided to check it out as a friend of mine just put her 2 weeks notice in.
Excellent bit.
Anyway....I've been listening to your stuff for the last hour. Love your stuff. Looking forward to checking more of your stuff out.
He has lots of stuff.You should check out some of his other stuff.
It's all funny stuff but lot's of real funny stuff.
I like holes in the wall too... not glory holes, well them too, but pubs, restaurant, diners... but not hotels, you definitely don't want a hole in the wall to sleep in.
Maybe it's all about perspective. The people who gave it good reviews might never have eaten anywhere else.
My wife and I walked into a Red Robin and walked immediately back out. You'd a thought it was a Chucky Cheese, there were children running around and screaming everywhere. I just wanted to see what the place was like. Haven't been back since.
If the front door is Grubby , or I get handed a Grubby Menu .I'm GONE !
Jazz....Cajun restaurant. KCMO 39TH ST . The food is great but you can still smell the Al capojn
I bet all those people brought them flies in with them and the restaurant people didn't want to hurt the feelings of the people bringing them in there
Atleast you didn't Dine & Dash, only to run back in for your car keys...🤪
Just saw a video of that exact thing happening to 4 ratchets a day or so ago at VidMax.
The other customers laughing at and ridiculing them....all p.o.c.
Was hilarious.
Claimed they " just went to the bathroom and forgot.
I guess they had crow for dessert.
Tho in my experience you cannot embarrass certain people or see them experience shame.
They're simply not capable of it.
@@feellucky271 You're speaking of the exact same video I am referring to! Hahahaah
When you see a 4.2 rating on Google that’s never a good sign.
Love your comedy!
Sounds like it was no Hyman's Seafood.
They must not run a *tight* ship.
We’re still having a good time
Smell bad you gotta dip
Optimist: well, at least they cleaned the floor and table. But they probably wipe off the sides plates they are about to serve with the same rag......
Seen a guy cleaning the counters floors then wipe some ones soup bowl around the rim I just left
When I was a young lad, my parents would from time to time take me to "Roy and Dots Diner," in Cohasset, Mn. It's not there anymore. That is a great name though "Roy and Dots."
"cars are getting towed, just so you know"
Man love ur standup, Ur going places!
I had a similar experience at work one evening. I was the new guy and was voluntold to pick up dinner for the crew. Everyone was trying to sell me on getting a sub from this place because of how they fixed the subs and how much you got for your money. I always packed a lunch but I went to pick everyone else's up anyway because I'm a team player. Long story short, I pulled up and immediately realized this was going to be bad. The place was in a building that was in disrepair. The front door was propped open, as was the back door which led out to the dumpster which was just outside the back door, like 10 feet. There was a huge floor fan set up to draw the air in from the back and blow it out the front because the AC wasn't working. I walked in and was immediately confronted with how hot it was, plus the stench of the dumpster literally being blown right into my face. There were flies everywhere. So many that you could hear the buzzing over the sound of the fan blowing. There was one person working and she was out back smoking a cigarette. She walked in and, without washing her hands, took the order and immediately started making the subs which consisted of excavating the bread out of the center of entire loaves of Italian bread with her ungloved grubby, sweaty hands. I looked closer and noticed she was a nail biter and every finger tip was a bloody nub. She was about 200 pounds overweight and sweating profusely, constantly wiping the sweat off of her brow, the sweat that didn't drip onto the food, that is. Anyway, she then stuffed the various ingredients into the hollowed out loaves, with her bare, sweaty, bloddy nub hands. I couldn't wait to get out of there! To this day, I never told my coworkers because they were so happy when I got back with their food, and they ate those subs ike they hadn't eaten in days! 😂
We are still having a good time, don’t get it wrong, Texas
Just goes to show you how low a large portion of folk's standards are. Or just how... dumb and oblivious they are.
You need to go on Rogen bro!
"Maybe they got there on a bad day." I'm thinking, English what?
Dude, I subscribed to your channel because of this video! hahahahaha
This kinda thing can happen when the owner of a restaurant dies, and the remaining staff either get lazy, or are so overloaded trying to keep the place going, that they don't get the basics done -- I got food poisoning a few times at a local place, after the owner died (they should have closed the doors for a few weeks until they got the situation under control, but I guess they felt pressure to keep the place open). I told them I got sick, and waited one day before calling the health inspector (to give them an honest chance to resolve the situation before the inspector came).
Smelled bad.
The people who ate working at that restaurant and eating there probably don’t even smell the odors …just surmising
Sounds kinda like the Huddle House I stopped in, in Alabama a couple months ago. However it was colder than shit, the Windows had foggy, mildew on them. The ceiling was half missing, dripping from the rain and mold growing on it. Smelled like shit. But had great service from a gal who was so unattractive it made me wonder how she had kids and the cook…. had no teeth and looked like a meth head. But damn did he cook some good food. They were all super nice. Wouldn’t go back but I’m glad I stopped in.
Were they cookin' chittlin's??
This is some funny stuff!!!
that smell is old tuna fish tammy she been making tgat fudge at that 50s diner
I went to the super Mercado and it turns out that Juan is the loneliest number.
Hannah is hilarious. Great duo. (sorry if my comment is in duplicate)
Appreciate your style. Can put you & the wife up if you travel to Eastern Shore Va.
Sounds like a Dennys or Big Boy restaurant
As I sit here eating a bowl of chicken soup and pb&j sammich 🤢
I saw a man cleaning a table with a wash cloth the same one he showered with and that man is I
I just had this like horror thought. What if all the people that eat there and give good reviews are like demons or like vampires. To them that hell hole is heaven and only real people can smell the foulness of it. Haha, kind of interesting
That's a neat idea
Food for thought…
Cleanliness is next to Godliness. Great observation.
It was so disgusting but the place was full. Ponderous man, fucking ponderous
Here's something to think about, where there are flies, there are *MAGGOTS!*
🤢 - 🤮
I recommend the crab cakes
I have a story similar at the south of the border lol
If you open the door to a restaurant and a wave of stink and muggy air hits you, why are you entering at all. Just turn right around and leave...
Most places dissapioint anymore. Poor service. Barely acceptable food. Overpriced!
Yeah, why were there so many patrons with the flies, the smell, the filth???
Your farmer’s tan. Hahaa
Westpoint Pepperell represent
they went during fly season.... lol
You have to wonder though, if there's no fly's trying to get at my food...is it good???
Workers wearing depends perhaps!
10/2024........Hey Dusty! Maybe we should collaborate and write a book about all the worst places we ate at. For my own enjoyment, I write stories about all the horrible places I have eaten at from childhood though my college years, and the years I worked 2nd shift, at a factory. These are the most horrible, filthy, and weird diners. I write unflinching detailed accounts of these places, with a heavy dose of humor and sarcasm.
Some of the best dinners and taco stands are the biggest POS hole in the walls. You may have missed a gem.
Ya, I remember that one from your podcast :D
4.2 rating! I think you’re just too fancy, Dusty, hehe. Btw, I like the podcasts without producer supervision, where we get the real gritty bits. Hannah’s making you behave too much when she’s around.
