Disclose then for the frauds they are.
This why I luv watching ur guys vids to watch the owners cringe in fear💯🤣🤣🤣
Of course they have only calculated the eat all you can based on the average person, it's still business anyway and all they care is the profit but still you shouldn't have been cut off or asked to pay more cuz you're one in a million and it's not like they always have a customer such as you. But maybe they also feared that you'd go eat there everyday or charging you more is like they're saying please don't eat here often cuz we'd lose profit.😂
The song in the background haha!
That was so wrong! The owners could not get cheaper! The owners are embarrassing!
If the restaurant is advertising all you can eat on certain nights then it should be that exactly, if the restaurant can not afford to do so then, it shouldn't be advertised. Its that simple.
No dum dum. It's called they're not expecting the .000001 percent of losers in the world who do this for a living to come in and take money out of their til. They knew these guys were going to lose their profit that night, they could have disclosed it in exchange for free publicity. Oh you poor guys, you only had 8 plates.. pricks
@@rich8381 Well that's tough, in this day and age it's common knowledge that there are competitive eaters, so therefore, they should make the rules clear! However they didn't, so all you can eat means ALL a person can eat regardless...DUM DUM!!!
@@Guardianangel369 you can't expect some poor business owners from the old school to be in the lookout. You make it like there's competition eaters everywhere. There's like a handful of these retards. It's called they husseled them. They knew they were going to eat them out of their pockets and played stupid, c'mon man grown-up
@@rich8381 Exactly brother. They tried hustling the place.
@@citizenoftheninthdivision It’s literally ADVERTISED ALL YOU CAN EAT. They should’ve put a limit on them BEFORE they ate the WHOLE BOX. Don’t wait til you see them eat it and then tell them cause that’s a scam too. If he took this to court he would win. Bottom line is they advertised it and they did just what the ad said. Don’t wait for them to eat you out a whole box. That’s stupid on their behalf’s.
When you regret having a all you can eat day when Joel and Scott walk through the door. lol
The restaurant is afraid Joel will eat them out of business.
This really bothers me because when I'm forced into an AYCE buffet situation, the restaurant makes bank. I've never been able to eat much food at one time, so I would have to stay all day to get my money's worth. I'll bet there are a lot more people like me than there are people like you guys, so it's only fair to honor the deal.
Exactly! I could have only eaten 2 pc and a couple fries, maybe! They make $$ on us!
The point of AYCE is having a large enough turnover of 'normal' customers who don't eat huge amounts, to cover the loss on those who DO eat a fuckload. If you don't have that turnover, don't have AYCE. It's very basic economics 😂
EXACTLY!!!! They wouldn't even have this deal if they didn't think they could earn money on it by stuffing people full of fries and some fish. They get 95% of people that earn them a good profit and, just maybe, 5% that break them for profit. Even less that actually cost them a loss.
When professionals walking in like this. You take the loss as advertisement. I'm glad Joel beeped out the name and location. They don't deserve the advertising
"Lets leave before they ask for our wallets !!!".

The awkwardness at the end reminds me when I'm trying to finish up my meal after I find out my date is unstable.
Ahahahahaha!
I cackled 😅😂
If restaurants can say ALL YOU CAN EAT as a marketing technique, they need to understand the risk that comes with it. It doesn’t say “eat until we think you have had enough”. They also don’t down charge people who eat 1/8th of the food a normal person eats, so they always win in the long run.
Q&b yea might as well say good bye to INTEGRITY, TRUST, RESPECT ETC. ITs A FU@KING FREE FOR ALL RIGHT!!! too many stupid idiots with no grace left in their minds, bodies, and souls, yummy🤮
It's not as much as you can eat...it's all you can eat. If they tell you you can't have more...that's all you can eat is it not? Joel is a joke
@@JonnyQuest64 You're bad with semantics but great with non sense.. 🤣🤡
@@JonnyQuest64 lol you don’t understand business and if you don’t like his videos then don’t watch them if you don’t understand or comprehend all you can eat menu advertising
@John Doe all you can eat means everything you can safely eat and fit into your stomach without waste. Or until full. If the owner cuts them fof it's not An all you can eat. Its you can eat up to this amount
I'm in the US and I've heard of restaurants cutting people off or asking to leave. Not saying it's right but it's been done. Asking you guys to pay more, in my opinion, is bullshit.
In every Chinese buffet when they see you eating too much they just give you the check lol is like saying you have enough fuck off 😂😂 my friends doesn't care tho.😂they keep eating ahahah
@@genesisamaya9261 Yes i just ignore them. They look at you funny and cross their arms lol.
@@genesisamaya9261 My dad's friend went to a Chinese one by my house and was eating basically just prawns and crayfish. They legit came out and removed the steam trays
Ar the other fish and chips place he didn't have a problem paying more and made a big deal about not being allowed to. Shows you this guys true character 👌
When they said “all you can eat” they weren’t expecting 2 people to eat enough fish for 25 people 😂😂😂😂😂
Exactly...that was so much fish!!!! These guys must be pros. That's crazy how much they ate.
Dr ? i doubt that. maybe a doctor to the sick, but the healthy, beautiful and intelligent, if u think this is funny, id warn people NOT TO HIRE YOU AS A DR.

@@jessecastillo3841 It's not that much. If you've ever been in the military you'd realize that but most people haven't.
There's tons of people that can scarf down 15 pieces of cod.
Exactly
They should change the rules from “All you can eat” to.. “ All we can afford” 😂
Fr
Take my thumbs up please.
Your absolutely right! Well said
Yes but he's not a normal person 😂 restaurant owner is there to make profit
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 True
Ok... So... Let me explain from a restaurant point of view...
Most restaurants dont anticipate a professional eater coming in on a friday night. Especially what looks to be a mom n pop shop. On average 15 to 20 orders go out on something like this and the people who do order this may get 2 or 3 "refills"... Please take this into consideration when you go into some place like this. A case of fish isnt cheap. And im sure they hoped they would have made a profit on rather than taking a huge financial loss on several cases of fish for $15.
Joel doesn’t care. He got views and likes and subscribers. He also just lost a subscriber. Am
I the only one wondering how he be-bops all around both the US and Canada without quarantining for 14 days between challenges? 🤔
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 say it again for the folks in the back...
@@SwitchbackXThunter he films several episodes and holds them for later.. Hes explained that when he told everyone his computer died.
It’s an odd one for both sides
@@JoelHansen i would say for any small town/mom n pop shop, call ahead and let them know. I have ran restaurants for 20+ yrs and i know the heads up is always appreciated.
If they want to limit how much you can eat with the "all you can eat" they should put a disclaimer, or cut people off after x amount. It's wrong to try charging more
yep.
The restaurant should have told him to quit filming and he should have disclosed that they are pro eaters and are going to profit off the video BEFORE starting. But then, I was assuming they were principled, which they arent.
@@tombryan1 its ALL YOU CAN EAT. If they can't back it dont advertise it plain and simple. These guys being pro eaters dont mean squat
@@tombryan1 why should they say their pro eaters? Or even that theyll make any money off the video? Theyre there to eat, not to disclose any personal information.
@@tombryan1 don't tell me if you had a couple of big boys 300+lbs couldn't polish off 20 fish filets... establishments like this anticipate this to occur and they offset the costs.
That's unbelievable. I can't believe he even had the nerve to ask. If you can't afford to serve an all you can eat menu then don't advertise one. You two are nicer than I would be. Guarantee you aren't the first unhappy customers. You shoulda put them on blast, that behavior deserves it. .. Oh and btw I LOVE ketchup and tartar sauce. Also ketchup and cocktail.. Yumm
If a business is going to offer an AYCE at one price they should honor it or have a sliding scale like “AYCE” up to x amount of pieces then each additional piece is an extra $$. At least that way the customers know the real deal.
Yes came here to post this.
That's exactly what I was going to say...
Then it's not AYCE. Either change the price or don't do it period.
@@cwagnello Agree.
What if someone came in and could only finish two pieces (which would be me..i can't eat much) and they asked the restaurant to slash the price to $7.50... they would laugh and say NO..
The bill at the end $30.00 for the fish and chips, $45/bottle for the ketchup.
They make money on 95% of every person that does the "All you can eat" deal, but when someone comes and actually DOES rise to the challenge they want to charge them cost? That's pretty poor business management. Sometimes you have to eat the profit. That's just business.
Bullshit. Joel is a freak. He should understand when he world doesn't align with him.... It would be like Shaq getting pissed that Mazda doesn't make the Miata to fit him.
I think the restaurant should pay Joel and his friend for ensuring the fish doesn’t go bad.
Just so you know - In most countries - including CA and USA - you can demand your money back if you already payed - and if you haven't the restaurant can't demand payment if they advertise "All you can eat" and then cut you off. It basically falls under the broad category of "false advertising". They ARE however allowed to cut you off at any point... so if they see you walk in the door and recognize you they are allowed to "not sell you the product" - or enter an agreement about a maximum at that point.
This is true. I worked in charge backs, which means if a business is in the wrong or does false advertising or makes you ill you can get your money returned to you.
Look up CCPA yes you can get your money back for false advertising
I don’t think most small places expect professional eaters to take advantage of that kind of deal. Even a food challenge has limits and $. Small places can’t compete.
Especially with these businesses struggling currently just to open their doors due to this pandemic.
Then they shouldn't offer AYCE then and being a professional eater has nothing to do with it because it is AYCE for 1 flat price[in this case $15]
@@vlm69 It's also just using some common sense. Was their point to make the business go broke? There's no other customers coming in and they are eating the place dry. It's not hard to be reasonable.
exactly my man. I see both sides.... these places are loosing a lot of money on this deal... they expect people to eat a certain amount.. these guys are blowing the doors off. perhaps they should call ahead and have a friendly conversation with the owner.. explain who you are, and what you do, and what you're capable of... how they will get exposure, avg views, etc. and make sure they are OK with it before you come in and eat $200 worth of food and only pay $15. As others mentioned these small restaurants are really struggling. Its gotta hurt when someone cleans out their inventory on an AYCE deal.
@@RustyB5000 With respect man i disagree.... if it's an AYCE regardless of who the person is AYCE is AYCE and that's not on the customers[ANY customers] in anyway.... businesses big and small should prepare for the deals/specials they offer even in these hard times
dont take this the wrong way..but small business is hurting pretty bad..and he didn't expect the collateral fish damage haha
I mean even for low price fish, how can you expect to make money in all you can eat fish for 15. Even one extra plate puts you in the negative
If a business is hurting its smart not to do all you can eat. That just bad business on the business.
They need to change their policy. No all you can eat during a pandemic...were there any other customers?
@@onefeather839p9 since the plates are brought to the table they break no guidelines
@@qwertpoiuy430 my point was meant slow business...no chance to offset the cost of these 2 diners due to covid. Prior to covid they probably had a chance everyday with indoor dining.
In a small business like this, I think professional eaters need to be conscious of the fact that they eat many X's more than average eater, and be willing to pay
more.
No one likes to feel they they have been taken advantage of, when they offer a fair price for good food!
🤔
Agreed!
The Carpenters playing in the background ! Priceless 🤣😂
This reminds me of The Simpsons episode where Homer pretty much did this to an AYCE fish place. "Sir, you can't take the tray." He ended up suing them, and the court scene is hilarious. Ahh, the good old days, when The Simpsons was actually funny and well written.
I was thinking this the whole time too. Remember on the jury the one guys gasps and says that could have been me.
"And what did you do after you were ejected from the restaurant?"
"We went straight home"
"Mrs. Simpson, you are under oath"
"...we drove around until 3am looking for another ayce fish restaurant"
"And when you couldn't find one"
"...we went fishing" *cries*
"Do these sound like the actions of a man who had all he could eat?"
Come for the freak, stay for the food
And he even ate the plastic for show lobster
@@eggstu I heard they shaved a gorilla
A lot of restaurants are really struggling. Surely, you dont want to contribute to their going out of business. Absolutely think that any competitive eater should alert staff in advance and offer to pay double or triple.
Naw. They should charge more for the initial price or put a time limit on the AYCE deal. It’s balanced out. Not everyone who eats at AYCE establishments eat more than a serving or two. If the restaurant is hurting like that then they should end that particular deal. I understand what you are saying though. I don’t think it was their intention to put a restaurant out of business. Professionalism is professionalism. I wouldn’t go there and eat that much because I would make myself sick but then again I would never eat at a place that treats it’s customers that way. Smh.
@@mercedesjones998 My guess is they had never had customers who could eat 5 portions or more doing the all you can eat. And that they likely will impose limits now. So Joel played within the rules I guess in sitting down to get it. I just feel like Joel should know better, and should be gracious in informing the business in advance what he's about to do. Same goes for any competitive eater going to buffet or doing all you can eat. Would it really kill them to pay double? I'm sure they are making enough off the youtube views to cover the extra 20 or 30 bucks.
@@robbiedaniels2164 yeah I sort of agree. It's not like sticking it to the man at Wal-Mart or McDonald's where they make billions off of customers... It's clearly a local mom & pop type place struggling to keep the lights on during the covid lockdowns. Probably weren't expecting 2 world-class competitive eaters to come in and clear out their entire supply of fish n' chips...
If restaurants are struggling, then don't offer all you can eat
If they go out of business over a box of fish they weren't going to survive. Surely you don't think the business has no onus to ensure their own profitability by for example setting rules which would keep someone from eating their profits?
when you’re trying to keep your (seemingly empty) business running, you might not want two dudes that have stomach capacities equal to 20 men at your $15 AYCE fish and chips spot 😂
Bad for business tho to advertise "all you can eat" and not follow through 🤦🏽♀️
Or maybe, these assholes shouldn't go looking for a little mom-and-pop joints like this only two Ambush them without calling or anything first and maybe, just maybe, these guys should think about actually doing something for people instead of constantly taking from them... How many people are seriously going to go to this restaurant because these two jackasses went there and tried to put them out of business???
@@guywilliams6569 don't false advertise. You have all you can eat for a set price. Then try and charge more when they have paid your set price. They should blast these people. So no one else gets duped by these people running false adds.
@@guywilliams6569 These establishments have no problem when they make a profit.
They should have a sign that says..no professional eaters. I know! Sounds cheapo. Butt.... but tgey shouldn't advertise all you can eat..
This sort of happened to me 20 years ago. Holiday Inn. Was advertising. Surf n turf. All you can eat 20 bucks. Half 2 lb lobsters n porterhouse steak 1 plate at a time. You could go up after you finished your plate. It was just suppose to be for tge people in their hotel. People caught wind of it. N everyone in town went their. People are piggs. When they see a deal.
Saw couple of guys going up filling their plates with lobster 🦞....it was sickening..they had to stop the deal.
That was very commendable of you guys, cause all-you-can-eat buffets are not really designed for competitive power-eaters that can totally destroy any profits for an entire day that restaurants need to make. Good job!!
They should post a sign that no competitor eater will be able to participate in the all you can eat.
Joel isn't in the competitive eating scene, they would have no way to stop him from eating there. Major League Eating has a clause in their contracts about stuff like this, but Joel is not in a contract, therefore he is just a guy who eats a lot of food. You can't simply tell those people they can't eat at your restaurant, unless you want bad press and complaints.
I think you mean competitive.
Yep, just to cover their a$$es.
@@stllcb7894 I didn’t say there wasn’t.
💯
The real mistake was serving just fish... throw in a bunch of fries with each helping & it's guaranteed you wouldn't eat that much fish...
But they were getting fries.
@@roberttaylor3118 they only got fries a couple times.
Being professional eaters, it would be a "better look" if they ate fries with every plate. 10lbs of fish for 5 people would $75 for the restaurant. And non-pro eaters would have probably eaten more fries and less fish.
Its not unlimited fries or ayce fries
"Uhh hey George...... the ocean called, they're running out of fish!"
Because of Chinese Fishermen !
Fried fish uses hake, or white fish, which is sustainable and farmed.
So no, over fishing would have nothing to do with the owner being uptight.
"Well the jerk store called and said they're running out of you!" 🤣
@@enezduplessis1482 r/woooooosh
"Come on you guys, get out !!, there's not enough fish to go around !!."
These gluten’s should not go to small businesses and exploit them, it’s disgusting.
I'm glad to see someone agrees with me. This guy is disgusting to eat like this. He's a competitive eater so that changes the rules. Gluttony is sickening!
This reminds me of the time that Red Lobster decided to do an AYCE crab legs for $25. I only saw the ad once and it was late at night. I called the restaurant the next day to verify and it was on. My family and I (party of 8) we went to Red Lobster and tore it up. They would only bring out 2lbs at a time I think, but I didn't mind that because I hate when my crab legs get cold anyway. We didn't get kicked out or anything, but we ate ALOT! I know each of us ate about $100 worth of crab legs. Red Lobster later stated that they lost $2 million on that AYCE. Needless to say, they never did that again. LOL.
But in this case, I don't think that it is fair to ask them to pay more or cut them off. AYCE places have to account for the occasional person that will come in and eat way more than what they pay for. But there are also always a lot of people that come in and don't eat $15 worth. Although I will say that $15 is pretty cheap for an AYCE fish place. This looks like a small place, and this should have been a time to re-evaluate the business decision to do an AYCE. Maybe they could do a fine print, up to 8 pieces or something like that and a different price after that.
That is an awesome story. You And your family probably still talk about that day Ahahaha.
I love that!
@TYRESE RICHARDSON ok. but I didn't realize that I was on your channel. Ohhhh.... I'm not!
I agree. There's 4 of us in my family. So when we got to all you can eat places we can eat alot. They need to have some kind of rules so they aren't getting bad reviews. A lot of people wouldn't come back if they were asked to pay more. If more people was there and heard that they'd probably leave or not come back. I mean a box of fish only cost maybe $20 to $25 o guess depending on where you're at.
My thing with buffets is quantity of food for the 💵 until I'm full, which is usually after the third or fourth plate. I don't do unauthorized "challenges" or "contests" to see how much I can slam down. I want to enjoy my food and I don't want to be on the throne forever later on or the next day. I take only the amount of food I know I can finish on my plate, and I finish it, before I set it aside for the busser, and return to the buffet. I don't like up a huge amount of food, eat half the plate or less, set it aside, and repeat. I've seen a lot of plates of uneaten food piled up on tables. That's wasteful, and understandably makes the restaurant management mad. Joel to his credit at least finishes his plates.
Since you brought it up as being a matter of principle, one could argue it could be a matter of principle to give a restaurant like this a heads up that two guys who can put away 10 pounds of food each would be visiting so they could plan their inventory accordingly. No restaurant without a published food challenge is expecting to accommodate someone who can do that, let alone 2 at once, and lots of people don’t know there are even people out there who can eat that much in one sitting. I certainly didn’t until I ran across your videos, Randy’s, Katina’s, Raina’s. I’m still amazed that a human can eat that much.
My thoughts exactly. The comments section is bad mouthing the place. But Joel shoulda gave them a heads up. They coulda said no problem anticipating good advertising. Also they mighta said WE'RE NOT STOCKED for this, can we schedule it for another day etc... I sure don't hold the restaurant in contempt.
Wrong...they advertised all YOU can EAT .that's what they PAID for .Sorry you should prepare better for big eaters or large groups. Olive garden or golden corral honors their advertisement
Get a life
Smaller, local places may be struggling due to covid and all the shut downs. I think communication would have helped. Maybe next time call ahead and inform them you're a "pro eater". Also in the US at least, a restaurant can only seat so many people. It's harder to get certain food in, ect.
EDIT: A great way to support local would be to film at a restaurant eating their daily specials or interesting meals! Save the AYCE for a chain that can afford to have 20 fish eaten in one hour.
Ayce is ayce false advertising is false advertising so it's not ayce covid or no covid
They knew who we were
Don't know where you are in the us.. but all you can eat is packed where I am and can eat as much as you want. You paid for it there is so much food there eat away
I'm with you Joel (and the vast majority on here) who have said that they can't charge more and shouldn't be asking you to pay more.
IMHO where they messed up is that you don't have to order chips but can just keep ordering fish alone.
What they need to do is change the Ts&Cs of their deal i.e. it is AYCE but each round is a plate of fish and chips (you have to eat the whole plate of food and then they will bring you another plate of Fish & Chips).
Also for every one customer like you who has a healthy appetite, there are plenty of others that the establishment is making a healthy margin from.
2 bottles of ketchup? Dude...
that’s like $6 in ketchup alone
@@toolbaggers No chance.. these places buy huge bulk containers of sauce and just refill the table bottles. Did you really think they bought singles? You're not very smart are you..
@@joeblo1 lol
I like your vids but I'm thinking you guys did take the piss a bit with this small restaurant
What u no like ketchup?
I think their lesson here is either put a max on how much you’re allowed to eat or a time frame. The Nordic lodge in RI is pricy seafood yet they have it all and it’s all you can eat in 1hr...
Or all you can eat or number of pieces . Max 10
Nordic Lodge is a 2hr limit.
Theses guys can destroy the business if the try in 15 minutes.
That Carpenter’s song near the end is very sad:(
Dashia..I ate at tge Nordic lodge many times..it yse to be called kysties..10 miles down tge road..they did tge Nordic lodge up well. Ladt time I went was 10 years ago. I moved to vegas...but it cost 80 bucks a person then. You had 2 hours to eat. Lobsters were 3 pounders cut in half..great steaks..great desert bar..but id..be throwing sbit I ff my plate. That had half lobster. On it..lol. the waiters just come n throw your plates out..n just go back up..Couldn't believe my eyes..
Can you imagine?. What the waiters make on tips?? 80 bucks per person??.
Always rooting for you when eating plates on plates at a large chain. I do feel bad for this restaurant given it looks like a small business and the given situation around the world.
I agree.use better judgment..its a small business
Even chains are owned by small business owners. These buffet videos are not that great. They don't post challenges or anything. Just seems you are taking advantage
Feel bad for small businesses??
It's their dumb asses for having an "All you can eat" fish n chips 2 nights a week!!! When it says all you can eat it better be a all you can eat! Even though if it's a small business or not!!
This business owner missed a trick. For everyone one like Joel, there's got to be a hundred normal people, and to have someone like Joel come and eat at your place can be spun into some great marketing.
@@keithwebb9839 The business offered it, don't blame these guys!
This cat Joel knows how to hold his tongue. Respect.
If they want to limit you it should say like “15$ up to 6 plates” and state the extra charge after that. Such poor way to conduct business and ill marketing
I agree
If stated it’s fair
Mixed feeling on this one, you being a professional eater out of respect I would think you should let the establishment know ahead of time that you would be consuming a lot of food at the same time giving them a review online that could be good advertisement for them. That would also give you & them the opportunity to discuss if there are any limits & extra charges. Restaurants already work on a very low rate of return on food & with the pandemic it is even worse. I know they are offering it as AYCE but places like this typically do this on a limited scale to reward their regular customers & usually during hours that might be typically slow to pick up business. By not being upfront the establishment is now been put in a position to have to change their AYCE rules going forward that can hurt their regular clients. Be the professional, that way there are no issues like you had. That being said you should not have to pay more in the end because that was not established from the beginning, they should have just let you know they were going to have to change their policy going forward that you were fine this time & thanks for coming & hope you enjoyed the fish! I think you should be fair & promote the establishment in your video if the food was good. Of course this is just my opinion. 🤷♂️
AYCE means AYCE. Nuff said.
Just went for dinner tonight. People can do math.
fancy chicken sandwich paid 23.95 - chicken breast,1.80 bun .50 cents, salad 1.50 (food markup 800%)
24 oz draft beer paid $7.99 on sale - cost of 24 oz of draft beer 1.00, maybe (alcohol markup 800%)
Yes i know they have staff, rent and heat etc. but so does every other business.
I'm tired of people bs'ing about no mark up in food...it's right there in front of your face and everyone knows because they buy it everyday at the grocery store at RETAIL prices.
Plus the extra tip and taxes and eating out is unaffordable for a lot of families.
Please, i know the pandemic is hurting them and a lot of businesses. I feel bad for them in that regard.

Idk man. A professional eater going to a small mom and pop shop seems inconsiderate
Double sided blade dont offer ayce if you dont mean it. At the same time who are you gonna know who is a competitive eater or not.
Getting free promo on his channel is worth way more than than what the business lost due to his visit..
I was thinking the same
@@bugs1com but he didn’t say the name of the restaurant nor was it even a good promo so.....
My ex husband was never a professional eater. He was an average size (5'9" 150 pounds) guy. He had an incredible metabolism. Many times we'd go to a buffet and they'd lose money on him. Really I'd say they broke even on the two of us because I was and still am a vegetarian. My husband a die-hard carnivore. But any establishment can't do a "bait and switch" quoting one price and then force you to pay another price because you can eat a lot of a pricey food! Most restaurants enjoyed seeing my husband put away all that food. They couldn't believe how much he could eat!
Don't understand how someone can eat 2 bottles of ketchup, 16 peices of fish, bunch of fries and sit at a restaurants AYCE with a straight face from beginning to end and then get offended when they tell him he ate a whole box of fish this is disgusting and I don't see how some of you people are ok with this
Preach.
I would have asked them two questions:
1)Do you give prorated refunds to eaters who eat less?
2)If you were to go to a casino and won the jackpot, what would you say if the casino staff told you they wouldn't pay out the entire jackpot, because it's too much for them?
It's not a casino or a big chain restaurant. It's a small business. Not the same thing. If they want to cut someone off they can. If every competitive eater around took advantage of this they would go out of business.
I feel bad for any small business losing money, but if they agreed to the deal they have to live with it. If a poor person comes in asking for the AYCE and eats less than what they paid for should they be given a refund? Obviously that is the morally correct solution.
Scott's face was priceless and Joel's eyebrow was perfect! WTH kind of place does that! I don't care if you ate three boxes of fish, the deal was 15.00 "all you can eat!" Not charge me by the pound for all you can eat!🤬
IMHO what made it priceless was that the Carpenters started playing
That was kind of rude though. To talk to them about charging them more after the fact. I could understand telling them " hey you each had 12 pieces of fish,there will be a upcharge for more fish.but the way the manager came at them it seemed like harassment
I dont know, how is it a harrasment. They are running small business owners to suffer at the cost of their inhumane capabilities. Food outlets keep one man's margin of eating equal to two men, but would you ever expect that two men will come to your restraunt and eat the food of 20 men. They have established food chain for business, not for charity.
@@nobelcreature6201 there are ways of mitigating your losses without harassment. Also these kind of ppl are 1 in a million ppl they are very rare. Its like someone beating the house in Vegas and trying not to pay them because they have some sort of clairvoyant capabilites. Every non and then someone gets very lucky and takes the casino for millions. That is the chance a casino takes when it opens its doors for business. Just .like this restaurant, there is a 1% chance a pro eater comes to eat the " all you can eat " buffet.that is the chance they take by having that buffet.if you dont like the risk ,then don't have a all you can eat buffet! But you dont hVe a right to harass them . After soo long you could refuse them further service and refund their money ,tell them they can have other items just no more fish.,but publicly harassment is wrong.
@@mgtowlegion652 if you look it up you'll see there are great black jack players and craps players - they are black listed from casinos all over. they are barred by the gambling industry. not cool at all. also bookmakers reserve the right not to pay out on a bet - its in their terms and conditions - and its happened.
@@BrainDamageComedy shure you can black list ppl if you want nut that requires recognition and diligence on their part .they didn't do that in this case and tell them we refuse your business. So if you accept their business then accept the consequences of accepting their business WITHOUT HARASSMENT AFTER THE FACT!
I can't believe how restaurants treat their customers. All they want to do is sound BIG by having an all you can eat night, then cutting off customers who have big appetites. SHAME ON YOU.....YOU ARE DISGUSTING AND SHOULDN'T BE IN BUSINESS if you don't know how to effectively run one. Hope you fail.....
I’d tell them that if they’re going to sell their food as ALL you can eat, they need to fulfill their promise and not false advertise.
If your business is really doing so bad that you can’t afford to feed one person more than a certain amount of the cheapest breaded fish ever, maybe close your doors permanently because you’re not cut out for business management...
A small mom and pop shop can’t support competitive eaters coming to their establishment with out it being a planned event to bring in customers... especially two of them who are some of the best in the bizz. There is no way these RUclips videos provide enough advertisement since it’s only a local place (probably in Canada)

This was pretty poorly planned. You very clearly didn't let them know that two basically pro eaters were coming in and you don't pay artists in exposure so that comment was tone deaf.

G'day
19:50 Joel completely baffled hahahahaha 🤣 this is hilarious!! "You boys showed up and put in work" ...I mean, it's all you can eat after all 💪🙌😂
I gotta say, it seems like the self-serve buffets are the right place for the big eaters. The kitchen-based ones that bring out the food for you never seem to understand how much you can get down ;o)
1st let me say, I love your content.. I don't want to start a hate mess but I feel that during Covid that place is lucky to be still open.. I didn't see one other customer in the restaurant besides you two awesome guys, The joint is definitely loosing money on you both, yeah Technically you're right, 'all you can eat' I just feel it's not a good fit unless it's a money making establishment. My 2 cents for what its worth.. keep the great content coming. 👍
Agreed. Owners probably losing tons of money every month trying to stay open to feed their family and pay the bills and then they get two competitive eaters going through more than a box of fish and two bottles of ketchup for $15 each. Feel bad for the owners.
I fully agree
They said they were early
@@MrBurlyboxing are they Really struggling?
Ok so do you feel worse now knowing the restaurant is prob empty EVEN on AYCE night maybe because of other reasons (like clearly not great attitude towards customers)? Do you feel worse knowing they lost out on a lot of free advertising (again because clearly not great attitude towards customers)? Do you feel worse when they very kindly and gently stated that there were other service and quality issues (again clearly not concerned about customer's experience)?
I mean I could go on, but if the restaurant ran their business better, the video would have gone MUCH differently. So I wouldn't feel "bad" for them.
Maybe a small business shouldn't be offering AYCE in these times if they can't afford taking a hit....
I get that they want to bring people in, but there's different ways to go about it that won't end in double charging people
how often do you think they get competitive eaters in there? these are desperate times...
@@andrewb4984 True they are desperate times, but they are choosing to be an all you can eat restaurant. If they are losing money this way, maybe they should change that and come up with a new way for people to pay where they will profit. That is the restaurants problem, not theirs.
I have watched this video to it's entirety. The two men on here have every right to eat as much as they want because it is AYCE. However, a word of wisdom for these two young men: please be considerate when you are eating at AYCE places, especially if it is a mom and pop place. You know very well you guys are professional eaters and can eat up a storm. Restaurants are struggling with the pandemic and trying to recover as we speak. I do enjoy watching your content but I thought this was uncalled for.
Thank you. I feel like they know what they doing and getting away with it. Now come on they do this for a living. Going around paying less then $20 for a buffets knowing they can eat up to two hundred worth of food. It's redicolous 🤦🏿♀️
@@indiawingfield1148 also throwing it all up wasting all kinds of food. The human body is incapable of digesting that much so they puke it up before it rots in them. These people are gross
Idk... I think it’s a bit harsh on your guys part knowing that you can eat 5 pounds of fish each. You knowingly walk into these places expecting to shell out their whole kitchen and then act surprised when the restaurant can’t afford that. Like someone else said, big chain restaurants or big hotel buffets this wouldn’t be a problem but it did look like you two were the only ones in here
Not to mention you guys know damn well that “all you can eat” is measured for the AVERAGE person who would eat 2 or 3 plates max, not 10 pounds of fish 😁
I have such deep respect for you Joel, truly. You could have handled that situation a million different ways and you would have been completely justified but as always, such a class act in every way which I really admire. Yet another reason to love Joel Hansen! 💕
That’s why I truly enjoy watching his videos..he is always so respectful and has manners! He’s the best food eating channel out there because of that in my opinion :)
@@marialee8026 totally agree! Joel's the best!
Hands down great comment ❤

Lmao you sound like a Karen “it’s posted there so I can do it!!!” Shows you would rather hurt small restaurants then help them. oh well to each there own.
"All you can eat... but be gentle" would be a more fitting sign 🤣
But.. not that much 😂
"Dont u remember you told me you loved me babyy" And the look on your faces....🖤🖤
Ok. Tommy boy..lol
I'm actually torn about this exact issue. On one side, it SAYS AYCE, so technically they SHOULD honor it. On the other side, it's so unusual to have someone like both of you that can eat THAT MUCH, that for a small business it can be brutal to their operation. I just think that you guys have to take a step back and consider how your visit is going to impact the places you visit. It makes the video awkward and not enjoyable to watch.
The restaurant could put conditions on all you can eat, must have chips with each serving of fish, and maybe put a limit say up to 10 servings not many people are going to say that’s not fair
You know what really made the video awkward? The people that work there making it weird by question them about how much they are eating in an ALL YOU CAN EAT sale. Joel always praises and advertises the places he eats very well, and since this place acted so rude and disrespectful, they get no exposure or good press. They messed up big time, stop making Joel and Scott out to look bad for this.
They shouldn’t advertise ayce then
Then dont offer AYCE. Not every customer will eat 1 or 2 rounds only. Imagine going to a buffet and being cutoff.....you'd be singing a diff tune 🙄🙄🙄
Joel and Scott are obviously quite fit, I wonder if they were 400lbs each would an owner have the balls to ask or tell them they should stop eating. That would probably get the business shut down.
U complaining too much , think about the time we living . These places are losing lots of money and u eating for a party . You're a youtuber u should've paid extra or at least an extra 15 bucks , hopefully u tipped the waitress good
Feeding Joel is a literal investment in your restaurant. How can owners not see that??
SN: am I the only one that wants to see him in some lulu lemons now 😂😂
That place seemed like a small establishment in the middle of nowhere.
Look at the chairs and decor!!!
I doubt that their floundering business would have seen a marked uptick even if they had given Joel all the fish n chips he wanted.
You guys were too nice...I would’ve made a fuss about it and only pay what they advertised!
Canadians... and you know what 'they' say...
Wrong on both parts - yes AYCE should mean that but in the current climate there should be a limit either food or time ; over the limit should mean paying more. Wrong on Joel’s part because you are not a regular customer/diner and should at least inform the restaurant before hand.
Would have respected you if you paid more
You're right. It was "small" of him to not pay, as this isn't a "challenge" restaurant. When they do the challenge they show the COST if you fail, which is usually anywhere from $49.99 to $89.99, so he was in the wrong.
He isn’t a competitive eater he can just eat a lot. They should have put a disclaimer vs saying all you can eat.
Well, if we’re talking about current climate then they shouldn’t advertise AYCE at all then. What if a family or a group of friends of 4-5 eat the same amount as Joel and Scott? It’s the same thing.
Try Jerry’s fish house in Florence, MS. They offer whole and filets. And the sides are great as well. I’m sure they would love the advertisement. They are only open Friday-Sunday, I believe. Check them out for the next time you come through MS.
But I do have to say that fish did look really good 💕
I'm telling you from working in a cafe that did decent fish and chips, it takes about 20 seconds to dip a fish in flour and batter and drop it in some oil for about 5mins MAX, they definitely had a grudge for some reason
Absolutely. My local chippy does fresh fish when you go in and you're not in there for long waiting!
I can understand when all you can eat places like that limit how much you get at once to avoid waste, but yeah there's no reason to be so slow bringing it out if it's being eaten. That's just them being cheap and it means people will not come back. If you can't afford AYCE, change the menu. How they were treated was just ridiculous and I would have said so to that rude manager. I hope they tols him to shove his box of fish up his ass and didn't pay more. Don't reward bad behavior.
Most people can't eat as much as you guys. That being said, AYCE is AYCE. Having a guilt trip thrown at you is very unprofessional and completely uncalled for. You handled it very cool but I would have been very upset! You guys are truly awesome!
But Joel is like a black hole.
Even Jughead Jones would have quit long before those guys!
That's the gamble a restaurant takes with AYCE. there will always be some that eats more and some who don't
I owned a small business. At a good time of the economy your eating that amount would have hurt me. In during the pandemic, that would have wiped me out for the whole day.
If that is the case, you wouldn't offer up an all you can eat day.
I agree. You guys said they weren't busy and during a pandemic makes it even worse. People are struggling, no reason to take advantage of their promotion. Not to mention Joel consumed 2 bottles of ketchup which is highly abnormal....
@@mikeblaz they should change the promotion to limit the amount you can eat. If 2 guys taking advantage of your "all you can eat" promotion is going to bankrupt you, you shouldn't do it.
@@JustinK1613 I agree but seriously how many people are gonna be eating upwards of 6 plates of food? I like Joel but with the economy being as it is this is kinda trying to take advantage of the situation really!
@@JustinK1613 Or people should be more civil during these times. 3 servings is more than enough. We know those 2 can eat a lot, no need to hurt the restaurant just so Joel can get "likes". I think it was a real jerk/prick move by both of them...
Even during the pandemic our local fish restaurant had all you can eat - but it was take home. You were allowed 6 pcs per meal. That’s not bad at all :)
As a consumer, I'd be pretty upset if I was asked to pay more than the price advertised. $15 was the price the owner set. That was the arrangement going into this thing. Realistically he can't be upset that he underpriced his product. Pandemic or not.
I wouldn't be upset at all. I'd simply refuse. If they want to call the police or take me to court so they can be laughed out of business, they're free to do so. I'm happy to pay the advertised, as much as cutting me off is still false advertising, but not a single penny more.
This guy knows what's up
The average person can’t consume the amount you guys eat. Maybe you should be up front and tell them you are competition eaters. Then they can allow you or not to have all you can eat.
This appears yet again to be a small business not a chain not a place with deep pockets. Not like there is any reason they would be struggling trying to drum up business. All you can eat for a normal person, loss leader in the expectation that additional people come with you and order other items.Come on guys, you're smart enough to ask if what you were planning to do was ok. Try and be considerate and understanding but easy to say you care harder when you actually have to show it.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Please for the love of god say it louder for the people in the back!!! I 100% guarantee the people commenting “it’s their fault for having the AYCE” have No concept of how restaurants stay afloat. Especially during this pandemic.
If they host a AYCE its in the name simple as
STORE SHOULD CHANGE POLICY
@@grahammccarton5838 you come from an under educated standpoint as you think you know the law and want to approach from that standpoint vs being ethical. Lets look at it legally. You do enter into a good faith contact with the restaurant. Meaning each party is not trying to deprive the other of the benefit of entering into the contract. You get food they make money. Joel went in there knowing he has unusual eating habits which means he did not enter the contract in good faith. The business doesn't have to post fine print explaining contract law but many have started to to help rid themselves of rude self entitled customers
@@baddgcarma so you think he broke the law because of this imaginary contract you speak of?? And technically legally they should post the fine print as you say if they dont want people doing as Joel did 😋 have a good day

@@JohnWick-vp5we Dude...I could care less about competitive eating...I was simply trying to see the situation from the small business side. Pandemic really kicked people's butts economically...you seem a bit edgy.

We do not know who the establishment is, nor where it is, from the comments!
But he doesn’t badmouth the establishment lol…he correctly critiques a restaurant for false advertising. If you advertise AYCE you provide that experience. How many hundreds to thousands of customers have gotten this deal and MAYBE had 4-5 pieces of fish? This place makes their principle back and then some: asking them to pay more is some petty cheap shit and I’m glad Joel didn’t mention their name. Fuck em lol, hope they closed permanently.
Don't put "All you can eat sign" when you can't provide the foods for your customers.
Exactly
Realistically speaking, no normal costumer should be able to eat that much. That's why most places aren't afraid of saying AYCE. It's more of a marketing thing and they aren't exactly lying about it, for the average consumer that is.
That was so weird. I still loved your video. I wouldn't go back to that place ever again. I wouldn't pay more because you have already paid the price . Have a great day!!
Really guys your professional eaters so understand how many meals you've ate and how much money they are losing when this happens.
I don’t know how you’re so comfortably eating food made by people you’re pissing off.
They could’ve taken a shit on that fish before serving it to you for all you know.
The looks on their faces was priceless.
How much do you tip on these ayce places? The waitress and kitchen is working much harder..
Why does that matter? It’s visibly very quiet in the restaurant and if you’re going to offer AYCE you should have adequate staff on duty to handle it, so that’s nothing to do with Joel he has every right to eat as much as he can, as it’s literally all you can eat.

No line up outside the door busy there to recoup some of the losses he took for your feed.Give em a break
Thank you that's what I'm saying he pays for one person and eats as much as 10 person and he complain that they cut him off
If I owned a restaurant and literally saw you guys walk in to eat I would be very nervous. Normal people do not eat the amount of food both of you ate. This was not a normal buffet. We are talking about fish. Fish is not cheap. This restaurant lost money with all the fish you ate. however I understand your point of view. The restaurant did say "all you can eat fish and chips". But that's for normal people like me that could only handle maybe 3 or 6 pieces of fish. lol
It’s odd on both sides
Dont smash at an all you can eat when restaurants are in a economic collapse. Eat till you are satisfied not till the restaurant is out of business. Come on man..
Then why would a restaurant offer AYCE during a pandemic if they're gonna cut people off? Seems like a bad idea if they're struggling so bad.

@@Sm0kEyX420 I agree, this comment section is completely divided over this. Nice, compassionate people vs super selfish jerks. Anyone with an ounce of compassion, also taking the circumstances of the pandemic into consideration, would side with the struggling hospitality establishment. Society is f***ed!! This was super cringey to watch especially when Joel and Scott were expecting the viewers to completely side with them.
I'm mixed on this one. I dont think anyone has in their business model to have 2 guys eat at a box of fish. Between them both it was about 30 pieces. Average person eats 2 maybe 3. They ate at least $150 in fish and were annoyed they couldn't take advantage of eating more. I doubt anyone thinks to put a max limit on something like that, however that is truly the business' fault for not doing so.
The awkwardness from the employees came from the possibility of being in trouble by either higher management or ownership IMO.
I'm looking at this from a different perspective as someone who has owned and worked in the restaurant industry for 20yrs.
At the end of the day it did say all you can eat. So it is what it is.
Joel, my man, what are you up to?? You shouldn’t be going to AYCE places. What are you trying to achieve by going to these places? If you’re going to these places to promote them, why don’t you tell them who you are and how much you can eat? You’re an extreme/professional/competitive eater. It’s not fair on a small business for you to go and eat them out if business.
Granted it’s completely silly for an AYCE model to serve just one type of food with little carbs. But it’s not your place to go to these places and start a frenzy.
You’re one of the most polite decent objective people I’ve seen online and I can’t understand why you want to put yourself in these types of situations? Are you “fishing” for a fight or truly naive about the fact that big eaters like you shouldn’t be at these specialist AYCE places. Maybe a Buffett, fine but a small restaurant trying to make a buck in these tough times?
If I owned an AYCE small diner, and I saw you coming, I wouldn’t let you in. Or at least I would discuss some mutually beneficial terms prior.
Big eaters are less than 1% of the population. It’s basically an unfair match-up.
As I said before, next time you go to one of these small-time AYCE’s, you should play fair and tell them who you are and what you can do.
Unless you just want fireworks on your videos for your audience...
Well said!
If I figured out who Joel was then as a restaurant I would of done my best to give a satisfactory experience. It's sad this publicity was a missed opportunity for them.

They aren’t taking in account for two competitive eaters to sit there for 4+ hours, in totally gluttony, taking advantage of a 15 AYCE . Im sure they assumed two professionals like themselves would be more professional. Talk to them before hand, offer to pay a little more.

To be fair to these businesses they really are struggling especially after lockdown and lack of customers
Which is really why they should take steps to ensure each customer is a profitable one. The way most AYCE places do so is by implementing clear rules to keep someone from eating the profit. It's fair to expect that much from a business owner.
My coworker Pat and myself went to an ayce Asian buffet in Destin Florida for lunch. Pat can eat! About 45 minutes into lunch, a pissed off little Asian fellow came out of the kitchen straight to our table. He looked Pat right in the eye and told him, "You eat too much. You go now!!!" I was charged for my meal. Pats was free because he wasn't allowed to eat all he could. It was funny stuff 🤣.

Did you advise them that you're a competitive eater before you took advantage of their all you can eat? Small business during a pandemic and they lost money from your visit
Bro 15$. If your gonna do a all you an eat fish make it yourself. They gave you more than enough. I would have kicked you out a long time ago. Think about it. With all due respect.
Exactly 💯
Joel, this is very disappointing to see. You know better than this. Most of the people who watch your videos should know better than this as well. You can eat enough for 10 people, with great power comes great responsibility.
Why on earth would you target this restaurant? I am about to tell you an undeniable fact. AYCE restaurants are NOT for professional or competitive eaters. Period.
Not only did you decide to do major damage at this small restaurant, you brought another professional eater with you. Classy.
In times like these, we need to think of others before ourselves. The least you could have done is to leave a huge tip or agree to pay extra. How about leaving some of those hundreds of thousands of RUclips dollars to help out a struggling business that you just finishing exploiting during a pandemic?
