Ok
Hey CollegeHumor, just a quick feedback You gotta improve the interface in Dropout man. The videos don't run smoothly, my app crashes quite a bit and please include a date filter. I got it but i am not too happy with it tbh. Might drop it next month.
After 5 weeks of trial, I felt guilty to not go with the yearly subscription. Now I'm signed up, but still watching them here
When a restaurant think it's fancy enough to only have reservations... Yet the place is empty.
classic
Well they exageratted in this but i work in a restaurant that isnt fine dining but it is more upscale.
Sometimes we have walk ins that we cant accomodate and they get mad and start pointing at empty tables but they dont understand is that we have people with reservations who will need those tables soon. And no one wants to be sat down and rushed to finish in 20 minutes from the moment they sit.
Just because the place isnt packed at that moment doesnt mean it wont be packed 20 min later.
Thats just my experience though
@@dropout I can relate, most people decide to dine mostly at the same time, so the difference between 7:50 and 8:00 might be about 100 costumers and 50 more coming 10 minutes later.
And of course there are always those guys who come 5 minutes before we close with some big ass meal and the kitchen is going one hour behind on the cleaning.
Been there, done that, they didn’t make it through the summer.
Well of course nobody eats there! They’re too many reservations!
It's like CollegeHumor has been reading my diary. I've literally walked into a restaurant looked at the ceiling and walked out.
honestly you should stop leaving it in that drawer
@@dropout 😂🤣
@@dropout
😂😂🤣
Tbh, I find that the more ornate the ceiling is equals the price of the food changes per region and type of food, you know if you enter the midwest, look up and see a fancy dragon, city or sky and the food is chinese food you can spend 30-50 bucks to feed 6 people with leftovers for everyone, if the ceiling has a simple trim and or no decorations, maybe some fancy lighting somewhere and doesnt look run down it's fancy chinese where your spending 5+ bucks just for a cup of their soup, but generally the chef is amazing and they have a authentic chinese menu.
If the resturant is american and has live plants in fancy containers? Your looking at a few hundred bucks spent on 4 people so on and so forth
get some class
as someone who worked at a fancy restaurant... painfully accurate. what's weirder is that the regular guests who attend these types of places actually LIKE the breathing-down-your-neck service
Clearly rich babies who never took care of themselves.
That's insane. They actually like having servants around
I actually requested once to leave me alone lmao
It's true I want them at my beck and call
Their research team should given a raise for accuracy
negative. they shall stay locked in the knowledge caverns. the upworld...frightens them, what with all the speed and daylight
CollegeHumor is that where Pat’s body went?
Ahahah, "amarguinha" is really a portuguese drink made from bitter almonds. Is actually very sweet. I had some trouble trying to understand her pronunciation, ahahah!
Her facial changed really quickly when she found out they had no reservations.
If you've ever been a hostess at a fine dining restaurant you would understand. lol
@@Kdawn1995 I guess we'll never understand then...
@V B I understood that reference
@V B (dorsia)
Here's our wine list
*Slams down Bible*
" That's the Bible"
"Yes the only wine we serve here is either from before Jesus or from jesus"
" Excuse me from jesus?"
" Yes as in the blood of Christ"
"Ah yes"
RayBeebles The Most Amazing Podcast For diners on a budget we offer the water that Jesus turned into wine for a mere 10000000000000000000000 a sip.
This is an old comment but that is absolutely hilarious. Like they have Jesus in the back making wine. lol
Couldn’t it also be water that Jesus turned into wine
They'll fill your tummy with yummy food.... Right after they fill your head with doubts of your self-worth.
No Refunds it’s not fill your tummy more like you’ll feel hungry again after 10 min
Fill...
I highly doubt that
Also yummy?
It gets over before your tastebuds even activates...
Lol
No Refunds please answer me are you commenting under every video or am ı going insane
@@xxxprogamerxxx5909 you are going insane.
@@xxxprogamerxxx5909 Are you chronicling his CZcams viewing habits? Because that's a creepy fucking question.
Is it a fancy restaurant if the prices are displayed on the menu tho?
@Anon Commenter i agree. Specially with alcohol. Ive been to so many places that dont list any price on drinks. Its very common in miami
@@albenmurcia4716 Reminds me of a time my parents went on vacation and they got troled by the owner, we're portuguese, and Madeira is one of our islands, so they went there on vacation, and madeira is very popular for foreign tourists, and the owner when he saw 2 portuguese people gave them a lot of attention, my parents ordered wine, and when the wine arrived the waiter came with like a cart, and he stood there pouring wine as they went alone, always pointing at a "seal of quality" that came in the bottle.
When my father asked the owner how much the bottle cost he said "oh don't worry its a bit over 200€"
It was actualy regular wine and the owner just played a prank on them
There are countries where it's allowed to not show the price? o.O Seems shady.
If they don't show the prices, how are you supposed to bribe your Mistress?
It's not fancy if there's menu at all. In fanciest places where typical cork sniffers hang out you're just supposed to know what's on, or order the usual even if you're first time visitor.
I once was in a fancy restaurant and I tried to pour myself a bottle and a waiter ran up to me, took the bottle out of my hand and poured the water into my glass.
I felt useless, belittled and rude at the same time.
Well you gotta see it from their eyes. If a manager sees you pouring your own water they will get ripped a new asshole. I. My restaurant we get bitched at if a customers water glass is not always full
geezus. christ o_o T_T
@@albenmurcia4716 if that's the case, like I really want all restaurant owners to watch this so they know how it isn't actually that comforting so we both can be happy
@@albenmurcia4716 that's actually annoying.
@@meneither3834 i agree though i also understand it from their point of view. People drink a lot of water and get pissy when it isnt refilled. Yes to you and i this seems annoying but people who have money that frequent these places come to expect this type of service and get pissed of they dont get it.
I'm the waiter realizing that this table isnt going to be the best tip.
Please sneak in “and that they have to heavily tip us“ and then repeat “and that they have a heavenly visit” next time you're working. That would be so hilarious
For me it was elderly men. Yet elderly women were my best tippers
I exchange the "best tip" people for the "non bitchy people". Thanks.
Ya it’s almost like they forgot their actual audience...
@@HelgaCavoli Can't relate. I would rather have someone spit on me and tip me 35+% bc they can afford it than be super nice and tip me 10-15%. "Non bitchy" never paid the bills.
"You heard me correctly THIS TIME" was the best line XD
I feel like true panic comes out when there are no prices on the menu. I knew I walked into a way too fancy restaurant when I looked at the menu and I no hints on how much ANYTHING costs.
Just ended up ordering desserts to be safe and the bill still came up to over $50.
I was with my family in europe and we were just eating based on google stars so we stumbled upon a restaurant which required us to enter a hotel, we just thought we were lost, until we entered and the waiter handed us each a fucking ipad to order our food, the plates looked tiny and there were no prices, we asked for some popcorn which were 10 euros! We just ate them left lol
To the hostess, that was the best condescending line i have ever heard
"If you left now, it would reflect you poorly"
Reflect poorly on what, though?
i mean...your table is on the left, follow me...
@@OneEyeShadow The biggest fears people have nowadays. Being rude and looking broke doing it.
This is distressingly accurate.
It’s even worse when you are already seated, and you open the menu after they served bread... then your heart sinks as you see the prices.
And 5 minutes later, the place fills up with people in suits and dresses while you are wearing shorts and a t-shirt...
Been there, done that, and now I suffer from PTSD
To combat your PTSD, it sometimes helps to reconfront what gave you PTSD.
Go to a Red Robin and/or (if youre in Canada) a White Spot. Each one looks fancy enough to bring up the feelings of PTSD so you can reconfeont them but each one is cheap enough that you won't have to go broke buying a meal and drinks for "therapy"
lol just do the opposite. "Oh, you consider this fancy enough to wear suits and dresses? How charming."
Leon Campa or when they charge for the bread
@@samdragonborn5864 you're a genius
STOP SELF DIAGNOSING YOURSELF.
this used to scare me but after working at one of these I have no shame give me something cheap and sweet to drink with lots of alcohol
we'll take a smirnoff ice white claw mixed please and thank you
Jack and coke. Make it a double.
I’ll have uhhhhhhhh
I'd like a, uhhhh
Guns are cool, sex with hot girls
I like how the solution at the end was to chug the water, stuff the bread in their mouth, and rob the utensils.
as a former fine dining waiter,
I'm sorry
Ah Thanks
Juan Miguel Fernandez explain
Thank you for your service
@@L_Maris The Floor manager literally would tell you to do/say those annoying things like constantly asking them if they'd : "like to try the new Wine" or "just ask them how their day was" even if its clear they're not in a talking mood.
I work at a "fancy" restaurant and it's scary how accurate this is
Is the hand signals thing real?
@@TheAlps36 depends where, even at some lower end restaurants they have little signals to tell a manager when somethings wrong, some fancier restaurants will literally have someone just to fill drinks and use signals for that
The worst part is when you're remembered you didn't want to try anything new, as you bite into something less enjoyable than the 3x cheaper alternative you really wanted.
that is an odd way of saying portugal
I think he was trying to pronounce it in a fancy way, but he didn't full commit
i'm sorry are trying to refer to POR-choo-GALL, the ancient maritime kingdom west of ETH-PANYA?!
@@BlackiJ11 get out.
@@dropout *now* you've got it!
Is that where TA-PAS are from? 😂
I get this, especially when you find a Groupon or a deal for some place, go in, and realize you're going to be the cheapest customer there. "Thats a lovely menu, but I'll be sticking strictly to the discount you put online to lure people who you thought might make up for it in cocktails."
Let's go with water?
Sparkle or still??
Tap.
Shit that's not even an option.
Yet they bring it.
I think that's always been a trick they use. If you say still, they do bottled and charge. If you say tap, well you get tap.
@@skullfullofbooks7398 I do this for a living. Can confirm.
@@Kdawn1995 Really? how much do your charge for the bottle of water.
@@_Atzin Too much? lol Like, it depends on the brand and it's different @ every place but I think at my current job (in Palm Beach FL so everything is expensive) we charge 3.50 for still, 4.50 for sparkling. It's a large bottle for the table.
@@Kdawn1995
Lol what would you say if I went to your restaurant and (besides ordering food like a normal person) specifically demanded a jug full of tap water be filled and placed on the table?
I love how college humor has fully shifted it's subject matter for all us old-ass millenials that started watching 10 years ago.
"You heard me right this time"
HE WAS AWARE OF THE DISTORT THE WHOLE TIME!!
THERE WAS UNEATEN BREAD THE WHOLE TIME XD
"Here is our wine list." Lays a friggin Bible on the table
Now do a reverse version of this where the restaurant is a loud, disgusting, buffet, full of crying children, and there's always a person choking on food in the background because they're scarfing food down too quickly... Sorry, just speaking from experience.
Great idea, "Oh No, This Restaurant is Too Cheap."
Get yourself a bistro, partners love bistros
You mean a McDonalds?
Somebody I was recalling a specific memory from Golden Corral.
Somebody I shutter at the idea of a McDonalds buffet
I've been bouncing around a career in hospitality and I've learned that the gold standard is to work in a shitty bar because luxury is miserable for literally everyone involved
The sound editing for this is AMAZING. Dial up noises is perfect
Omg Vic in a collegehumor video?! Thought they were just a dropout find. So awesome to see them
Holy shit, this is actually too relatable😂This same thing happened to my friend and me when we were craving Italian while just driving around LA for fun. We caved and I ended up spending like $70 on literally like 3 small strips of steak and some tiny green lasagna. Food was absolutely amazing, but damn did the bill hit like a truck lol
Been looking for a good Italian place - which restaurant was it?
me and some friends were bar hopping in Manhattan, 4 or 5 places in we walked into this place, they said sit anywhere, we sat at a table and they gave us a menu the cheapest thing was a glass of wine for 109$ we slowly stood up and left before anyone took our order
What’s even funnier is that “barnyard” is an actual aroma for fancy wine profiles
My Mom went to a restaurant like this, the table ordered some crab and literally every time she put a shell on a little plate, a person would come take it away and give her a new one....she finally told them to stop and to leave the plate until she was done cause she was worried about the water being used up to wash all the plates🤣 (not even joking)
You should do a second part to this where a person accustom to fine dining gets invited out to a restaurant like applesleez
why is vic a really good actor tho lol
*"you heard me correctly THIS TIME"*
Is literally the best line
Atleast they're on the same budget, ever been dragged to a fancy restaurant by a rich friend.
your rich friend shouldve done the decent thing and paid for you.
Aw man you missed the perfect end gag where they finally do order something that's expensive af and turns out to be something ultra tiny and not at all filling XD
The pop up wait staff always scared me
A real fancy restaurant would watch from afar and leave them to settle in and talk if that seemed what they wanted, then as soon as they look around for a waiter, bam! you jump in. So that part didn't feel genuine, unless this is supposed to be a place that's only trying to appear fancy to fleece customers with high prices. Otherwise, though, this felt very accurate.
i have no shame in buying an appetizer as a full meal for myself at these places honestly
Nothing wrong with that. But if you dont want to spend money dont go to these places. If i go somewhere like this id rather order a bunch ofnthings and share it all
Happened to me and a friend of mine once, we sat down, looked at the menu, stood up, left as quick as we could
I wish my waiter was Hozier.
Not to be dramatic or anything, but I would LITERALLY DIE for Alfred Aquino
@@KSO96 that is quite dramatic
Yes, Almost
take me to lunch
This is so fucking accurate - I once walked into a pizza place with a friend that looked nice but normal on the outside and was literally the fanciest place I have ever seen on the inside, a host in a tuxedo looked at us (me in god damn cargo shorts) and asks if we have a reservation, then when we said no decides to seat us anyway. He heads off to find us a server and me and my mate take one look at each other, another at the other guests, the priceless menus written in what I must assume was High Elvish and literally run out of the restaurant while ducking so that he doesn't see us (he did - we fan faster).
I did this once and the worst part was I was ALONE! Have you ever accidentally gone to a fancy restaurant by yourself in a tie dye tee shirt and sweatpants only to realize the place is WAY too high end for you but being too awkward to leave? It's the worst, i wanted to crawl in a hole and never come out.
Oh I just turn around and leave. They won't remember you five minutes after you've left if you haven't even talked to anyone or if it's before you ordered.
this five minute long comedy sketch was scarier than the majority of horror fillms i've watched
I've been to a place where they expected a tip on top of the twenty percent they add to the bill. And by expected, I mean the manager brought the check back to me and passive-aggressively explained that an additional ten percent was typical. I've never written a bigger or angrier zero on a receipt.
Oh. Breaking news is moving to Dropout. Of course it is...
Joe I don’t think College Humor got it... or else they wouldn’t have hearted it
Hippie, I think it was a cheeky heart
This should become a series of them attempting to find a cheap restaurant but the waiters keep finding them XD
Once ordered cups of coffee and a slice of orange dark chocolate cake slices each with a buddy of mine at this bourgeoisie cafe we came across. Without checking prices first. Big mistake. Had to ask which currency the bill was in. Even after waiter confirmed dollars we still had to make sure he meant actual Benjamins.
OH MY GOD IT'S BEEN ABOUT 4 YEARS AND IVE ONLY REALIZED THAT IT'S VIC??!?!?!
I can never eat at these places because my brain keeps converting the prices to joints and bags of chips I could get instead.
Lily is literally the female version of Trapp.
Change my mind.
Nah, IMO her sketches are way too on-the-nose
I should add that my comment mostly relate to the actors "personas" or "characters" instead of them as real life people. For instance, I think everyone knows that Katie must be far different personality wise in real life then she is in her sketches.
Me going to any restaurant where they have the napkins in a special fold.
“...and that they have a heavenly visit”
Reminds me of that time I had tomato slices with no flavour in NYC that cost like $15.
And the worst part is, it wasn't even a full tomato's worth.
@@zukaro what was thebdish? Was it literally tomato slices and nothing else? If so what do you expect it to taste like? If it was a burrata type thing then generally you are oaying for the cheese and balsamic they use which can both be pretty expensive depending on quality
Some of the restaurants you have are genuinely just there to rip you off. They can't do actual nice food so they pick on a cuisine and make it quirky instead and that quirkiness makes it genuinely worse than the cheapest food of the cuisines home country. Although, $15 is a normal price for a starter in a slightly fancy place.
I love Lily’s videos. I feel like they speak directly to me! 4:24
Can I have Chicken Nuggets and French Fries?
Yes, at the McDonald's down the street.
Some of this is kinda like the restaurant I work at hahaha.
omg i didn’t recognize vic
“Here’s the wine list” *drops the bible*
Rich person: Ah, $2012? A paltry sum, bring two bottles
Me, fresh off a B99 binge: I'll have your eight dollar-est bottle of wine please
It's hilarious how the waiter just watched and didn't stop the ladies while they are taking the spoons and bread.
If there's no prices on a menu I'm *out* of there...
First time in a Fancy Restaurant...
Felt the the same way!
It's all about swagger!
(That and knowing a few basic cheats.)
Ask for how much the Pre-Prix Cost.
(Also don't be afraid to ask what anything cost! Don't be intimidated; your the Customer damn it!)
Be firm but not rude.
Smile every ten minutes the waitstaff magical appears.
Pretend like you a character in a movie in which you are in a scene in a resturant.
And oh don't forget to breath!
Easy peasy! 🍷
Looks like the sandwich place reviewed by Katie

I love the fire exit sign above the closed window. Its a nice way to tell us we're not safe while eating
the waiters names are hozier and fjörd
of course they are
I love the way they showcase how anxiety actually feels in this one.
Oh my God, this is the best writing I have seen from college humor. 5 stars.
I fucking love Lily's friend just grabbing tableware and bread at the end
this has happened to me before and it was the most stressful thing ever. we planned on going to a pub and dressed in shorts and tshirts, got to the place and thought it was weird that everyone was dressed super nice. the waiter came by and started listing out a bunch of fancy specials we couldnt understand. we couldnt understand anything in the menu because it was all in italian and the lowest price was like $120 at that point we just left lol
Oh gods I remember going in one of those with my auntie who just got back from her work abroad. There was barely any people but most of the tables have reserved signs, apparently we had a reservation too, that alone should've clued me in on how fancy it was... then the menu arrived and I almost spat my drink coz everything costs more than my weekly school allowance.
I liked how they tried to get the simplest, cheapest and at the end dine and dash with their utensils too
Love the sass "you heard me correctly this time." 😂
That was actually hilarious 😂 college humor steppin up
Ah, Amarguinha feom Portugal! Great choice. Very sweet liquor, with a slightly sour aftertaste.
Portugal, caralho! 🇵🇹 🇵🇹 🇵🇹
I recently went to Apropoe's in Baltimore, MD. It wasn't quite this fancy, but I was out of sorts to be at such a fancy restaurant. The BLT was $12.
It was pretty good at least.
A drunk staggered into a Catholic church
He entered a confessional booth, sat down and said nothing. The priest coughed a few times to get his attention, but the man stayed silent. Finally the priest knocked loudly on the wall three times. The drunk mumbled "Ain't no use in knocking, there's no paper on this side either"
im more disturbed that this entire restaurant seems to be staffed entirely by goddamned sorcerers...
I was so stressed out by this video omfg
I hate when waiters don't leave you alone! It stresses me out so much when they keep coming to the table to take stuff away or ask if everything's fine
It's part of the job. Lol

@@Kdawn1995 true that lol, but i'm not sure i get what you're trying to say? i mean i've been to cheap places where the waiters still kept coming to the table trying to accommodate me
@@tagliatelle I actually was trying to respond to someone else who was saying they don't tip. Sorry I'm dumb.
Vic is hauntingly beautiful. And the sketch is spot on. CH never disappoints.
For record real restaurant sommes are really good at helping people who don't understand wine because most people don't
Oh god this happened to me when I was a 21 year old intern who got dragged to a fancy dinner with my work team to meet with some counterparts from a foreign office. So not only did the restaurant intimidate me I tried to make myself invisible and not embarrass myself or my team. I think I ordered a garden salad and slowly picked at it as I stared at the wall and listened to them talk business the whole night.
This is how the Cheesecake Factory felt when I was in high school
Lol
Just got my undergrad degree and cheesecake factory is still intimidating.
@@chovue2363 Well the menu is a light novel, and they keep asking if you're ready to order every other minute after you sit down. I get that you're not supposed to read the whole menu, but let me skim it at least. No idea why I'm eating there in the first place. I don't even like cheesecake.
This gave me a lot of anxiety
Rewatching this years later and... Vic!
That was simultaneously stressful and hilarious!!!!
I have been in this situation a couple of times. Had a look at the menu then just said nope and walked out.
The crumb comb!!! Ahhh!!!
A small detail I love is that "you heard me correctly this time" implies the waiter was actually saying the things they heard before
From italy, the nocino is one of the best drinks you can have, my favourite!
Lily's skin and hair are gorgeous, Barbie doll perfect😍
