Woman goes to esteemed California restaurant. Then she sees how they served her beef Wellington: ‘I like my beef rare but…’

This Los Angeles food-fluencer calls herself the “OG Anti- Influencer” for her honest reviews of food scams and wins around the city. On this episode, Kerry (@comfywith_kerry) visits Domenico's Italian Chophouse at the Truffle Pig Winery in Temecula, California.

Kerry is calling it one of the most disappointing meals of the year.

Kerry's TikTok page is filled with reviews for restaurants in L.A. but also broader California and other states. She says that so many hyped restaurants in the area are actually a scam and her page is here to help steer people in the right direction.

Domenico's was Kerry last stop, and unfortunately, it did not make the cut. They tried the Beef Wellington, the angel hair pasta, and the chicken parmigiana. None of them seemed to impress.

Why does it look ‘raw?'

One of the things Kerry was most excited to try was the Beef Wellington. However, she had some concerns about the way it was cooked.

“It almost looks raw. Doesn't that look raw to you?” Kerry says to the person she's dining with. She shows the inside of the Beef Wellington looking particularly red.

Some folks in the comments agree that it's raw; others are unsure.

“Isn't that how Beef Wellington supposed to be?” asked one viewer.

“Tht wellington is cooked medium alive,” joked another viewer.

“I like my beef rare but that's raw af lol,” noted another.

She feels misled

Kerry was also generally disappointed because the plates did not look like the pictures online.

“While the photos online looked fabulous. The food was not,” she says.

The angel hair pasta was advertised on the menu as coming with a “parmesan cloud.” The pasta brought out to Karen did not have a cloud of parmesan at all. Instead, it had parmesan sprinkled on top.

Lastly, she says the chicken parmigiana “needs more sauce immediately.”

The video has over 10,000 likes and over 200,000 views.

People are on her side

“Drive down the road to gourmet Italia for the best pasta you've ever had!” one comment says.

“I would've IMMEDIATELY SENT IT BACK,” says another.

“I got the lower level caviar because I really wanted to try caviar and it was so expensive for 1 chip I expected to get a good scoop of caviar and I got about 3 little pods on top of my chip with a creama so I couldn't even taste it. Waist of money and the portions we got for lunch were WAY too small. Not enough to fill you up at all,” shares another patron of the restaurant.

Another local seems to share Kerry's general sentiments about the quality of restaurants in the area and how they are overhyped.

“As someone who's unfortunately lived in this cesspool for 20+ years. All the restaurants are bad. We have a horrid food scene that locals will say is amazing. But it really isn't,” they shared. “If ANYTHING go to Goat and Vine in old town. That's the ONLY restaurant worth going to here.”

However, it seems like some folks have had success at the restaurant

“Oh wow when I went in January everything we ate was absolutely delicious. That Wellington looks gross,” another comment says.

While Kerry seems to be a well-versed food critic, it's important to remember that food reviews are very subjective. Everyone has different tastes and preferences.

Subplot has reached out to Kerry for comment via email and TikTok message and to Domenico's via email.
