‘Undercooked Food & Poor Service!’ Fans Slam Blake Shelton’s New Restaurant

Blake Shelton may want to stick to his singing career and leave his food and beverage endeavors behind – because his new restaurant has been slammed by unhappy fans who left vowing not to return!
In September 2017, Shelton opened his new restaurant, Ole Red, in Tishomingo, Oklahoma. He also plans to open another in Nashville, Tennessee sometime this year.
“For me, it’s as simple as, this is my home,” the country singer announced at the time of the Oklahoma unveiling.
Ole Red is reportedly inspired by Shelton’s third-chart hit, “Ol’ Red.” It’s a bar-restaurant and retail store with a “laid-back, fun-loving Southern Oklahoma lifestyle,” newsok.com reported.
The menu features Southern staples, like brisket nachos, chicken and waffles, pan fried meatloaf and a variety of burgers. But some fans had choice words for the Oklahoma eatery and broadcasted them all over the eatery’s Facebook page.
One user gave Shelton’s restaurant 2 out of five stars on the social networking site for poor service.
“Sooooo disappointed,” she wrote. “Probably the worst service I have ever received in a restaurant. We were seated for 10 minutes before our drink order was even taken.”
The user ended her bad review admitting she was “so sad and will not be back.”
Then another user explained she drove two and a half hours to make it to Shelton’s joint and it wasn’t worth it.
