Keith Lee responds to Chad ‘OchoCinco’ Johnson’s criticism about his Atlanta food reviews

Posted on November 6, 2023

Keith Lee believes Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson is “completely entitled” to his opinions, even though Lee does not agree with some of them.

The former football player took exception to Lee’s critiques of some Black-owned restaurants in Atlanta and expressed that during a recent appearance with former player/sports commentator Shannon Sharpe on an episode of “Nightcap with Unc & Ocho” YouTube series.

Sharpe brought up some recent conversation about Lee’s reviews and Johnson expressed his dislike.

“I don’t like the fact of what he’s doing. I don’t like the critiquing of our restaurants and having people, and talking bad about our god**** businesses,” Johnson said. “You know how hard it is for us to even get in the food industry and to have our own restaurants. What are we doing?”

Lee, a popular TikTok food critic, went viral after posting a series of reviews on Atlanta restaurants that included information about how he was unable to get food at some of the establishments.

Those videos resulted in social media commentary about the Southern city’s customer service in the restaurant industry, death threats from those who were upset about Lee’s comments and even rapper Cardi B weighing with her own difficulties with service at some area restaurants.
