Ahn Yoo-seong, a well-known chef, was also eliminated due to what critics allege is a vague rule. Neither the production team nor netizens expected it. This led the Internet to explode with criticism and sarcastic comments about the vague evaluations of place and criteria.

Critics have argued that the reasons for eliminating were based only on sales, so the evaluation did not include other important variables, such as net profit, customer satisfaction, and restaurant management.

In an unreleased video of Ahn Yoo-seong, viewer comments highlighted concerns about fairness and the show's direction.Many expressed sympathy for Ahn.  There were comments that the situation was unfair and that Ahn should not not have been eliminated.
