He said: "It depends on the restaurant, but servers tend to taste most of the dishes on the menu and can give you insight into what the chef has added and what the locals have," which can lead to some "great recommendations".

The renowned chef also warned against restaurants making grandiose claims about their food, such as "world's best," "famous," or "best in the country."

According to Ramsay, another red flag is an excessively long list of specials on the menu, which may not be as enticing as they appear. In a chat with The Mail, Gordon highlighted: "Specials are there to disappear throughout the evening. When they list 10 specials, that's not special."
