A public dispute surrounding Steff Grilli, a grill restaurant operating in Lasnamäe, Tallinn, has entered a new phase, with the restaurant owner Stefan deciding to publicly respond to restaurant critic Igor Burlakov.

Burlakov recently published a detailed post questioning the restaurant's explanations regarding cash register procedures, shashlik portion sizes, and meat preparation methods. According to the critic, the restaurant's statements did not align with what he believed to be true.

Steff Grilli owner Stefan, however, believes the criticism has crossed the line of good taste. "Does anyone really think I would damage my name, reputation and business for a few dozen euros?" Stefan asked, pointing out that allegations related to serious violations are unsubstantiated and unfair.

According to Stefan, such public criticism damages the restaurant's reputation without foundation, as the claims are based on assumptions rather than proven facts. He emphasizes that the restaurant has long-standing experience and that responsible conduct towards its customers is important to him.
