On TikTok, one user commented that Lee was “not lying about the alcohol thing.” “DC restaurants spend a lot of time on their bar menu but the food is mediocre,” they claimed. Another person exclaimed: “Just come to Baltimore, which we repeat is not the DMV!” Meanwhile on X, formerly Twitter, several users believed that Lee was left unimpressed by the DC food scene because his orders were relegated to his signature TikTok style – aka, food that can be eaten in his car.
