Restaurant bombarded with 1-star reviews after Trump demanded protesters be removed from diner

The Google reviews of a Washington D.C. seafood restaurant have been brutally blasted by a horde of anti-Trump protestors, after the President was allowed to dine there last night (9 Sept).

The right-wing leader was accompanied by the US' Vice President, JD Vance, as he attempted to grab a bite in Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak and Stone Crab. The political pair were also joined by several other government officials, including the country's Secretary of State, Marco Rubio and Defence Secretary, Pete Hegseth.

The group's arrival outside of the hospitality venue caused an initial stir, as a number of protestors chanting 'free Palestine' were seen on the street opposite alongside some Republican supporters, who cheered for Trump.

After they entered Joe's, however, the group were faced with criticism on a more intimate level, with a number of outraged activists having made their way into the establishment to slam Trump's refusal to condemn Israel's ongoing genocide attempt in Gaza.

Whilst some attendees waved around their Palestine flags, others simply clapped on the sidelines.

"Free D.C., free Palestine, Trump is the Hitler of our time," others yelled.

In footage which has since gone viral online, though, the 79-year-old politician can be seen gesturing for the protestors to be escorted away by Secret Service members.

Unsurprisingly, the popular chain of eateries has now been been torpedoed with 1-star reviews, with critics slamming the restaurant's managers for allowing the Republican leaders inside, and for seeing the protestors removed from the premesis.

Still visible on the firm's Google reviews is one comment that reads: "I prefer my seafood without the fascism."

A second added that Joe's 'caters to a fascist President and his regime', whilst a third hit out simply, 'You guys suck!!!'.

As cited by the Daily Beast, another user poked fun at Trump's infamous ketchup adoration when it comes to red meat consumption, adding: "Steak was so bad someone at another table dumped ketchup all over it."

The publication also mentioned another user, who reportedly referenced Jeffrey Epstein's recently-released 'birthday book' which included a quote from the President, as well as firing a shot at the defence minister.

They wrote: "Honestly kinda weird. There was someone very loud and was the colour of orange?

"That wasn’t the craziest bit though, it was that the man kept doodling little girls on the menu. Like a large amount of this from someone with small hands. Then the group that was with him just ignored this and said it was a hoax."

The same user continued: "Tried to go to the bathroom and some drunk challenged me to push-ups before swearing and running off to his phone about a bombing? Hope it wasn’t the janitor. Pete was his name?"

The same news outlet also quoted one user, who supposedly penned: "Had a great experience and food was delicious but glad I showed up days before Trump did. Had I known this place was going to accept racist anti-Americans like Trump inside, I would have never spent my money."

The left-leaning activist group Code Pink has since claimed responsibility for the protest, taking to X (formerly Twitter) to release a simultaneous statement, which read: "They feast while Gaza starves. Trump is the Hitler of our time.

"Free DC. Free Palestine! Stop terrorising communities all over the world!!"
