In an unexpected twist in the world of celebrity dining, culinary star Guy Fieri made headlines by reportedly ejecting legendary actor Robert De Niro from one of his popular restaurants. The reason? Fieri, known for his spiky hair and larger-than-life personality, allegedly told De Niro to “go dine in some woke place.” This surprising incident has sparked widespread discussion, combining elements of Hollywood drama, culinary culture, and the ever-persistent debate over “wokeness” in America.
The altercation reportedly took place at one of Fieri’s flagship restaurants, Guy’s American Kitchen & Bar, located in the heart of New York City. According to witnesses, De Niro arrived with a small group of friends for a casual dinner. Known for his discerning palate and frequent patronage of top-tier dining establishments, De Niro’s presence initially caused a buzz of excitement among the staff and other diners.
However, the excitement quickly turned into confusion and tension when Fieri himself made an appearance. It’s rare for the busy restaurateur to personally visit his establishments, which made his sudden entrance all the more notable. Witnesses claim that Fieri approached De Niro’s table with a stern expression and engaged in a brief, heated conversation with the actor.
While the exact details of their conversation remain unclear, multiple sources confirm that it ended with Fieri making a blunt statement to De Niro. “You should go dine in some woke place,” Fieri allegedly said before asking De Niro to leave the restaurant. The actor, visibly taken aback, reportedly complied without causing further commotion, leaving the establishment with his party in tow.
