    The owner made it look a lot better on the website than what it really was in reality. Kind of like a chick on the net telling you she is a 125 lbs 9.5/10, then you meet her and she is a 180 lbs 5/10. People were expecting more and it angered them. So, they are screaming "false advertising" and demanding a refund and/or shutting the place down.
