By now we’ve all either read or at least heard about New York Times restaurant critic Pete Wells’ zero-star review of Oakland’s Locol. If you haven’t, here’s the basic takeaway: He liked the idea of the place, but really didn’t like the food.

The idealistic fast-food brand, founded by chefs Roy Choi and Daniel Patterson, offers cheap, nutritious meals to underserved neighborhoods.

Even if Wells’ article was somewhat heavy-handed (he compared one of the burger patties to a school lunch), ultimately it was fodder for internet conversations. Below, we compiled a list of responses over the last 24 hours.

Let’s start with Choi who took the high road, despite calls for the contrary. In the lengthy Instagram post, Choi explains how the Locol brand uses negative reviews.

“The truth is Locol has hit a nerve. Doesn’t mean all people love it, some people hate it. But no one is indifferent by it. That’s the spirit of Locol,” Choi said in the post. “(Wells) criticisms are a reflection of us and the nerve that Locol touches. And our imperfections.”

Chef Daniel Patterson has stayed pretty silent on social media regarding the review. He retweeted Choi’s post and he also sent out this link:

Chef Preeti Mistry of Oakland’s Juhu Beach Club tweeted not only about the review, but food industry coverage in general:

It’s the media that choose waste space taking down 2 highly regarded chefs that are trying to do good…whilse ignoring countless others — Preeti Mistry (@chefpmistry) January 4, 2017

Chef Ritchie Nakano (someone who never minces words on social media) said Wells missed the point of Locol. And the food is actually pretty good.

I’ve eaten @welocol . It’s fucking delicious. It’s not perfect but it’s tasty,cheap,and doesn’t leave you feeling like shit.Fuck that review — Richie Nakano????????????? (@linecook) January 4, 2017

the lede is how it’s revolutionary & they’re doing this risky, virtuous thing and his takeaway is that he didn’t like the chili & chicken — Richie Nakano????????????? (@linecook) January 4, 2017

Wells tweeted the review this morning. One person commented and called it “tone deaf.”

I’ve read 1000s of words about the vision for Locol. Here are about 1,000 on what I thought of the execution. https://t.co/Etcy78TvWn — Pete Wells (@pete_wells) January 4, 2017

A little later, Wells tweeted this (maybe in response to the people angry about the Locol review?).

Our culture overvalues cynicism, undervalues skepticism, and is vague about the difference. — Pete Wells (@pete_wells) January 4, 2017

Here’s a gallery of comments over the last few hours on Twitter:

.@pete_wells thinking that Locol shouldn’t be criticized 4 falling short bc of the mission is far more detrimental to the long term success. — Billy Barlow (@realbutcherbill) January 4, 2017

Locol is awesome. — Francis Lam (@Francis_Lam) January 4, 2017
