The Upper West restaurant took out an ad in the Los Angeles Times' Sports section, presumably in an effort to boast about their tagline 'Wholly focused on food.'

Just way too focused on food. Wholly focused. Can't fault them.

And to all of the angry commenters on the restaurant's Facebook page, Upper West responded by saying they have 'culinary tunnel vision.'
