(Andrew: Correct.) (Gordon spits out his dish) That, is Absolute Dogshit. Have a little taste. (Andrew: Could use some salt.) You think you're smart, yeah? (Andrew: I have my moments.) And how long have you been cooking? (Andrew: About 10 years.) What a waste of 10 years. Get back in fuckin' line." (Andrew quietly gets back in line)
  • (To Dewberry) "Blueberry?"
  • (Reveals Chris' dish) "Bloody hell. (Chris: It's mine Chef. Chris: Executive Chef.) Executive Chef? (Chris: Executive Chef.) Can you just explain to me what it is? (Chris: Salmon roasted on a plank of cedar.) I think you're a plank. (Chris: Well, I don't really know what that means, Chef.) 'Plank' means 'an idiot'. Why is it raw on the bottom? (Chris: Well, it's medium-rare. That's how I would eat my salmon.) You need to clean your glasses. It's raw. (Chris: I don't agree Chef-) Let me tell you something, and listen to me. You've got a lot to learn. So be a good plank. Get back in line.(Chris: Thank you, Chef.)"

(shoves the plate to Chris) Sorry, I told you fucking earlier. Hello? And you knew it was fucked up, yeah? (Chris: You're right chef.) And an executive chef doesn't serve shit like that, do they? (Chris: I apologize chef.) No, you apologize. Don't you DO IT AGAIN, OK?"
    • (About Chris) "Chris has a huge chip on his shoulder. He's an executive chef, which basically means you sit on your arse all day long, and clearly he's been doing that for the last 10 years."
  • (To Jimmy) "So, if it doesn't look good to you, why are you serving it to me? That looks like a dog's dinner. And you want me to serve that in there? And you want to walk away winning a restaurant? (Shoves the plate to Jimmy) Fuck yourself. Get in the bin. Get that shit outta there."
    • (After shoving the plate to Jimmy) "How can you do that? What do we talk about standards? What do we say about 'if it's not right'? So you want that to go out? Is that your best shot? (Jimmy: No, chef.) And what were you going to think of me, tomorrow morning if you watched me serve that? You were going to think I'm the biggest arsehole in America, aren't you? And you expect me to serve that? For as long as I'm alive, big boy, I'm never going to serve that shit."
  • (To Andrew) "What do you mean, how does this look? Hey, Andrew, get out of the habit. Come here, you. I'm not going to run to you.

OK?!"

(Customer: That doesn't do much for me.) Yeah, right. Can I just say you do fuck all for me either? (Customer: I'm sorry?) You do nothing for me either. (Customer: I just don't understand why it's so difficult to serve some people their food.) Are you that arrogant? You haven't got a clue what's going on behind me? (Customer: It seems like you have a lot of amateur.... sous chefs.) Right. Finally, your head's coming outside your arsehole. Now sit down, you fucking dick. What an arsehole."
  • (When Dewberry returned to his station after attempting to walk out earlier) "Thank you for coming back. You NEVER, hello, desert your station again! Do you understand? (Dewberry: Yes, chef.) You stand there like a man and you face it. (Dewberry: Yes, sir.) Because I'm standing here in front of customers taking shit, because of you!" (Dewberry: Yes, chef.)
  • (To Andrew) "You haven't got a clue, you know that, that's what I've just found out. I'm not impressed with you one little bit. You know all this big fucking fat mouth of yours, it's getting you nowhere. (Andrew: I'm just trying to do the job right, chef.) Yeah, are you? Fuck. You're trying to do nothing. My advice to you is to just shut your mouth!"
  • (When Jeff called 5 minutes on the lamb) "Oh no no no. Lamb bass, I want in fucking 4 minutes. I'm not doing as you please, Jeff. (Jeff: Yes, chef.) If I had to listen to you all night long, NO ONE would get served! I'LL do the lamb if you can't do it! Yeah, come here, you. Come here, come here. (Jeff: What?) Do you know why? Because you're just all over the shop. You just do it to suit you. (Jeff: It is cooked.) Look at them out there, look at those tickets. (Jeff: I understand, chef.) MOVE YOUR ARSE!"
  • (To Jeff) "You know you've cooked nothing exact yet. Nothing has come out of that kitchen right yet, you know that? And we struggled, and we struggled, and we struggled, and now I can't even get any lamb cooked. Well, your fucking timing, you jumped up fucker, has just stopped the dining room with 30 customers not eating. Now fuck off back to your section."
  • (To Wendy about heating the spaghetti sauce) "Everything I tell you, you come back with the most pathetic answers. (Wendy: Yes, chef.) You've always got something to say. Button it! You've now pushed me to the limit, I suggest you shut your mouth. Last chance!"
  • (To Jimmy when he says "I'm trying my best") "Hey, young man, well, that's not good enough for me, do you understand? Because that's shit. So don't come to me you wimp 'I'm TrYiNg My BeSt.' And it's CRAP. You send me one more cold garnish, you're washing pans for the rest of your life."
  • (To Jessica about the missing fillet mignons) "No, don't say that to me now. Surely. Jess, why do you want to give us big attitude? (Jessica: I'm not.) I've got to go back out there and fucking tell them. Unfold your fucking arms right now. And don't dare start getting fucking chippy, or lippy, or fucking pissy with me. We've got a massive problem now. And we've got no fucking filet steak."
    • (Later) "Can I just send this food here? Get back on your section and talk to me. (Jessica: Serve it. I'm trying to talk to you.) Hey! Hello, what's this (imitates her hands-up gesture)? GET BACK ON YOUR SECTION!!"
  • (To Jimmy) "Listen, listen, don't fucking start showing your fat mouth at me. Hey! Hey! Look at me. So I'm asking you, why you're putting fucking fish stock ON A FUCKING RISOTTO? GET IT OFF! BECAUSE I THINK IT'S A BIT BIZARRE THAT YOU FINISHED IT, AND YOU GET A LADLE OF FISH STOCK LIKE THAT, AND YOU PUT IT ON THE RISOTTO! SO I'M ASKING YOU AND YOU REFUSE TO TELL ME! THEN YOU WILL OPEN YOUR FAT FUCKING MOUTH!"
  • (To Jimmy) "Why is the fish in the pan? WHY isn't the fish- (Jimmy: I'M TRYING TO FUCKING DO BOTH AT THE SAME TIME! WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?) Come here, you. Come here, you. (Jimmy: No!) What do you mean 'no'? (Jimmy: I'm trying to do both at the same time.) Just calm down. Just calm fucking down. (Jimmy: I'm trying to do both at the same time.) Are you about to crack? Is that what it is? (Jimmy: No. No, I'm not going to-) No, OK? Don't fucking shout at me. (Jimmy: Yes, Chef.) What are you going to do? (Jimmy: No. I'm going to save and finish-) Calm down.

(Shoves the pan of old risotto at Vinny) AND even if it's NOT MY FAMILY, they deserve a FRESH risotto. Look at me. (Vinny: Yes, Chef.) You dirty little fucker.

I don't know what it is with you, but you got a big mouth for a small guy. Cause I'm, I'm fucking pissed. When I call out an order, everyone should be fucking listening and cooking. That's it. Then you move on. Why are you shouting over me? (Marc: Sorry Chef.) What's more important, than Jason's family? (Marc: A- Yes Chef.) NO WHAT'S MORE IMPORTANT?! (Marc: Jason's family chef, absolutely. I apologize.)

Season 20[]

  • (To Matthew about his signature dish) "Right so visually, looks classic. I'm a big lover of shrimp. (Matthew: Okay.) But I'm not very good at eating shrimp and shit-sack. Why didn't you clean the shrimp? (Matthew: Uh, I didn't notice it. I was-) You didn't notice that? Would you like a bite of the sack? (Matthew: I'll avoid it.) I know you're now legal to drink, but were you actually drunk when you put this dish together? (Matthew: No chef.) So I'm gonna give you a 2."
  • (To Matthew about his dish in the Alcohol Challenge) "Let's hope you have bounced back. So yesterday, you gave me the shrimp with the sack of crap inside. (Matthew: Yes chef.)

It's like you've all been knocked out by Iron Mike because your brains are scrambled."
  • (To Matthew at elimination) "Matthew. At Signature Dish, you delivered me a dish full of shit. Then in the Alcohol Challenge you serve me a raw chicken. And then tonight you serve me raw lamb. Worst of all, your attitude sucks. Therefore, I'm not listening to your bullshit. Give me your jacket."
  • (To Blue Team) "Where's the drive? (Antonio: Right here baby. Right here.) (Alex: We need to push.) Baby? What do you mean fucking baby? Yea, you're acting like babies.

(Blue Team: Yes, Chef.) Let's go. (Antonio: Let's go baby, come on.) And if I hear you call one more chef a baby, I'm gonna get you a fucking diaper. It's not baby, OK? (Antonio: Yes, Chef.)"
  • (To Blue Team during elimination) "How about this, Alex? Keeping fucking control of your chicken? (Alex: Yes, Chef) Unbelievable. So now we got to the bottom of chicken gate.

Antonio, fuck off back in line. Sam, don't commit to something you're not in control and you're not prepared to follow through with. (Sam: Yes, Chef.) Back in line!

Yea, read it out, No. (Trenton: It's not- it's not on there, chef.) No, come on. There MUST be a little mayonnaise sign somewhere. (Trenton: No, no, no, Chef.) Well, let me tell you, big boy. One day when you've got 14 Michelin Stars, 37 Restaurants, 2,742 Staff, then you can put fucking mayonnaise in your tartar sauce. Understood? (Trenton: Yes, Chef.) Thank you, it's there for a reason.
    • (To Trenton during Emoji Jacket Challenge) "Now, the batter. How did you make the batter. (Trenton: Flour, the baking soda, and just a little bit of cornstarch in there also.) Cornstarch? (Trenton: That's just what I'm used to doing chef.) Turn around, sorry. (Kiya turns around) (Trenton: It's not on there, it's not on there, Chef.) Oh dear oh dear. So we got mayonnaise and cornstarch, let's forget that."
  • (To the red team about raw lamb) "Red Team, come here. So let me just understand this. Who seared the lamb? (Sam: I did, Chef.) Who seasoned the lamb? (Payton: I seasoned it Chef.) You did what? (Keanu: I had it in the oven, Chef.) What did you do? You timed it? (Brynn: I timed it Chef.) What did you do? (Josie: I pulled it.) So one, two, three, four, FIVE of you cooking lamb, and look.

  • (To Sam during elimination) "Sam. (Sam: Yes, Chef.) Tough night. Are you the weakest cook in the red team? (Sam: No, Chef.) Who is? (Sam hesitates) Young man, you may sweat your nuts off asking one question. If that difficult, fucking god help you if you ever run a steak house with 52 chefs in the kitchen. God help you. In the red team, who is the weakest cook? (Sam: Chef I, it's hard to say between my-) No, I need one answer. One straight fucking answer is all required. That is it. Who is the weakest chef in the red team? (Sam: Chef tonight was, ah, the chicken tonight, tripped me up.) Oh my god. Fuck it, I'll move on."

  • (To Red Team) "What has happened to the fucking red team? You switched off, and I'm expecting you to step up, big boy. (Alejandro: Heard, Chef.) Vlad, you are just sitting there, silence. You're (Sommer) pathetic. And you're (Ileana) pathetic. Cause nobody's actually leading. If you got a risotto and you are 2 minutes away, what is the one thing you're screaming for? (Vlad: Lobster, Chef.) Have a fucking meeting, sort it out, or fuck off will you (Red Team: Yes, Chef.) Get out the fucking way."
  • (To Blue Team) "Halibut please, Vlad. Vlad? No answer, he just turns away. I find that the height of bad manners. That's fucking RUDE! Do you understand? When you fucking stand there and just blank me - what the fuck? It's strange, strange behavior."
  • (To Blue Team) "Are the lamb rested? (Brett: No, Chef.) Hey, come here. Come here. (Brett: Yes, Chef.) If I was running the meat, I'd tell you to shut the fuck up. (Brett: Yes, Chef.) Why are you telling me about his lamb? (Brett: I don't know, Chef.) So can I talk to the fucking chef that's in charge of the lamb? (Brett: I'll shut up chef.) How long for the lamb?

    • (When they left the kitchen) "HEY! Across my entire culinary career, I've never said that to Black Jackets! Come back to me with 2 nominees. (All: Yes Chef.) Hey! The good news is, YOU'RE SPOILED FOR CHOICE!"
