Ramsay said CCTV showed the dog in the viral Street Pizza incident did not urinate or defecate, calling the online uproar “overexaggerated.”
He added that dogs are allowed only on the restaurant’s outdoor terrace, responding to criticism that the video showed an unsanitary indoor dining scene.
The TikTok, posted after a customer filmed a dog standing on a pee pad near diners, drew complaints about hygiene and whether the episode breached restaurant norms or health rules.
That clip had already reached 20 million views and widened into a broader argument over pet etiquette in restaurants, with some commenters blaming the owner rather than Ramsay or the venue.
