For those who wonder what Zagat *doesn't* publish, they put together a small webpage with some of the discarded one-liners. Enjoy.
Ouch!

UNFIT FOR PRINT
Fairness – and our lawyers – prohibits us from attributing some of the more colorful surveyor critiques we collect. We get such a kick out of them, though, that we wanted to share them with you. Here's the latest batch of comments on restaurants that our voters love to hate.
Duck must have had a long flight -- tired, tough and took 90 minutes to arrive.
Portions so small I started laughing -- prices so high I started crying.
Too snooty, but so am I.
Eat the crayons. They taste like the calamari.
The valet parking guys went home with our car still in the lot.
Have yet to learn that heat is an integral part of the cooking process.
Abandon tastebuds all ye who enter here.
For the price, the lobster should have come via overnight express, not pony express.
Someone please close this restaurant. The food is as old as the customers.
i've had much better Cajun, but I'm not going to tell you where.
Should shut down the restaurant and just serve the view.
Food [is] is served as cold as the faux-stone pillars, and as slowly as the Romans advancing over the Dolomites in a particularly harsh winter.
I think one of the ceramic pigs that adorn the walls could have given better service.
Noses are still up in the air. Should come back to earth.
The waiter flipped our pizza onto the floor, face down. He scooped it back up and told us it was okay.
Why does it always smell like mildew?
Wear black -- bring attitude -- get hicky.
