What is Four-star?
1.
used to describe a situation which falls short of expectations.
the situation should evoke feelings similar to those felt from the service experience at poshly decorated but poorly staffed four-star hotels vs. their better-staffed five-star peers, i.e. not completely horrible, but missing that extra something that earns coveted star #5.
only 2 bartenders on a saturday night in a bar that packed? how four-star!
