Overview

• On July 8 the Facebook page Terror en los Restaurantes and X user Fernando Cuevas published leaked payroll data showing Deigo Ramen staff earn between MXN 8,000 and MXN 10,000 per month.
• The disclosed wages hover near Mexico City’s 2025 minimum wage and prompted social media users to question whether the influencer’s business success justifies higher pay.
• The breakdown lists gross monthly salaries of MXN 9,771.30 for sushi chefs and ramen cooks, MXN 8,000–8,364 for servers and MXN 8,364–10,000 for dishwashers despite an automated ordering system.
• Comunica has not publicly confirmed or denied the figures, leaving followers and labor advocates debating the fairness of compensation at his 24/7 ramen chain.
• The controversy follows a July 4 gentrification protest in Mexico City where the influencer was confronted over contributing to community displacement.
