聞きくと見みるとは大おお違ちがい

expression

seeing is believing; don't believe everything you hear

Proverb meaning that what you hear about something is often very different from the reality you see with your own eyes.

• あのレストラン、評ひょう判ばんは良よかったけど、行いってみたら普ふ通つうだった。聞きくと見みるとは大おお違ちがいだね。

  That restaurant had a good reputation, but when I went there it was just average. Seeing is believing, I guess.
