Un dîner presque parfait
The show has been criticized for being too much like Channel 4's "Come Dine with Me", mainly in "Harry Hill's TV Burp". Sian Brewis on "Leicester Mercury" described "May The Best House Win" as a "Come Dine With Me", for houses. Lorraine Gibson of the "Bournemouth Echo" also noted the similarity predicting that the show would, like "Come Dine With Me", eventually be transferred to the evening schedules. UKGameshows.com said "It's not such a bad programme really, but the likeness to "Come Dine with Me" is hard to ignore, and makes the programme feel quite derivative".
