Hooters when I was 17.

>Wait 10 mins for someone to show up at the table
>give drink and food orders at the same time
>drinks come immediately
>30 mins later waitress comes back
>"Has ya'lls food not come yet? Let me check on that."
>25 mins later we just fucking leave

Haven't been to a hooters in 9 years and I don't miss a single thing

>>6079260
>Go to hooters
>Grills aren't even hot and look like meth addicts
>They probably are

>>6079277
I was like 16 when I first went to hooters many of the girls didn't have big hooters. I heard twin peaks is better in that aspect though

>>6079279
You damn right twin peaks is better. Honorable mention to The Tilted Kilt.

Giordanos in Chicago

>get some other recommendations but pick giordanos cause it's everywhere and people say it's pretty good
>get some cheesy garlic bread appetizer
>tastes like processed everything and offensive garlic
>pizza comes
>again, taste like pre-made processed everything
>the crust even tastes like someone opened a tube of Pillsbury crescent dough and shaped it into the shape of pizza

Was not impressed and not happy considering how expensive it was.

Haven't had any really awful experiences

>Be at birthday dinner in nice restaurant
>Order jambalaya

>Family's nanny comes running over and immediately gives me the heimlich maneuver
>I spit out the food and catch my breath

>>6079598
W-
why would you order something you are almost surely going to be allergic to and then ask them to remove any allergic elements?

>Be in NYC during a week-long school trip
>Buy pizza from a 24-hour place right next door to my hotel, around 1am
>I give him $10 for a $4.87 bill, gives me my change in quarters, dimes and pennies.
>The next morning, at 9, I go get the same pizza place again, use the same amount of money, given to the same guy
>Sorry, we don't take pennies.
>What.jpg
>Explain that I literally was here a couple hours ago, and you gave me this amount of money
>No, that must be someone else we don't take pennies
>fine.jpg, save my change for the subway, give him a $5 bill
>Gives me 13 cents back

>>6079645
they never said they don't give pennies

asshole

>>6079647
time's awful isn't it

>>6079260
I had a similar experience.
>Go to bar
>Wait 15 minutes to even be acknowledge
>Order Sam Adams and Food
>Don't get Sam Adams for at least 10 minutes
>20 minutes go by still no food
>Girl comes with food finally
>its lukewarm
>Complain
>never get the food back
>Don't even get a refill for my lager
>Straight up leave with paying

Seriously if I wanted to play the waiting game. I would have gone to the airport and do it that. There is no excuse for service to take an 1 hour and a half to be completed especially since the restaurant wasn't even busy. My favorite part about the entire experience was there was three of us at the bar and we all received that exact same service. All because the bartender was too busy flirting with the Store Manager.

Since then I have vowed never to go to Hooters ever again.

> At Carls Jr next to Marine World
> No real other food options in the immediate area
> Only one other guy there

> Cashier is new and doesn't know how to take a credit card
> Guy doesn't have cash
> Calls manager over
> Manager tries to void the entire purchase, for some reason
> Says the fix for the employee is to put it in as a drive-thru order
> That doesn't change anything
> They then realize they didn't actually cancel the original order
> Confused chaos ensues
> Entire system is reset
> Guy now worried he has been charged twice
> They tell him to make sure to check his credit card bill
> Try to swipe his card again
> System puts it in, behind two other orders of the exact same thing
> Employees flailing around in tight circles now, running into each other
> Guy just standing there
> We've now been waiting behind him for twenty minutes
> Again, no other food option in the immediate area, and we didn't really expect this to take so much time
> After twenty minutes, the lady tells the guy she'll just switch to one of the other cash registers
> Moves over and completes his purchase within 30 seconds
> You had a cash register you could use the entire time
> We waited 20 minutes for you to troubleshoot your register while there was a working one right next to it
> That moment when the equipment took priority over the customer
> Still enjoyed my double bacon western

>Place me & my buddies used to go to regularly
>Nothing fancy, but it was convenient and the food was adequate
>Easily spend £100 a week between the three of us
>New manager
>Sacks almost all the wait staff
>Sacks almost all the kitchen
>Order starters & entree
>Half hour later, 2 of the 3 starters arrive.
>10 minutes later the other starter, a bowl of fucking olives, arrives.
>Okay, fine, they're busy
>1.5 hours later, no entree
>We get up and leave
>Staff are so embarrassed they comp us the starters & all our drinks
>Never set foot in the place since

...and that's how you instantly lose £500 a month in takings.

Some shit french restraurant in lower manhattan, my gf at the time and I were looking around, neither of us lived there, it's a real shit area.

The bitch waitress insulted my gf so I left her a penny as a tip, that's a message, not nothing, but a penny for that cunt.

A penny get's the message across, we lived more uptown and around the downtown cunts. There are very different areas even in manhattan.

The downtown manhattan area is where you get the annoying skullcap wearing homosexuals that have an axe to grind.

>>6080248
I went to some local bar/pub type place and the waitress was a huge cunt, even rolled her eyes, I did the same left a penny

>>6079260
>Wait 10 mins for someone to show up at the table
ugly feels

>Little Caesar's that just opened
>Decide to try it, first one in my area
>Get closer, realize it's in the middle of the hood
>Fuck it, I'm hungry
>Literally two people working, both at the grills, neither at the register
>Both sheboons, talking loudly to each other
>Wait a bit for one to notice they have a customer
>Wait five minutes, ask if anyone is working the register
>Sheboon #1 says "Hol' up, I'm talkin' to someone"
>About to walk out when a third employee, this time a Hispanic guy, comes out of the back room
>Thick PR accent, says "I am sorry about this, what you want to order"
>Probably the manager, feel sorry that he has to work with the sheboons
>Sheboon #2 interjects "Nah, nah, don't you take him yet, he a rude white boy"
>Tell her that I was born in Arecibo and that I'm Puerto Rican
>Turns out Hispanic is from Vega Alta, goes off on the sheboons
>After ten minutes, I get my order, pepperoni pizza
>Get home, only one slice has pepperoni
>The rest of the pizza is cheese with little circles of sauce
>The sheboons literally picked the pepperoni off the pizza
>Fucking niggers

>>6080259
That doesn't exist in manhattan.

It's just bars m8, pubs and taverns no.

That doesn't exist anywhere in NYC.
People will tell you this and that, but it's not like pubs in the UK, we have a different culture. Only weirdos and drunks hang out in bars here in NYC or in NY in general.

>>6079240
>go to this mexican bar/restaurant with gf and a bro
>waiter is some Indian fuck, barely speaks English and glowers at us like we're his worst enemy
>order nachos and cocktails
>nachos have barely any meat/cheese/sauce on them, just layer upon layer of dry chips
>still it's ok, not the worst I suppose
>call Indian waiter to bring the bill
>waiter shoves a dirty napkin into my gf's half-finished cocktail which she'd just drank from
>when she tells him not to take it, he just walks away without bothering to remove napkin
>retard manages to knock over a glass of water when he comes back with the bill
>again he just walks away
>after about 5 minutes of me sitting with my lap soaked in water, a different waitress comes to clean up
>cheeky Indian fuck comes back for his tip though
>not a fuck, nigga
>he overcharged us too, putting items we never ordered on the bill
>leave
>gf and I spend the rest of the day taking turns shitting and puking our guts out
>file a complaint the next day

The worst is, we'd eaten there before and it had been one of our favorite restaurants before that Indian cunt showed up.

>>6080262
go back in there with a slingshot and a pizza ball and bean it right the fuck at them. they deserve it.

>and they continued to recieve welfare, working 4 hours a day to pay for their crack and nail jobs

>>6080278
I would have looked at my GF and we'd both know what each other were thinkinig and walked out. I wont deal with some stank ass indian.

They need to remember who's paying.

>>6080262

>>6080280
No, that's the way you get arrested.
You're putting yourself down to their level by doing that.
Just don't patronize the place, simple.

>>6080287
I don't care about niggers, take that back to /pol.

>haven't eaten all day
>driving around looking for something different
>find a bar/restaurant
>should have kept driving but was starving
>go in pretty normal crowd for a bar
>order a Philly cheese steak sandwich
>30 minutes later they were not busy btw
>sandwich is burnt super salty and really fuckin greasy the nastiest thing iv ever eaten

i will never trust bar "food" ever again

>>6080280
expecting niggers to work 4 hours a day will start riots m8, what's next, burning detroit? oh wait that's already happened.

>>6080314
if youre ever in richmond virginia, i recommend a bar called "the camel"

its a hippy bar/venue, but it redefined bar food for me.so good

>basic fresh fries with seasalt and ground peper
>rosted red pepper ketchup
mmmmm

>>6080271
im in NJ

>>6080366
I worked there for a year or so, that place sucked dick. It snowed once and a 1/4 inch shut the whole city and everything around it down. I couldn't wait to get out of that place and back to New York.

>>6080262
>Little Caesar's
>Known for Hot n Ready
>Claiming to wait 10 minutes after ordering

Somebody's full of bullshit here

>>6080387
Yer mum's hot pocket was hot n ready!

>>6080387
>implying Hot n Ready is always hot and/or ready
>especially when dealing with the culturally enriched
Someone's never been to Little Caesar's.

I didn't experience this first hand, but my whole family went to breakfast at Cracker Barrel and told me about it:

>Family arrives
>Orders are taken by two servers because large group
>Orders are divided by which side of the table they're on
>Everything seems fine so far
>They bring out the drinks, fuck up like four of them
>Food is taking a while, but not ridiculous so far.
>Food starts to come out.
>Only one half of the table gets their food, some of the orders are wrong
>That side waits for the other food to arrive before eating
>10-15 min later, still missing half the food
>Fuck it, the people with food begin eating
>Everyone finishes, other half of the table still has no food
>Complain to manager.
>Food finally comes out. Half the orders are wrong/ missing shit
>It's all cold

I'm glad I had other shit to do that day

>>6079645
If you had your food already, you should have left the fucking pennies on the counter and walked out and told him he can call the cops if he'd like

>>6080448
That's wrong, if dining in the place you have to pay your bill. What's right is right. That way it's not an issue for the police.

That said, leaving a penny on the table for the cunt waitress or waiter is quite OK.

That gets the message across without involving the police.

Also said, if they're being stupid and taking 40 minutes and expecting me and my guest to sit there waiting for their special snowflake bullshit, I will walk out of the place and leave nothing at all.

At that level it's just stupid and I wont deal with them... if they expect me to wait for 40+ minutes for something that should come out in 10 when I can see that nobody is there in the restaurant, then they can fuck off.

>>6080491
He means paying his bill, but with the Change from the first day, including pennies, which they wouldn't take

>Go to Tumbleweed for my friend's birthday dinner
>Only three other occupied tables in the whole restaurant
>Only six of us. Orders are simple
>Wait 45 minutes for food
>Waiter comes out and apologizes
>Get our food 1 hour and 30 minutes later
>It's cold
>Get free $1.00 sundaes to make up for shitty service

T-thanks...

>order medium rare hamburger with no mayo
>arrives put together messily
>think "whatever they're real busy and I'm hungry"
>take a bite
>it tastes like salty and sour in a really bad way
>open the top and see yellowish-milky stripes on the crown
>leave without paying and vomit

>>6080691
Understood, sometimes I'm a moron.

Not often but it happens from time to time.

>>6080734
Guess you found out why only three tables were occupied.

>>6080262
>my area
>realize its in the hood

did you just fucking realize the area that you lived in? or even the neighboring areas? how do you not have a skeletal understanding of the socio-economic statuses of people living around you?

spooky

>> Employees flailing around in tight circles now, running into each other
That actually made me laugh.

>apologizes for shit service

I was sitting there for the first half hour just thinking jesus christ, I tip well, these people are literally fucking retarded. I had gotten a check in for a few hundred and was going to leave a 20$ tip on a shitty order to brighten someone's day but good god.

You retards do realize that you can have food of similar or better quality in strip clubs, right?

Go to PFChangs to check it out as a possible date spot.
Just one? Seated at the bar... in blinding sunlight from the window. He'll "be back in a few minutes for my order".
15 minutes pass, I'd started reading my book. I ask for a water, and a mango chicken thing. Place is quiet, not many customers.
Another twenty minutes, "Have you been served?"
Check my watch, "Yes. I've ordered and been waiting 20 or so."
"I'll send somebody to take your order" WTF?!
another 15-20 minutes, "Would you like to order now?"
"Ordered already, most of an hour ago. It's not here yet."
Few minutes, "Sorry some one forgot it, it got cold, they're making it again." WTF???!!!!
Next event is over twenty minutes later, my book keeping me company.
"Would you like to order?"
I sputter a moment, "I already..." Guy comes around him with my lunch. Finally.
The "dish" was terrible. Flavorless boiled chicken, the mango wasn't ripe or of good quality, all aspects of it was below acceptable quality. Got enough pepper on it to make it vaguely interesting.
My glass was never refilled.
Paying went about as well with having to knock on the counter after a few minutes for attention and "you ordered what? I can't find it" and "I'll get the cashier".
Amazing that shitty place is still there and open. How does this franchise survive?

>>6081161
Top of the bun retard
Top= Crown
Middle (if applicable) = Club

it was like i was on some kind of prank tv show...
i thought it was all a joke, but when i left i realized i'd had a once in a lifetime experience

>riding with my grandma and aunt for 2 hours in the car to syracuse
>we all get kinda hungry, grandma decides to pull up to some middle of nowhere restaurant
>the sign looks like it was previously a doctor's office and the restaurant name is something long and weird that i can't remember
>go inside

we should've just turned around and walked out right here, but i think we all thought we were crazy and no one said a word

>it smelled like old building
>the entire place was open, like a studio apartment
>i can see the small kitchen where they're cooking, everything looks dirty
>decor is generic Adirondack bears and deer and tables made of tree slices, only in a bad knicknacky way

the waitress who came to greet us sat us down and she seemed alright
>she gives us the menus, we ask some questions
>"honestly i just started work here yesterday, sorry"
>order some patty melts even though my gut is telling me not to eat anything from this place

then shit took a nose dive
>food took forever, since the kitchen is open we can see the fry cook and hear him bitching as loud as he can about how he hates his job
>we get the plates
>i stare at mine and wait for my grandma and aunt to eat their food first because fuck that
>grandma starts chewing her first bite
>"THERE'S A FLY"

we all stopped and looked at my aunt and she's like
>there's a fly grilled into the bread

she shows us the bread and sure enough there's a crispy fly seared right into the bread
i actually felt relieved when she told me because i didn't want to piss my grandma off by not eating this shit
she spit out her food and told the waitress and kind of ran to the car
i hope that place is gone now

>>6081251

>shitheel

What the fuck does that even mean? Are you saying I'm shit stuck to a women's shoe? Wouldn't that be "heelshit"? Are you trying to use the previously mentioned amerifat burger language where heel=bottom? If so, doesn't that just prove my point?

>>6081255
>Be in Memphis

This was your first mistake.

>go into [a] restaurant

Here was your second.

>>6081263
It's from Taxi Driver.

LOL giordano's is not the place to go if you have one day in chitown, it's a chain. Go to Gino's next time.

>>6081099
"My area" is essentially "anything within ten or so miles". I don't go to the area that the place was in very often, so I'm unfamiliar with the street names. I just looked up the address of the place and put it into my GPS because I'm a lazy fuck.

>>6081436
That's really no excuse

Kek holy shit

>>6081781
if you have bread and something between two slices of it you have a sandwich, no?

Theres a german restraunt by me with amazing schnitzel and amazing breakfast but i swear to god they dont know what medium rare is, i have to order steak rare for it to be even slightly pink.

>Had a reservation, but still took >10 min. to be seated.

>tfw wife told me after the show that she'd been looking forward to that meal all week, and never wants to eat at legal again

>>6081895

While that is not excusable, an hour and a half is a little risky unless you're eating fast food

inb4 chain restaurants are basically fast food

>>6081906
Not true. Hour and a half for dinner is about average.

>>6081212
>how do I green text

>>6081938
I don't believe he was quoting anything

>>6081212
I have a rule.

If I have to ask for the check 3 times, and it still doesn't come within 10 minutes of the 3rd ask, I just leave.

Only ever had to use that rule once. If a place has service so bad they can't even bring me my check, I'm not going back there anyway, so idgaf.

>>6081906
I knew it was cutting it a little close, but thought it would be more of a "can't order dessert" and less of a "your food is burnt but still not ready"

>>6080236
"Easily spend £100 "

"
...and that's how you instantly lose £500 a month in takings."

What?

>>6081212
Who goes to PF Changs to "check it out"?

It's the Cheesecake Factory of Asian food. Everyone of them is the same, you know what you are getting before you set foot in the place. Generic, overpriced, disgustingly rich food in a tacky dining environment.

lol sounds like u just got the classic "cum bun" used to play that prank all the times when I was working as a teen at mcdonalds. Don't see why it's gross to you though, just proteins.

or no one shows up because they don't tip

>>6079313
Twin Peaks actually makes good food, and the girls are hotter and the environment is much better than Hooters. The venison chili bowl is so damn good. Theres another similar chain called Ojos Locos, think Hooters but with tacos and hot Mexican bitches.

>>6082369
If you can't understand why someone would have a problem with someone else's bodily fluids, regardless of whether or not semen is "just proteins" or spit is 99.5% water, then you should probably fucking kill yourself.

I never understood why some places get assblasted oversomething like that. You're not going to magically awaken someone's culinary tastes, all your doing is getting pissed off while pissing off someone else possibly ruining their night. If home wants ketchup, give him ketchup (troll the fuck out of him with non tomato ketchup if you will, but give him hours ketchup).

I mean, I know there is such thing as bad customers, but come on.

>>6085318
While you do have incredibly shitty taste, I honestly don't understand why a restaurant would with hold you ketchup.

The servers never want to do the job if they don't really have a vocation for it. They really don't give a fuck. If you feel that your server is being a lazy cunt, tell the manager.

Sounds like a friend of mine. Every so often I'll go meet him for lunch and he does nothing but act like a little bitch the whole time, orders really specific things and then claims "I didn't order that!" when they bring him exactly what he asked for. He always finds the most asinine shit to complain about. Last time we went to lunch, he said that the waitress smelled funny and told me he wasn't leaving a good tip because she should have better hygiene when serving food. He always finds some bullshit reason to stiff the server on the tip. So he got his bill for around $15 and just left a tip to bring it up to $16. I ended up leaving her an $8 tip to make up for his bullshit. I end up doing that pretty much every time we go to lunch.

The sad part is, he's a decent enough guy when we're not going to eat somewhere, for whatever reason he just turns into some kind of whacked out jew-beast at restaurants.

Sometimes people make stuff up on the internet. I think this is probably one of those stories that is more true than not.

I miss my hole in the wall Chinese place. Guy was always friendly, fair and honest. My dad also a regular costumer would eat there too and the owner would always ask about him or tell me to say "hello." On top of understanding his role and clientele, the food was always consistently decent - never anything too fancy but it was a hole in the wall after all. Top top it all off, the guy would know what my usual dish was.

Now it's been 4 years since I moved away and the place by me they are always rude/gruff, kinda pricey, the food is sub mediocre, and worst of all it, ALL of it fucking taste the same.

I'm gonna sound like an old man racist prick to some of you kids but I swear Koreans can not make "Chinese" food. While they make great bulgogi even the mexicans and zit faced kids at Panda Express do a better job.

Anyway this is not my worst experience but that will come shortly.

>she actually runs out of the restaraunt up to our car as we're leaving and starts freaking the fuck out about the tip
>mom tells her off and we leave
>grandparents drive back after we drop them off and give her more money

Place was eventually shut down. If your service is shit, don't expect a good tip. It wasn't the fact that the check took so long, it was the the waitress was being a disrespectful cunt to her customers, and running out complaining about your tip is just unprofessional and fucking childish.

What idiot gives pennies but doesn't accept them? That means the only way they can get pennies is by going to the bank and getting more, always. And trust me, places that use pennies are always in a losing battle with pennies given vs. pennies received, so wtf?

I don't know about worst experience, but it sure was aggravating.

A friend of mine and his girlfriend came to visit one weekend. I was broke as hell and wanted to eat something cheap. They expressed no interest in anything about the restaurant or what kind of food they wanted and so I suggested Captain D's.

The friend's girlfriend was pissed off the rest of the weekend. It turned out that it was her birthday and she wanted to go to something nice, but she just sulked until after we ate.

If she had said something, I would have suggested a nice little family run Italian restaurant nearby that wasn't too much more expensive and was quite good.

It's important to remember that women are hard wired to achieve their goals through emotional manipulation due to their weaker bodies and their ancestral role in raising young and looking after the settlement while the men were out hunting and gathering.

It's natural for women to memorize shit that they can use later as ammunition. For instance birth dates, anniversary dates, etc. Hence the stereotype of the man "forgetting" a date and the woman reacting angrily and the man purchasing baubles to bribe his way back into her good graces.

Then where did he get the pennies?

I went to some bullshit world class restaurant with my gf's loaded mother when I was in pensacola. The waiter was the happiest man I have ever seen. It was terrifying.

Anyway, there wasn't anything on the menu that was vegan, but gf's mom had called in advance to make sure there would be something.

What I ended up with was about 350 calories worth of flavorless corn, greasy rapini, and rice with some red bell pepper flakes in it, each in their own tiny dish. I can understand if it's just some grumpy chef working a shit job that didn't want to go out of his way to feed the vegan. But the meal probably cost about $40-50, and the chef was paid in the 6-digits. I've had better free side plates at cheap Korean restaurants.

>>6091307
What do you eat for a regular lunch at home as a vegan? I would find the simple meals the most difficult

>>6091308
A loaf of fresh bread and a few carrots.
Two cups of rice with vegetables and spices.
A head of kale and roasted potatoes.
Soup.
A watermelon.
Honestly, though, I don't really eat meals. I just consume whole/low-fat food for the entire day.

I have some basmati rice, was thinking of cooking a batch of that up for dinner. I guess I could cook some carrots and whatever else I can find and throw that on top, maybe with some turmeric or something.

>>6091361
This *was* the special item prepared by the chef. The reservation with the special considerations was made over a week in advance. The waiter told me that they had prepared something specifically for our arrival. I would have got the beet salad if they didn't push this shit on me.

I've ate at many restaurants and one very fine cocktail bar. Let me tell you the worst service I've ever received was at Renee Erickson's The Whale Wins. The hostess was awful. We stood about five minutes waiting for anyone to come by, then this other group walks in and are whisked away by the hostess who doesn't acknowledge we're even there or why these new comers are being seated. Obviously they had placed a reservation with her earlier and were returning to her text if their table availability. That's fine but obviously this woman is not performing her job quite well. Okay so we wait another few minutes in which one of the waitresses says hi to us and let's us know the hostess will be with us soon. Another couple shows up and the hostess returns finally creating us and welcoming us to Renee Erickson's The Whale Wins. Shortly after we are seated at a nice table and our waitress is very kind and we empty sardines in toast and a bottle of Chianti. Lovely food and a fair atmosphere, but a terrible hostess.

>>6079240

No, it is not.

It is, for example, perfectly legal to have a restaurant that accepts credit cards or checks only.

You are, however, required to accept "legal tender" to satisfy a debt. The keyword is "debt". I don't think that a transaction at a restaurant would be classified as a debt and thus not subject to "legal tender" rules. The question would be at what time the transaction becomes a debt.

>>6091446
>I don't think that a transaction at a restaurant would be classified as a debt

And you would be mistaken. Legally speaking, a price on an item being sold is a "debt".

I'm grateful it wasn't really that bad. There's a half-wit waitress at Milwaukee's Lake Park Bistro - which offers passable French cuisine at barely acceptable prices - who treats all of her guests like they've never eaten anywhere apart from Olde Country Buffet. She's just trying to be helpful but it's absolutely humiliating. She's all fucking loud, "corrects" your French by mispronouncing what you've just said correctly, and gives you a ten-minute lecture with every dish, like you've never eaten a piece of cheese before. I actually sent the manager an email after the fifth time that happened to me personally. He sent me a $50 voucher but I won't go back.

It was a stupid idea for her to take you there.

not the worst but I was at some texmex joint earlier today and had a good waitress. She was pretty attentive until I was ready for the bill, then she just disapeared. For like 30 minutes. I got sick of waiting so long and left the approximate total of our lunch in cash on the table and left, no tips. I left it close to the end in plain open sight, hoping somebody more.....driven....might end up with it by slight of hand.

>>6092454
where are you located? not newcastle by any chance?

There was a restaurant called Gullifty's in Pittsburgh, PA which was a bit of a regional tradition for its insane desserts. Apparently it is now closed or closing.

Despite the fact that I only once received adequate or even passable service there, my friends/family and I tried repeatedly to go there. Retardation, maybe.

First time, 10 years old, guest of a birthday party. Everything normal.

Second time 12-13 years old, went with mom. We're fairly bland, middle-class-looking white people. We were seated by the bathroom despite the empty dining room. During our order, my mom hesitated over something and the server drifted off to another table to chat with a friend who was eating there. She didn't come back. We eventually left.

Third time, 16, with my father. Server showed up wearing a Steelers t-shirt and filthy jeans. When we asked for a recommendation he said 'I don't eat here, I'd be a lardass if I did that.' Normal otherwise.

Years later I came home from college with my girlfriend. This is where the retardation kicked in. There are plenty of good places to eat, and I should have gone to any of them. Instead...

Empty dining room, seated directly next to the bathroom. The bathroom smelled of the same 'sweet' cleaning fluid used to clean portajohns. We could smell it the entire meal. Another couple came in and was seated in the main dining room. I asked if we could be moved-- I have never done this before-- and was refused without explanation. I know restaurants have their own way of doing things, but the entire place was empty. The server came over and took our order and fed us (just dessert, it was honestly amazing), but for some reason she left a bible on the table.

Fourth time-- yes, I'm stupid-- my mom and I decided to stop in on a whim and received no service for thirty minutes. This time when we left, the male host actually followed us down the street for two blocks. Thinking we'd done a dine-and-dash?

No idea why I kept going back.

Sorry, it was the fifth. I hit the character limit and was editing the shit out of the post to try to get it to fit, just fucked it up.

It was surreal. Later it became funny, but at the time we had no idea what to make of it.

The only thing I can think of is that we weren't wearing wedding rings. Keep in mind this was 2011, though.

The dessert was seriously awesome, though. It was some kind of brownie thing made with Chambord, cherries, and cherry ice cream. The thing I got when I went there with my dad was a peanut butter chocolate trifle of some kind. I actually remember the dessert from the birthday party, too. It was the biggest goddamn apple pie I've ever seen in my life.

I was just fucking determined to have a good experience there, I guess.

Are you sure this restaurant was a real place and not a facet of the twilight zone or something? When the waitress left the bible on the table, were her eyes barren and devoid of human feeling? Did the waiter become intangible and fade into the ether after the second block? I need to know.

>>6092541
google the place, they got some funny reviews

It's not only real, but most people who grew up in Pittsburgh during its thirty-year tenor love it. It was very much part of the old-school, close-knit Italian American part of Pittsburgh. I've had conversations with other people who could not believe I'd ever had bad service there. And I saw good service happen there myself, goddamn it, just not to us.

In all honesty, I think the fact that I went there with my single parents who were divorced and didn't wear wedding rings, or with my girlfriend before we were engaged or married is why we received bad service. But this is hard for me to grapple with because we are talking about events that mostly took place after the year 2000.

Oh, and the guy who followed us was a tall, built guy. It would have been intimidating if it weren't ridiculous. He stopped following us when we went into one of the pizzerias there. We didn't pick up pizza but we picked up a refrigerated burnt almond torte and a six pack, so fuck that noise.

Been to that restaurant, pretty good except there are no reservations so there's a line around the block

They closed down years ago.

I decided to try out a pizza restaurant that I knew nothing about. I ordered an "all you can eat pizza, salad & soda" but what I got was a single cracker crust personal pizza of the Mama Celeste variety, one trip to the salad bar, and a soda (no refills). It was, literally, all I could eat.

The key to restauranting is if you send it back don't accept whatever they send to replace it. Just leave. Food service people are scum of the Earth and they have done something to your food even if it looks prepared correctly.

>>6091467
I mean, you're wrong, but ok.

This is what the US Treasury says:
"There is, however, no Federal statute mandating that a private business, a person or an organization must accept currency or coins as for payment for goods and/or services. Private businesses are free to develop their own policies on whether or not to accept cash unless there is a State law which says otherwise. For example, a bus line may prohibit payment of fares in pennies or dollar bills. In addition, movie theaters, convenience stores and gas stations may refuse to accept large denomination currency (usually notes above $20) as a matter of policy."

Your turn.

In a normal transaction, no debt is incurred. Rather, you are exchanging money in some form for a product.

A debt necessarily involves a promise to pay later. In other words, you get the product now and then pay them at some point in the future. If it isn't a debt, then laws regarding legal tender do not apply at all.

In your quote from the US Treasury, debts are not involved. Rather, that is a simple transaction -- an exchange of money in some form for goods. You must give them the money in order to purchase the goods and services. No debts are involved.

I have two bad experiences.

I have never been to a restaurant, outside of fast food, where you pay BEFORE you get the food.
You eat first and then get the bill at the end of the meal.
Sounds like a debt to me.

That's why I said that I wasn't sure about this particular case.

On the one hand, it does sound like a debt.

On the other hand, it is a meal served with the understanding that payment in full will be made before leaving. That doesn't really sound like a debt.

That said, I know a lawyer who, when he was younger in the 1960's, he would go into a restaurant and eat and then offer a $100 bill in payment. Back then, a restaurant probably wouldn't keep that much in the cash register to make change. He would tell them that he offered legal tender to pay for the meal and if they refused to accept it, then the debt was cancelled.

I don't think it mattered whether or not he was right. My impression of lawyers is that for many of those lawyers who are essentially bullies, it's not what is legal but what they can convince others is legal. It's no wonder so many people hate lawyers.

Also, I have been to some non-fast food restaurants where you pay at the time you get the food. The most common of these were old-time barbecue places where you would order at the counter in a way similar to a fast food restaurant. I've also seen cafeterias where you pay before you eat.
