1/5 Mac P. 2 years ago on Google
Wow.
I
just
returned
from
taking
my
young
daughters
to
dinner
here.
My
family
and
I
have
been
coming
to
this
restaurant
regularly
for
over
ten
years,
and
we
have
always
enjoyed
eating
here.
However,
I’m
afraid
to
say
that
those
days
may
have
come
to
an
end.
Their
posted
hours
indicate
that
they
are
open
until
10:30PM
on
Fridays.
I
called
them
just
after
8:00PM
to
confirm
this,
and
was
told
that
they
are
closing
at
9
instead.
I
then
asked
if
we
could
come
right
over
(we
live
just
a
few
minutes
away),
and
I
was
begrudgingly
told
that
we
could,
but
we
MUST
leave
by
9:10.
I
said
we
would
order
ahead
to
save
time.
As
soon
as
we
arrived,
we
were
immediately
and
angrily
warned
again
that
we
MUST
leave
by
9:10.
I
said
we
would
do
our
best,
which
was
met
with
an
angered
response
reminding
me
that
NO,
WE
MUST
BE
OUT
OF
THE
RESTAURANT
BY
9:10!!!!!!!
Moments
later,
she
complained
to
my
youngest
daughter
(who
had
lingered
around
near
the
entrance)
that
they
have
been
closing
at
9PM
throughout
the
pandemic
and
everyone
should
know
this
–
a
real
classy
and
welcoming
touch
to
vent
frustration
at
a
child.
(not
to
mention
that
Google
indicates
that
their
information
was
edited
by
the
business
less
than
a
month
ago,
but
I
digress).
Our
food
came
promptly
and
we
ate
promptly,
wanting
to
be
respectful
of
their
wishes
for
our
promptness…but
the
bitter
behaviour
did
not
stop.
I
asked
for
some
extra
tzatziki
and
was
told
it
would
be
75
cents
for
a
small
container
(approximately
a
teaspoon).
In
over
ten
years
of
coming
here,
I
have
NEVER
been
charged
for
extra,
and
I
always
ask
for
more
because
I
love
it!
I
didn’t
care,
I
wanted
to
have
it,
so
I
agreed.
While
we
ate,
the
waitress
hovered
over
us
constantly,
and
not
in
a
doting
way,
but
sulking
and
annoyed.
Meanwhile,
the
kitchen
staff
were
openly
and
loudly
complaining
about
us.
Both
of
my
daughters
independently
told
me
on
the
way
home
about
how
they
felt
uncomfortable
because
the
staff
were
saying
things
about
us.
Staff
were
arguing
about
other
things
as
well
(quite
an
atmosphere
eh?),
but
we
were
definitely
a
target
of
enormous
frustration.
The
bill
came
and
I
paid
it
as
quickly
as
possible,
including
$5
worth
of
Tzatziki.
I
checked
the
time
on
my
phone
as
we
walked
out,
and
we
managed
to
leave
by
9:11.
My
daughters
thanked
the
waitress
for
dinner
and
she
ignored
them.
I
honestly
don’t
understand
why
they
said
we
should
come.
I
would
have
stayed
home
if
they
had!
Obviously,
they
were
absolutely
furious
that
we
were
eating
there,
and
they
made
us
feel
their
anger
every
second
that
we
were
there.
I
feel
sick
now
because
I
ate
so
fast
(I’m
not
suggesting
the
food
was
bad,
just
that
I
shoveled
it
down
my
throat
due
to
the
palpable
belligerence
towards
my
daughters
and
I).
I
also
don’t
understand
why
they
are
so
unhappy
to
be
there
that
staying
11
minutes
past
closing
brings
about
such
furious
hostility.
As
I
said,
I
have
been
coming
here
for
over
ten
years.
I
bring
family
from
out
of
town
here
regularly.
I
have
many
memories
here.
I
am
very
sad
to
report
on
my
experience
tonight...and
frankly,
I
find
the
whole
episode
to
be
incredibly
strange
and
confusing.
However,
I
feel
that
others
would
want
to
know
about
this
experience.
We
weren’t
rude
or
obnoxious
–
I’ve
always
felt
it
is
important
to
be
polite
to
people
who
are
providing
food.
We
were
ultimately
able
to
leave
when
they
wanted
us,
and
hadn’t
done
anything
to
indicate
that
we
wouldn’t.
We
sat
promptly,
ate
food
as
quickly
as
they
could
bring
it,
and
got
out
as
soon
as
we
were
done.
To
me,
it
seems
indicative
of
a
dysfunctional
work
environment,
and
it
is
hard
for
me
to
imagine
wanting
to
be
fed
by
this
group
of
people
again.
Our
last
visit
was
not
so
great,
but
we
didn’t
think
much
of
it
at
the
time.
Looking
back,
it
seems
like
a
pattern
of
a
place
that
was
once
terrific,
but
is
now
headed
downhill
in
a
hurry.
I
wish
it
weren’t
so,
as
I’ve
always
loved
coming
here,
but
this
experience
tonight
was
just
so
aggressively
dreadful
that
it
no
longer
seems
like
a
welcoming
environment
any
more.
