Dayum all thats petty. Good luck.

Keep in mind this is the same guy that made a waitress at the Chime's cry because he was such a rude prick.

Damn. You shouldn't have paid.

That would have been stealing in my book.

We did partners one at my old job and if the machine was down beyond anyone's control, we would just give a complimentary meal

That's how it should have been handled or they could have run my payment later. What happened is that they had been put on hold status. They should have told me at the onset of service this fact, but they didn't.

What really pissed me off is the manager accosting me in the parking lot like I had skip checked. That was a dick move in my book and showed a total lack of any managing skills. He should have approached me at the table and we could have discussed our options in a more civilized environment.

Yeah Puccinos is another that I doubt I return. They have way overpriced coffee as it is and they pull the $5 minimum to use a credit card bullshite.
Screw that.
Their service sucks as well.

Pinettas. Which is really sad because I love some of their food. However, the general suck fest of service and air conditioning just killed the experience last time I was there.

I would like to add Manning's in NOLA to the list. The food is just too pricey for what you get. Another Broken Egg is the same concept in breakfast form, except I love breakfast food to much too completely stop going there altogether.

Another Broken Egg - nothing I couldn't make at home and their prices are just insanely high.

I guess I just like eggs bennedict style dishes too much to totally stop going to these places. They have 8 or so choices of these kind of dishes and I sure as hell don't thing I could make them as good at home and def. don't feel like dealing with the mess.

The Broken Egg in old mandeville in the old cottage is really a neat place to eat. And there really aren't very many good breakfast places around.

While I stil order to-go from Bay Leaf and Curry & Kabob, I refuse to eat in the restaurants due to their "broken" AC systems as a way to save money.

C&K was so swelteringly hot that the other diners were either fanning themselves or sweating while they ate. Combine that with heavily spiced food and you want to leave the moment you sit down. This was during the summer months and after the 3rd of this happening, I was done. I went for takeout a few months later and it was probably 80 degrees in the place. The waitress was sweating. So uncalled for.

I went to lunch a few Sunday's ago at Bay Leaf and a wave of heat hit me as we walked into the door. The temperature outside was around 75 so no need for that. We sit down and already I feel my brow getting damp. I walked over to the buffet and peak at the AC on the wall. 78 degrees.

Of course I asked politely to a group of servers if they would turn the AC down a bit. They did, but you could tell they weren't comfortable doing it.

I'll take my Indian to go from now on.

Now LaLou...same excellent ownership and management by a wonderful LSU family. Great place with awesome people.

I am thinking about calling LaCaretta owners,

You should call. They are genuinely conscientious people. They would probably appreciate it. It's pretty hard for restaurant owners to respond to complaints if they don't know the complaint.

As to the OP-yeah, I'm done with Georges. That place is a clusterfrick.
