The gf and I had our Valentine's Day dinner just about runined by an extremely intoxicated couple sitting next to us. The manager removed the bottle of wine from the bill and apologized. After writing a letter to describe the night, the entire bill was refunded and we received a gift certificate.

Excellent way to treat customers/clients. We will be enjoying many more filets and praline freezes in the future.

i usually frown against such practices but in cases like this i would do just the same, or really just handle it there in the restaurant.

Went there for my birthday dinner in october... had a rude waitress. We called the manager the next day just to tell him about her and to talk to her. He refunded the entire $600 meal and sent me a $150 gift card

We didn't ask to be refunded because the food was damn good... but I'm not going to say no to him giving us $600 back

Why didn't you request to be moved? What did this "intoxicated couple" do that made you feel that you were deserving of a free meal at Ruth's?

My wife and I would have laughed our asses off if there was a shithoused couple next to us. Nights like that are for bonding, you're lucky to have people to make fun of. I probably would have sent a round over and a business card for a cab company.

If you read the whole thread you can get a pretty good idea what the guy was getting at.

What an absolute joke....probably the type that pulls out a thermometer when he get his cup of coffee at starbucks.

And in your fishing thread you said it was people like me that made this country the way it is. Seems it is the people like that always want soemthing for nothing.

I feel like I can almost predict your next thread:

I filled my truck this morning and the pump was slow. I am writing a letter to the CEO of shell in hopes of getting rights to an oil well as compensation.

No doubt . But, not everybody can handle that, and I certainly understand certain people wanting to move.

Would like to hear full story.

Ruth's gives out lots of freebies. My roommate works there and I see gift cards all over the house

That said, I think taking advantage of their great management is a bit much. Children can be just as annoying as a drunk couple in a nice restaurant but I'd ask to be moved or just chalk it up to bad luck before I write the restaurant about it.

What did you really expect with the letter? If they would have just written you back apologizing with no free shite, would you have written them off?

Be more specific. What did said couple exactly do to "ruin" your valentine's day dinner?
