understand their frustration but if I go into a restaurant and they want to hold my ID then I’m just leaving.. I’d rather not dine at an establishment that feels their customers are guilty until proven innocent


You're basically opening a tab like you would at a bar.

It is unfortunate that it has come to that for this restaurant, but it wouldn't be a deal breaker for me.

Myrtle Beach is the trashiest of the southern beaches except maybe Biloxi. Maybe…

Wish they would implement that here in some places. Mofo gypsies love to dine and dash.

A bar tab situation is different. If they want to make the encounter a counter service restaurant then that’s cool, I’ll pay when I order but if you seat me and need my ID as collateral then I just don’t think that’s the place I’d enjoy dining at for a meal

Then tell all those thieves to stop screwing it up for you.

This shite has got to stop somewhere and if it has to come to stuff like this then so be it.

I'd understand it fully. Especially a place like Myrtle Beach. It's sad how much these people have ruined this once great country. Promote trash culture and people in the media and this is what you get. Wonder how many TikTok dine and dash videos there are or snap or insta or whatever. We don't need non Soros DA's... we need flame throwers.

Where exactly do I lineup to tell them?

Im empathetic to the restaurant’s predicament Having partially owned a few over the years but I choose to not spend my money at a place that has this requirement.. I wouldn’t blast them for their decision but again I’m not willingly going to spend my money if required to hand over my ID as collateral…. Do people not realize the info you are giving them?

I'm surprised it took this long for some to do it. This has been a problem for years particularly in the heavy tourist areas.

I could run a list of how your data is collected but I will keep my comments on restaurants. Do not call any complaint lines. Those are run by companies that collect and sell your data.

What does that have to do with anything?? It does not hurt you at all to provide an idea or credit card. It's not like they are going to steal it and not give it back...
If a customer steals food, that's $ they're never getting back
