How busy was this place? How’s it possible to not see your waiter for an hour and then the hostess booth is completely vacant?

I would have refused to pay for the meal even if they brought the steak out straightaway but not paying for the wine and apps were theft.



So id the steaks came out and you ate them, that wouldntbe theft?

I feel bad about stiffing today. Is there an appropriate way to make it right? I don’t want any freebies as I won’t go there again


Hell no. It's their fault.

I wouldn't make a special trip back to pay. It's their job to have staff available.

I just sent the manager a link to this thread.

Once the manager contacts the authorities, the authorities will subpoena Chicken for your IP address

Your arse is done

I bet your are trashy.
You still have to pay for what you ate/drank. At a minimum he should have spoken to a manager and possibly got it comped.

No.

Literally no different than turning back an over cooked steak.

If you get up and wish to settle your bill because of poor service, it’s kinda unreasonable to charge the service not provided.

What you think this is, a hospital?


The difference is in if you obtained benefit from it.

Most places will make it right if you take a few bites and you don’t like it/wasn’t quite what was ordered even if it means throwing it away.

What they do dig their heels in over is if you eat it all and then suddenly raise hell about it.

ETA: looks like we misread each other.

I didn’t mean in the orginal post that I would eat it and then not pay with the delay.

I meant I wouldn’t accept the flurry of “OMG IM SO SORRY LET ME GET YOUR STEAK FOR YOU RIGHT NOW!!!!!” when you attempted to close the bill. Why would I want a chilled steak that has been sitting out for who knows how long and who knows how they will reheat.

I can say you are incorrect, and can also speculate you're a pushover.

By effeminately walking out of the restaurant in a tizzy?...he literally could have flagged down any of the multiple servers, manager, or even the guy who scrapes the breadcrumbs off the tablecloth into his hand to at least pay for the wine.

Yeah, I'm sure it was a point well-received.

The waiter was being a shitty waiter. Maybe he will learn not to be short and suck at his profession.

Why would I have to be there? Do I need to explain how a restaurant works to you?

So you could verify there was this wait staff and bread crumb sweeper all on the floor available to be flagged down.
