Absolutely unacceptable.
While I was eating, a spider fell from the ceiling directly into my food.
When I asked for the manager, Gerard Campbell, he became angry and said the situation was “out of his control.” He did not remove the contaminated food and then told me that he did not need my business and that I was not welcome and should not return to the restaurant.
When I began recording and asked him to repeat what he said, he walked away.
Then — unbelievably — I was presented with my bill.
After a spider fell into my food.
After being told to leave.
I had to ask again through the server for a manager.
No apology. No professionalism. No basic food-safety response.
As a customer who was casually dressed, I could not help but feel that I was met with unwarranted hostility and disrespect while raising a legitimate safety concern. At a minimum, the response was dismissive and demeaning, and it left me questioning whether I was treated differently than other guests would have been.
This was not just a sanitation failure — it was hostile, dismissive, and humiliating treatment of a customer reporting a serious issue.
Corporate leadership and the Health Department have been notified.
I would strongly caution anyone considering dining here.
