Is it the restaurants problem? Customer self-entitlement

    He is not saying if you can't control your kids. He is saying all kids good or bad. Doesn't matter to him. If he sees a kid your an asshole. shrug

    "The original comment was based on the OP's scenario of decent restaurant and awful kids/parenting."

    Who said that?

    If you want an amazing steak, hit up a Ruth Chris steakhouse. They do a butter sear at like 1500. No way you can duplicate that.

    But anybody can rock out a Fleming's steak with like an $800 investment. If you've got kids, that pays for itself in like a year.

    Ruth's chris $16 spicy lobster appetizer is the nuts. No need for entree

    Having a RC Filet Mignon is like the only time a man is allowed to audibly orgasm in public and everyone else is cool with it. Gimme that bad boy rare. No sauce. I just want meat.

    And some of those garlic mashed potatoes. Actually, ALL of the garlic mashed potatoes.

    I will actually pretty soon: I'm taking my girlfriend there.

    Also, crappy Mexican is always the best Mexican. When your son (or you) can speak spanish, all the more power to you.

    I hate kids. But yes the restaurant should replace it out of generosity. It probably cost the a buck or so.

    I love kids, I hate shitty parents.

    Restaurants do not get that type of discount on alcohol. When you order a case of wine you will get a case discount which is one bottle free out of 12 or 15 depending on the wine. Same thing for liquor.

    I actually order my liquor through my favorite bar, and if an old lady is drinking a 6-10 dollar glass of wine it's reasonable to think the glass actually cost them a dollar or 2.

    I'm a restaurant manager. If its a shitty restaurant and they're wine cost $10 a bottle then yeah it cost them $2 or $3, but thats usually not the case even in your casual dining restaurants. We don't carry that type of wine in my restaurant though.

    The cost is not important. The principle is. Not pointing at you, just quoting you for convo context :)

    had them that way in New Mexico, and since then, the only way the wife makes them.

    When made with home made tortillas, and from scratch enchilada sauce, about as good as a meal gets...a cut below a great steak imo

    I got all that. I actually like outback steaks and a couple local places better. Always thought the worst part about Flemmings was I couldn't drink a sip of,water without them filling the glass up as I was setting it back down. I just want to eat and have basic service.

    Outback can burn in hell

  • As a bartender/server, I would have gotten her a new glass.

    No big deal. Shit happens.

    Now if the old whore had snapped at me, that's another issue.

  • To answer the kid issue, I have no problems with kids at my tables as long as they aren't being shitheads.

    When they're running around while we're busy and screaming murder, that's when I'm ready to punt one across our parking lot.

    I remember one incident where this table brought in a toddler that screamed and cried the entire time they were there. My boss went by asking if they could do something about the noise.

    Their response, and I kid you not, was "What do you want us to do? We can't control him"

    There needs to be an IQ test to become a parent.

    Absolutely. Just because you can spell parent it doesn't make you a good one. Whoop that ass if they need it.

  • We've takin our kids to some pretty nice restaurants. We are quick as hell to pull the trigger if need be though. My 3 year old daughter is generally well behaved, 14 month old son can get out of hand though. Within seconds of 1 of them fussing, 1 of us is taking them at least to the waiting area in front of restaurant. It's only happened twice really, nice part is, both times we were thanked by other patrons, for handling it the way we did so they could enjoy their meal. I won't think twice to have a manager call out parents that don't do the same. I don't need peace and quiet, but don't want some brat with lazy parents ruining my time either
