No, the restaurant was not “full”. The problem is that, as has been mentioned before, you are eating at the restaurant for the experience, not just the food.I don't understand this complaint. You got the food and the table you wanted in a restaurant that is going to be 100% full all of the time. Someone is going to be at that table, which you think is "shaming" you?
I think it was nice to give you the option of the bar. You declined, what's the problem?
The main problem as I had said before, is that the manager was quite dismissive of my concerns and that he made me feel ashamed for raising my concerns.
I have worked in customer service for a long time and if I had treated a customer like the hostess or the night manager, I would have been fired immediately.
