"TLDR: This whole ordeal would have been nothing if Sparta Family Restaurant had simply not knowingly lied to us. If they told us the truth we would not have ordered the fried chicken and gotten other foods we like instead. But no, the knowingly lied, attempted to gaslight us into thinking our food was always chicken, and then refused to drop the price down more than $1!! Insane that they thought it was appropriate to switch main proteins without telling the table. While the food is normally pretty good, the service is mediocre at best. Our last trip ended worse than all other trips combined. We often go to eat our favorite Country Fried Steak. This time we brought family from far away to eat the Country Fried Steak. Sadly, they served us chicken instead! When I asked nicely (off to the side) about the chicken instead of steak the thin waitress with pink died hair, bangs, and heavy black eyeliner attempted to gaslight me. She said that sometimes the steak is small. I showed her the white chicken meat so she could not lie about it being a small steak. Then she told me that sometimes Country Fried Steak is actually chicken. When I told her I knew she was lying since we ate Country Fried Steak at that restaurant often she finally told me the truth. Their delivery was wrong. Someone delivered chicken to them instead of steak. I told her I would understand this and not be mad if the restaurant had not lied. The whole wait staff confirmed that they were scamming people all day by knowingly selling them chicken instead of steak at steak prices! When I confronted the wait staff manager about it she was unwilling to help us. They talked down to our table and told us to either eat it or get new dishes. If we had not just spent all day working on the house and were not starving at that point we would have left. Since some of the table had started to eat. We simply finished our meal, paid, and left. I asked to speak to a manager or someone who could help. The wait staff manager said the higher up manager (male I did not see) would stop by our table when he arrived. He came in and left without addressing any issues at our table."
