"Then, a server approached and informed me that I couldn't share my all-you-can-eat items. I was taken aback—I'm simply sharing a small bite with my 9-year-old daughter who was eagerly waiting for her own meal. Another waiter then came over, and I felt compelled to tell her not to watch me but rather to bring my daughter's food if I couldn’t share a taste of what I was eating.
I was deeply offended by the way my daughter and I were treated over something as simple as tasting food from the all-you-can-eat menu while she waited for her own order. As an African American woman with an African American child, I found the harassment and discriminatory behavior we experienced today to be unacceptable. I will not be returning, and I will encourage others to consider the same. The atmosphere felt racially charged, and unfortunately, the quality of the food has declined as well. The treatment we received was truly horrific."
