"We approached the bar to figure out what happened and were told to wait. Going to the hostess area, we spoke with the manager, who claimed they thought we had left without paying. What?! Then he presented a napkin with blue highlighter writing, asserting it was a note we supposedly left saying we departed at 8:45. I quickly corrected him, saying it couldn’t have been that time since it wasn’t even 8:40 yet, and that it wasn’t either of our handwriting. Why would I leave my purse, which contained my car keys, work badge, and wallet, at the table?
The manager told me, “You’d be surprised.” I noticed cameras on the ceiling and urged him to check the video footage; it would clearly show we went directly to the restroom and then back to our booth. He responded, “I believe you.” If that’s the case, then why did they feel the need to touch my purse? He didn’t offer to settle our bill, but that’s not the main issue here.
The fact is, two women needed to take care of business, just like anyone else, and we were only gone for about five minutes when they decided to clear our table. This behavior was rude, unprofessional, and the claim that we left a note is just foolish! I absolutely will not be returning to this establishment! EVER!"
