This wasn’t a family (he complains that a family was seated), it was a group of 25 people, without a reservation, and the restaurant probably did not have room for them. It has nothing to do with color.
Frankly, I think Denny’s is awful, in terms of both food and service, but a lot of people go there after church so it was probably crowded. I don’t know if the Lake City one is big or small but in any case, I don’t think they’d turn away customers unless they didn’t have space for them. But now everything becomes racial.
I love Denny’s, but I suppose next time, I will have to pay $89 dollars for pancakes after the chain settles with this bunch.
