I appreciated the menu being in English and the lady was kind and patient since we only spoke spanish and english. A minute or two after my mom paid the bill and went to the church nearby, I went back to the restaurant because my grandmother had to go to the bathroom. As I was waiting for the lady to ask if my grandmother can use the bathroom, a tall bald man came up and asked what do we want. I told him for the bathroom and was about to say because we had eaten here, he cut me off and put his hands on me. He pulled my shoulder roughly and screamed at me telling me to get out. He kept pushing me out of the restaurant as I proceeded to tell him that we ate here not even 2 mins ago and pointed at the lady that she knows us. She began laughing at us and then as my grandma and I were almost out of the restaurant, she spoke to him in Italian and I guess told her we did eat here. He then said sorry blatantly and went to sit back outside. If it weren’t for my grandma who needed to use the bathroom eagerly, I would have been a little more tough with my word choice. Such a rude man, I believe he is the owner. This event had ruined my first day, I was about to cry from the frustration I felt because of the man’s disgusting attitude as well the women who kept smiling and laughing at how the man was treating us. You can eat at this restaurant and eat well cooked food but just be warned at how easily the people working here can switch their attitude and turn violent on you. I’m from NY and if there were hands placed on me there, they would be arrested. There are cameras there so if anything similarly happens to you with the owner then please file a police order. Wish I did but I didn’t know how to at the time. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Food: 3 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 1

He doesn't want to serve us when we go with children. Rude and pitiful. I would add a three-letter prefix. Avoid this site.
