I attempted to go here for dinner tonight. The manager refused to allow my daughter, who is anaphylactically allergic to dairy and tree nuts (it could kill her), to eat food that was brought in to the establishment and known to be safe while 4 other children and two adults were going to purchase dinner and drinks ringing up a substantial dinner bill. For a whopping $4 worth of chicken nuggets, he made my daughter feel completely alienated and embarrassed in front of her friends and others at the restaurant. She already deals with enough from being on such a limited diet and is not only self conscience about it, but is often very afraid to put anything in her mouth that she is not 100% certain of. This Neanderthal manager was too dumb to realize how much he hurt a poor little girl and wins the prize as the first jack-a@s in 11 years to not allow my daughter to eat something she knew wouldn't sent her to the hospital. After more than a few choice words with him we left, but this will not be the end of it. My new friend "Ricky" and the owners attached in the photo will be hearing from someone soon regarding a discrimination suit. Please feel free to call them relentlessly and give them a full ration of $hit for what they did tonight. They are more concerned about keeping $4 on what would have been a $150+ tab than keeping a little girl safe and comfortable. Way to go.
