I went out for dinner with my sister, who is a senior like me, and our mom, who is 86 years old,…read morefor Mother's Day, followed by a show afterward. We gave ourselves about an hour or more for dinner at Tavern 101 before the show. We sat down, ordered our drinks, and then our food afterward. I got a hot dog, and my mom and sister shared a hamburger. The place was not busy yet and still had a lot of open seats. After some time, we asked about our meals because it was taking a really long time. The waiter said he would check on it. After some more time, we still did not have our food. I asked the waiter to cancel my hot dog because I knew I would not be able to eat it there or take it with me. We went out for dinner to eat out, not to take it home if we could with us. I cannot eat that fast; it takes me some time to eat because of a medical condition. By this time, it had been about 45 minutes. After a short time, my hot dog came out in a to-go container and was plopped down in front of me, according to my mom. I refused it because I had canceled it. I would have to leave it there and not take it with me because of what was planned. Shortly after, my sister's and mom's hamburger also came out in a to-go box that they did not ask for in a box. We requested my hotdog be taken off the bill and for our bill and asked to see a manager. Brandon M. came out wearing an apron and gloves and seemed upset and stressed. He was not personable; he just talked about wait times and did not ask about our side of the story. He did not ask us any questions, we were just talked to, If anything, he escalated the situation. Afterward, he came back out with the hot dog, and I refused it again. He said to me, "You are refusing it again for a second time," and I replied, "Yes." He then said I was banned from all Downtown Restaurant Investments places (Tavern 101, Old City Hall, Drift, Molasses Smoke House & Bar and Lucky Bunny). I told him we would see, because I could not believe I would be banned from places for refusing a hot dog. I asked him why, and he said it was because I refused the hot dog. I tried to explain calmly what happened, but he did not want to hear anything. He said, "What do you expect? Your food to come out in one minute?" I said no, but 15 to 20 minutes, about industry standard, would be reasonable. I told him that other tables received their food before we did, even though they were seated after us. He didn't care about anything that was said; he was just being arrogant. We paid the bill, and I tipped the waiter in cash, saying he did a good job. I spoke to Brandon again for a quick second on the way out about what happened. All seemed fine to me then. A couple of days later, I reached out to Christy (Area Supervisor) and told her what happened. She was very professional, understood the situation and has a good heart and soul. She said not to worry about it and that she would check into it. She called me back, seeming very sad, to tell me that I was indeed banned from all Downtown Restaurant Investments because Brandon claimed I was rude to the staff, and he is the owner and Vice President of Downtown Restaurant Investments. I said, "Okay, thank you." And if you can have Brandon call me so we can talk about this more. He never called. We only talked to three staff members there. The waiter, Brandon and a girl waitress. The waiter and waitress was all nice. Since then, this incident has been causing me emotional stress and losing sleep over the fact that his accusations are not warranted. I do not know what happened behind the scenes in the kitchen or what was said. But if you talk to me, my sister, and definitely my 86-year-old mom, I was not rude. I believe this is something that Brandon came up with to put a bad stereotype, discredit me and diminish my character to help justify his poor management actions towards me. Me being rude never came up at dinner. I do not know why he is making up false stories of what happened. All we wanted was a nice Mother's Day dinner at/in the restaurant that day. I think when Brandon said I was banned from all Downtown Restaurant Investments, he expected a bigger reaction from me. But it did not bother me at all, and it still doesn't to this day. Bay City has so many great places to eat with better management and customer service that truly care for their customers, not just say it.
