8. I had a similar experience

I took my then-wife and our son to a local restaurant. They had about thirty tables and there were only two that were occupied. The hostess wouldn't seat us because we didn't have a reservation. She asked us if we'd like to wait in the bar for half an hour. I observed that we had a six-year old boy with us and hanging in the bar was not an option. She said that they were expecting a rush in about 15 minutes. I said that's ridiculous and thanks but no thanks.

We never went back. A couple of months later, the restaurant had a fire and went out of business.

Remember, restaurants are service establishments. If they don't treat you-- the customer!-- well, fuck 'em.
