I advise you to take seriously consideration of choosing this restaurant given my bad experience.
The waitress at this restaurant was discriminatory toward Asians and foreigners who don’t speak French. When my daughter and I arrived at the restaurant and took a seat, the waitress came over to clean the table. Suddenly, she accused my daughter of taking a 2-euro coin that had been left by previous guests, claiming it was her tip.
Since she was speaking French, I didn’t fully understand what she was saying at first. I kindly asked another table behind us what was going on, and they tried to explain her complaint to me.
I was shocked and upset. I told the waitress in English:
“No, young lady, my daughter did not steal your money. That coin was one I gave her to play with the Gacha machine next to this restaurant. The machine only accepts two 1-euro coins, not one 2-euro coin.”
But she didn’t believe us.
I then went inside the restaurant (since our table was on the terrace) and asked to speak with the manager, who fortunately spoke English. I explained to him that this was not about the money—I asked him to check the security cameras and told him I was prepared to call the police to prove my daughter’s innocence.
I clearly told the manager two things:
1. My daughter did not take the 2-euro coin from the table.
2. The waitress needed to apologize to my daughter in front of the other guests.
After pressure from the manager, the waitress finally apologized to both my daughter and me in front of everyone.
This was a very upsetting experience. My daughter is only 13 years old, and the incident caused her emotional stress. However, it also taught her an important lesson: she must stand up for her rights.
