****************************** UPDATE**********************
The business owner reached out to me to apologize and to inform me that the other patron who put me in a chokehold was arrested that same night. I contacted Upland Police Department who stated they had no record of any incident, let alone an arrest taking place that night, anywhere near Roundin 3rd. I appreciate the apology for this business failing to act on a matter of customer safety; however, I don't appreciate the seemingly untruthfulness of stating they did do something about it (albeit after I left....apparently and supposedly). I tried to respond to the business owners comment on my review, but I was unable to for some reason.
***************************************************************
Due to a very unfortunate incident, I will not be coming here any longer. Too bad, because I really like the food and the waiters/waitresses.
During my last visit, I came in with a group of friends. Halfway through our meal, as I was standing by two of my friends, a guy at the bar shouts to me that my football team "sucked" (I was wearing a team jersey). I ignored the guy, but apparently that didn't work, as he made he way over to our table.
I'll spare you the unnecessary details, but give you pertinent ones: this guy seemed drunk (his cousin said as much, and asked us to try to ignore him). He came up from behind me and put me in chokehold. He was loud and obnoxious. He kissed me close to my mouth, but on the cheek...twice. He claimed to be, and offered to prove to me he was "The Italian Stallion". He continued to harass me, putting his arms around me, hugging me and asking for kisses.
Now, the most important detail is this: Not one person at the establishment decided to do anything about it. Not a phone call to a manager. Not a phone call to the police. Not a polite word to their obnoxious patron to please leave the other patrons alone. Nothing.
The way the staff allowed this man to behave so badly lends to my belief he's a regular. Even if he isn't; however, behavior like this shouldn't be tolerated. I had to stand there, and be harassed and choked for what seemed like an eternity. I will never return here.
