The co-owner is probably his son.

the co-owner never once apologized for their bad behavior, never expressed remorse for a customer being mistreated. he only spoke of himself and his dreams.

Im happy for Karla and all but let’s move on. She got hers now let the restaurant be. There are other people being hurt like the employees who need to make a living.

Tbh the food is just ok. And the part owner they claim to fire became a silent owner. We know how yall work.

If the worse thing that was said was that she doesn’t have enuff followers to represent the restaurant, is canceling the restaurant warranted? Considering there are much worse things going on in the country and world?

The damage has been done & he’ll be a silent partner most likely.

Jacinth is literally the only one without the context🙄 Karla was invited there and then treated terribly.

I wonder what is the POV from the person who invited her to do the review of the restaurant.

As someone who does social media for hospitality the chef was prob mad he had to give his food away for free and is no reflection of the team as they were the ones who invited her and clearly saw her value

Jacinth is the only one (out of millions) in the dark and without context

Pretty sure we can all agree the chef’s behavior is unacceptable. Also pretty sure we can all agree everyone has been experiencing terrible customer service recently, but only influencers would use their platform to get someone fired. The average person might get a coffee on the house 🙃 if we’re lucky
