Our party of 8 was seated on the patio by the hostess, and a waitress took our order. After being at the restaurant for 30 minutes, an employee came and told us that we needed to split our group because we had more than 6 people. We explained that 2 employees sat us and took our order and didn't mention it. That employee left and got Jeff the manager. He was extremely rude, placing blame on us for sitting together. We tried to explain the situation and he basically said that he didn't care, "wasn't going to deal with any of this crap, and that if we were going to threaten to leave that we could just leave. " our food came out at that point and we all left. The restaurant lost our over 100 dollar check, the waitress lost her tip, and they lost the cost of all the food they made. The manager never apologized for the mistake or anything. It was a situation that could have been fixed and instead it lost them a lot of money, lots of bad reviews, and we will not be back to the meridian location as long as Jeff is the manager. It was a pathetic experience and he either needs lots of training on management or he needs a demotion.
