We arrived on time for our reservation at 7:15 PM on Saturday, May 17, 2025, and were greeted by the owner, Mr. Francesco Catullo. We had a table in the back corner of the restaurant. First, my husband ordered a Martini drink from the bar, and then we ordered an appetizer. We placed the order for the main entree. We received good attention from the waiters since they knew us as customers. At 8:12, when dinners were being served, the owner approached our table aggressively, requesting that we leave because he needed the table. We asked if it was a mistake, and the owner said no. We paid our bill. We refused to take the boxed dinners that the waiter rushed to bring. When I started to put on my jacket, I discovered the reason: I was wearing a yellow ribbon 🎗️, a symbol of support for the hostages in the Middle East, and I was wearing a necklace with the Jewish symbol of LIFE. Antisemitism was the only reason.
