Reviews for Eastside Checker Board Pizza

04/27/2013 - some white dude
This place is a flipping joke. New to the area and walked to just buy a pizza. Well come to find out its a frikkin bar only and when I walked in through a small door that wasn't an actual entrance I asked where the entrance is and I was told around the corner half way to the alley.

I walk in and I make my way to a table to order a pizza. The security guard ask and I quote "where the FU*^ is your ID? I said what? "I just want to order a pizza" He got vulgar in explaining it was a effing bar and you have to have ID and I said dang this is too much work for a pizza and I walked out the door. The security guard followed me outside and even around the corner with mace in his hand threatening to mace me if I did not leave for which I had already walked out the door. Some Asian dork with an attitude who is employed by the owner of this place. I DOUBT he knows that the sidewalks are public domain and he has no say who is on the sidewalk whether he likes it or not EVEN THOUGH HE FOLLOWED ME OUT WHEN I LEFT AND WAS WALKING TO MY CAR PARKED A BLOCK AWAY. DORK!

I guess since I am not Asian or Hmong or gangster this puke decided to take it upon himself to make himself look all bad -ss and in fact all he did is bring a formal complaint of harassment and excessive use of duty to the state of MN dept. of public health and safety.

PUT SIGNS UP STATING ITS A BAR AND NO ONE UNDER 21 ALLOWED. I AM WAY OVER 21 AND I HAD MY ID.... BUT ASK FOR IT NICELY AND I WILL PRODUCE... TREAT OTHERS WITH RESPECT AND DIGNITY AND YOU WILL BE TREATED THE SAME. BE A DICK TO ME ABOUT IT AND YOU GET THE OWNER A SCATHING REVIEW. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE ITS PATHETIC AND THE RENTACOPS ARE EVEN MORE PATHETIC.
