the food, albeit overpriced, is always good here. many of the staff go out of their way to ensure a top notch experience. however, after what I witnessed yesterday, I don't think I will be returning. the heavy set hispanic manager was making rounds and noticed a table of men he clearly knew. One man in particular made a demand of the manager to "find him a girlfriend, now. young, skinny, and who speaks English." while I understand boys club/code, rather than act as a manager and dismiss this request, I watched as one by one the manager proceeded to direct his young female employees to the table and entice them to "get to know Dave who has a lot of money." as former wait staff myself, you do what your manager tells you, but it is not okay to being soliciting young female employees to tables of men three times their age and put your females in unsafe positions. I watched this man grope these poor women standing uncomfortably at a table, doing as their manager Instructed with looks of terror on their faces. last I checked, being a waitress/server should not mean you get trafficked and your workplace should be one of safety. your manager should protect you not solicit you. I have no interest in giving my money to a place being run by men who think its acceptable to put his staff in danger instead of protect them and tell dirty old men to cut it out or get out. being a server is hard enough with inappropriate men, without your manager enabling it further. I really loved this for deridder. but not if it means Deridder's girls aren't safe to work here.
