Reviews for Portabellos

We had a bizarre and disturbing experience here. We had a reservation and a table of five on a Saturday night. When we sat down, it took the owner 15 minutes to even get menus to us because he seemed to be the only one there, and we were actually totally cool about this. We asked a few questions about the menu, and then he was rushing off and apologizing, a member of our party said "Okay, we get it, you've got like 18 tables here." The owner snapped at us "You're done. Get out." And we sat there just dumbfounded until he came back and said "You're done" again. I followed him after he left our table telling him we didn't understand, asking did we offend him, and he was just kept repeating it. I honestly don't know what was going with this guy but in retrospect I got some bad vibes when we first walked in. Not going to definitely say it was racism because it's never "definitely" racism but from what I could see at a glance, in a restaurant full of older white families, we were the only table that had an Asian male, a black male, and woman of Middle Eastern descent.
