i was visiting from out of town with a group of friends. i'm not a big drinker and i'm mostly vegan. i just had dinner before coming, but was still hungry and there was not much of anything healthy on the menu. i asked the waitress if they might be able to accomodate a special request of a bowl of greens only with olive oil and vinegar. she asked me if i wanted a small or large and i stated a "large side salad". it came out and was a nice portion. but then the bill came and it was for $9 - the cost of a regular entree-sized salad with toppings. i asked the waitress if anything could be done about the price. she hadn't been carrying around the best attitude in the world, but it got even worse when i tried to reason with her on a price for a bowl of lettuce - LITERALLY. she told me that's the price. made it clear she wasn't interested in talking to or helping me any further, and got the manager. that's when things got weirder. the manager came over and asked me very aggressively if "there was a problem." i explained the situation and that i thought there was a miscommunication. don't get me wrong - i was completely willing to pay a reasonable amount for a bowl of lettuce (LITERALLY!), but i felt that $9 was not very accomodating. he puffed about it and said he would just make it a side salad - which was actually less than i was willing to pay, but he didn't seem open to discussion so i didn't extend the conversation. after the bill was dropped off and paid for, he came back - this time to the side of me in a very aggressive and intrusive way - and LECTURED ME on how to order next time and that they can't take special requests like that. it was incredibly bizarre and clearly this big man child has some anger issues/lack of social awareness. i didn't even bother to look at him or respond. the whole table was weirded out - way to cause unnecessary friction between your establishment and eight patrons DUDE! i realize this is arizona, but this is also 2013. a lot of people have dietary restrictions and find their place at your restaurant for some reason (in my case, social reasons). from time to time, special meal requests are going to come up. my suggestion? try to be politely accommodating instead of acting like a bunch of irritated, angry babies. it's not that difficult. and if you can't do it, don't serve or manage a restaurant.
