I highly doubt that a person would put information on this board about treatment in a restaurant, or how they feel about the church they attend, just for sport.

A person’s perceptions are very real to them despite what anyone else feels about their experiences at a location.

In fact I have seen the opinions of three posters, with essentially the same experience at one of the local restaurants, be marginalized by several posters because they did not experience it themselves and because they like the establishment.

I find it funny that some establishments (does Too Jays come to mind?) rarely get bad reviews here. Must be something to it?

I will continue to take your views into consideration when dining, purchasing, praying; any time I spend my time or money. You have yet to lead me wrong.

I agree with tpop1. Mst of the other posts on this thread (so far) go to show that you are trying to disprove what he just said.

You are defending the opposite of what he is trying to say and all he is trying to say is that people are posting a real situation and should be taken seriously. There is no need to defend the establishment, etc if you have NOT experienced the problem yourself. In some cases I have also experienced the same problem and have been rebuffed also. Makes no sense.
