12-31-23 10:30 am cst estimated, after waiting 30 minutes to be seated, yet were not, then being told our table was being readied, the female manager claiming she had just arrived, and that it was not her and did not know who had scratched our check in name thru. This was right after being told we were next by another female employee. My request for a free family meal had we stayed, was repeatly denied by this female manager, saying several other customers were there. I feel this is this managers way, or the other employees, to make customers walk out. Totally unacceptable service! 8801 S I H frontage Rd, *******, by Home Depot.
