What's your worst restaurant experience?
- Went to a pub and got chicken wings, they were raw, and still cold. Sent them back, I'm Pretty sure they put them in the microwave for 30 seconds, and they were still raw.
My girlfriend ordered a burger, it was also uncooked, barely seared on the outside and ice cold in the middle.
We just got up and left.

- Went in for lunch and 3 days later I was in the hospital for Salmonella. They had no hot water and the dishwasher was broken. A lot of people got sick. I ended up being out of work for a month.

- At the bottom of my Caesar salad, a used band-aid with a little spot of blood in the middle. Which I found after I ate most of the salad.
At least they comped me the salad, I guess.

- I was at a hole in the wall Chinese restaurant when I was visiting California as a kid. A car drove through the entrance. Didn't get any of my food yet.
We went somewhere else for lunch after that.

- Found a beetle in my meal at Chili's. Told the server, who told the manager, who refused to budge and insisted that I pay full price because of the *chance* that I put it in there deliberately.
Yeah, I just carry around a beetle in my pocket, and when nobody is looking, I throw that fucker in my meal which I am paying for. Haven't gone back.

- Cockroaches fell out of the ceiling and onto our table while eating.

- Ordered a meal worth $20+ at a fast food restaurant, and once our order came out, another person came and took it. We showed the receipt to the manager proving it was ours and they didn't do anything about it.

- TGIF literally every time I go there. The worst was when two of us ordered their fried chicken salad. Out comes one fried chicken salad and one plain salad. We're like hey...what is this? So they take BOTH plates back which makes no sense to me, and out they come with two fried chicken salads with half the chicken missing on mine. I called them out on it and the manager comes over and tells us to leave.

- Placed our orders, kid's was not what she wanted. Sent it back. Manager comes out and starts explaining to 8 year old that she is being wasteful. We interrupt, he gets mad and starts yelling at us because he'll have to throw away this sandwich! Fine, just bring us what we ordered. No, you people can gtfo! So we left. He ran out after us, yelling "aren't you going to pay?!"
No, sorry, crazy manager man. Happily his little restaurant closed about a year later.
