Going out to eat can be a relaxing and enjoyable experience, but when poor service comes into play, it can quickly turn into a frustrating situation. Whether it’s slow service, mistakes in your order, or a lack of attention from the staff, it can be tempting to lose your cool and become impatient.

However, practicing patience at a restaurant with poor service can not only make the experience more bearable, but it can also lead to better outcomes for everyone involved.
Recently, Tiktoker @daeslb filmed her friend calling the restaurant Eat.Drink.Relax in Baltimore. They had reserved a table for a party but waited over 30 minutes for a server to arrive.
“In my defense, we didn’t get up and leave because we already reserved and paid for mimosas online and it was my best friend’s birthday.”
She went on to mention in the comments that they weren’t charged for the mimosas they ordered, but then another comment from her friend said they paid beforehand.
People in the comments had a lot to say about the matter.
“Nah, I would have left,” a commenter said. “They must not want my money lol.”
“The fact that she had to call is crazy smh.”
“Waiting 30 mins no server or nothing is crazyyyyyyyy.”
“Girl I would have left and got my money back cus no way in heck…y’all had to call and y’all in the restaurant.”
“Should’ve just left. The food must be good if y’all doing this much lol.”
“I would have gotten up and left and gave a bad review and call corporate.”
