Today was Easter, and it was a BEAUTIFUL day here in my city. My friend & I decided to get away from the west side and take a trip to the beach. We decided to eat at Bukkets. First off, i ordered a frozen strawberry daquari along with my food. When i got it, to me it jus seemed like crushed up ice in juice, very low quality for $7.00. I literally took 1 sip and sent it back and asked for a beer instead. He took it bak then brought the beer, then returns with the daquari (which i had taken 1 sip out of my beer by this point) and told me that his manager wouldnt take the daquari off tha bill. So as i did not drink another sip of the beer either i asked for the manager.. she came out and was not in any way going to listen to anything i had to say. She told me i was paying for the daquari and now for the beer also. Within her speech she immediently started with she probably said sh*t and f**k about 10 times each. I have never been do disrespected for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON by someone that i didnt even in any way get rude with. I jus kept thinking i have to be dreaming.. was this seriously happening?? What kind of people are running this place?? I recorded the last half that shows them talkin to us and you can hear all of us talking. Its completely shocking to hear a restaraunt seriously talk to you like this! Bad buisness isnt even the right word for how we were treated. I am a head waitress at a restaraunt and there are times when people do try to get over on you.. but i am a normal person who has money to pay for what i want.. but i like quality.. and when i had to pay $16.00 out of my pocket for 1 sip of a daquri (that was not a correctly prepared daquari) and 1 sip out of a beer i was just speechless. She actually called the police! On a normal, civilized, paying customer that wasnt even acting out like the majority of people do nowadays, there was never a scene made or anything.. i was just speechless. If i could post the video i would. To be honest i will probably never take another step in that area code or to the beach ever again in my life. And i have lived in jacksonville my whole life, just never been to the southside much. But they were acting more ignorant then some of these customers i get in a restaraunt on the westside. Worst experience Ive ever had i my entire life out to eat. Perioud.
