Having eaten there before as it is my policy to eat in privately owned neighborhood restaurants, I invited 8 friends to lunch. I checked the hours of operation posted on the wall outside the restaurant and indeed it was open for lunch. Eight of us got there at 1:00 on a Wed afternoon. Restaurant sealed shut...No note no communication. I called the restaurant and the owner told me she is allowed to close whenever she wants and has no obligation to anyone. And slammed the phone down. Before she had a chance to do that, I told her she could write some sort of note on the door or post something saying that she will close if she has no customers or that lunch requires a reservation. Perhaps her slamming the phone down, instead of a nice apology is the reason that there were NO customers.
