we were here tubing & came after to get something to eat before the drive back to houston. mercedes was incredible, but sadly the patrons and a caucasian man who was perceived to be the manager were racist and disrespectful. we had a party of 14, with 6 adults (split checks) and midway through dinner the “floor manager” (or gm) came to my minor son to say, “hey man! excuse me.” my husband interrupted and asked him what he needed, “we are getting complaints from people who eat here all the time that you are being too loud. if you can’t keep it down...”. my husband replied, “to-go box please”. mind you, we had spent the entire time enduring dirty looks and muffled conversations about our entire section from the customers around us. the manager then hid in the back talking to the waiters (as they pointed at our table) for the duration of our payment and exit. then, as we were leaving, patrons of this business called us “wetbacks”. i am sorry, but my family is from the united states of america & i am from the original settlers of the united states and a granddaughter of the civil & revolutionary wars. completely european background (not that it should matter to receive service after spending hundreds of dollars in this city and at least $300 here). yes, my husband, his family, and my children share different heritages but we shouldn’t have to feel like we are outsiders in a town that depends on tourism for their local economy. unacceptable treatment to paying customers, and to make it worse to attempt to address it to a child and not the adults at the table is a whole other level of disrespect. if you are not white, be prepared to be stared at and asked to leave (especially if you have children who are loud & exited after their day on the river). i guess children in new braunfels don’t get loud or make any noise when seated at separate tables (due to covid-19). p.s. the child making the most noise was a tired two year old. pretty sad ...we paid so much and in the end got treated worse than the trash. that is saying a lot from us since three of the people seated at these tables work full-time in restaurants (in houston where they are child friendly).
