You have every right to explain to waitstaff what's beneficial to their financial position (with regards to the potential $20 tip) and doing so ALWAYS results in a good experience for the customer . Perhaps you were thinking she was going to help you get a position at Charles Schwab? Also, I'd guess 98% of waitstaff could care less about the $75 you're bringing in for the restaurant. I can't believe this 5th class waitstaff citizen (in a private establishment) had the nerve to not yield to you. Seriously, the absolute second any waitstaff ever told me that everyone out of 9 had to order I'd be on my way to the door as I would have known this waitstaffer would rather me get hit by a bus than wait on me, I guess some people need to have a picture drawn but whatever. That and the Waffle house is less than a mile form the shiny diner nullifying these shenanigans...[Edited on February 5, 2010 at 11:55 PM. Reason : .]

where is this place? i feel like i have been there before
2/6/2010 12:29:36 AM
Off of Buck Jones road near Cary Crossroads. It is beside Borders and Ice House (ice skating) and across the street from Northern Tools.
2/6/2010 12:49:12 AM
It's up near Crossroads.I really wish someone would open a good diner in Raleigh. Enough Yankees around here to do it you would think.
2/6/2010 12:49:25 AM
oh yeah, definitely have been there several times.....usually late night
2/6/2010 1:12:23 AM
I boycott Gypsy's because it's overpriced garbage food, not because you don't know how to put a bitch in her place.
2/6/2010 1:57:45 AM
farmer's market > gypsy's
2/6/2010 2:12:56 AM
I don't eat there anyway, since their food is shitty, but this sounds like a classic case of being a group of cheap and rambunctious college kids.
2/6/2010 2:14:24 AM
pathetic of gypsy's, but I do remember going to rockola in like 2000 when I was a junior and having a bunch of girls who ordered water and demanded more bread. I didn't even know full dining protocol at that point but I was still unnerved
2/6/2010 2:14:29 AM
2/6/2010 2:26:23 AM
Let's see where will I start
2/6/2010 3:37:01 AM
props for leaving. i thought this was a typical rant where you caved to the demands of a 65 year old waitress .
2/6/2010 11:14:45 AM
^^well he posted it at 9:50...which means he was probably there at least a couple hours before. (assuming that after they left, he and his friends went somewhere else).so i hope he wasnt drunk [Edited on February 6, 2010 at 11:18 AM. Reason : hgfhygf]
2/6/2010 11:16:46 AM
If diners didn't serve to drunk loud college students, they would be out of business. I highly doubt they were thrown out for being loud.
2/6/2010 11:19:40 AM
Have never been, havnt heard anything on it till now so I guess Ill stay away. While I understand the meeting and no ordering bit, you cant judge on someone ordering water. Unless I order a real drink, I normally get water as I hate soda when I eat out. I do however understand this as when I was in HS we used to go to this place where I lived. I always made sure I ordered something, then again if it was small groups, at least someones ordering (I def agree if it was 2 or 3 out of 10), and normally this place didnt have a lot of ppl in it, and I know a lot of resturants like some people in it and not dead empty.

I don't like this place either. Waitress was a smartass to me over something on the menu that I thought included fries.
2/6/2010 12:28:44 PM
Gypsy's is like an overpriced Waffle House that caters to the low self-esteem market.
2/6/2010 12:30:07 PM
2/6/2010 12:30:13 PM
^I was wondering how long that was going to take.
2/6/2010 12:51:27 PM
nvm.[Edited on February 6, 2010 at 2:54 PM. Reason : ...]
2/6/2010 2:44:31 PM
I'd leave if they demanded everyone in the group order even if I was ordering. I have food allergies and if I want to spend time with friends I'm not paying for some shit I can't even eat.
2/6/2010 4:20:45 PM
i love gypsy'swhy couldn't the last person order a coffee or just say he/she was sharing with someone? Seems like a very easy problem to get around
2/6/2010 7:24:26 PM
^ Or the waitress could have just not been a cunt.
2/6/2010 7:33:10 PM
I would have walked out too. I could understand if the place was packed and half of the group was not ordering, but just one or two people not ordering? that's just bad form.
2/6/2010 7:40:28 PM
2/6/2010 7:50:36 PM
I love to get Reuben's sandwich there, but the last time I've been there was over 2 years ago.
2/6/2010 8:44:41 PM
I've really never understood waitresses getting their panties in a bunch over people ordering water. Sure, the restaurant has every incentive to convince customers to fork over $2.49 for a product that costs them about a nickel. But the waitress stands to make, what, maybe an extra half dollar?
2/6/2010 11:26:46 PM
4 extra half dollars is 2 whole dollars2 WHOLE DOLLARS
2/6/2010 11:29:13 PM
Yes, but what if those two whole dollars are in the form of one two dollar bill ???
2/6/2010 11:40:58 PM
then its queer
2/6/2010 11:41:57 PM
2/6/2010 11:43:17 PM
^we had been ice skating next door for the previous two hours.
2/6/2010 11:44:42 PM
Went there several years ago with some friends for Milkshakes. Waitress said they didn't make them because the ice cream was in the freezer.
2/6/2010 11:46:09 PM
^as opposed to...?
2/6/2010 11:47:00 PM
^^ hahaha wtf
2/6/2010 11:48:50 PM
Why would a sober person go to Gypsy's? Especially when lots of other restaurants are open?
2/7/2010 12:44:11 AM
I will look upon your treasures gypsy. this is understood?

When Raleigh becomes a real city, then we will get a real Greek diner.Or will a real Greek diner make us a real city? The causation is confusing me.
2/7/2010 2:23:23 AM
First we need to import some Greeks.
2/7/2010 3:14:20 AM
How about Raleigh's a real city without Greek diners?
2/7/2010 3:45:45 AM
set em up
