My Husband, our two children and I were out shopping all Thursday evening, during the holiday season. We were on Rochester Rd. tired and hungry when I remembered a restaurant I had been to a long time ago called the "Alabi". We arrived in the parking lot at 9:35 pm. My Husband went to the door to see the hours and noticed it closed at 10:00. He went inside to see if they would seat us. "Oh Yes" the woman at the door said, "Please come in." My husband then told her that we did not wish to be rushed. She told him they had a "Full dining area" and as long as we ordered by ten they would not rush us. By the time we got in and seated it was approximately 9:50. We ordered before 10:00, but they were not true to their word!! Exactly the opposite. They actually brought the bill as soon as they delivered the food. As if that were not bad enough, the waiter had the nerve to ask for the money so the manager could cash out and in the same breath asked us if we wanted boxes for food we barely had time to touch. All this happened before 10:20 pm!! If that is not being rushed I don't know what is. We were choking the food down trying to get out of there. When we asked to speak to the manager we were told he had left! If they didn't want us there they should have said so, we could have gone elsewhere and been comfortable. We wouldn't return on a dare!!!
