He's a kid. He's four. You can't expect him to understand that being a "gentleman" means wearing a suit and bow tie.

Glad to see one of the higher-ups used his common sense, though.

Saw that a bit ago. Something about a dress code it seems... My question is, what the heck kind of restaurant is this that someone would decide to take a 4-year-old to that has fancy dress code. o.O Was the rest of the family dressed casually?


In ur fancy restaurant wearin' mah t-shirt, talking on my t-phone.

Parents fault for not having the kid properly dressed, but. The manager could have been more forgiving with the dress code considering it's a 4 year old kid, and apparently the manager understood the dress ode wrong, but that seems more like the restaurant is laying themselves flat since the parents went to the media which was a unnecessary idiotic move.

F that place and their dress code. Take that kid to Applebees or somewhere that you don't have to dress like you're going to a wedding or something.

Anyone place I cannot be seen in a TMNT shirt is not a place I am interested being seen in.

To be fair, I'd kick anybody out of my restaurant for wearing that shirt.

This has nothing to do with TMNT except that the kid just happened to be wearing a TMNT shirt. Just an article that is trying to create a story out of something that isn't there and some guy trying to get hits to his reaction video of a non-story.

You don't ever plan on ever going to a formal event/restaurant, hell people can wear shirts at your wedding?

The error of their ways? They did nothing wrong and are only apologizing trying to get good PR since the family went to the media. I don't want some brat in a t-shirt because some parents don't understand what a dress code is

agreed, the restaurant did nothing wrong (and this has nothing to do with TMNT is just a happy accident )

this is just a case of my kid is more special than everyone else and deserves the world to be given to him just because

they couldve scoped the place out first or just as easy gone elsewhere

That's stupid, he's only a kid. I'm glad the manager fixed things up.

Wow, that Jared sure is a great guy! & if he didn't make sure we knew at every turn of a corner, I'd be out of the loop! God forbid you make a post that doesn't self-promote.

Dress code is dress code. If some moron can't abide by that & dress their kid accordingly too, that's their fault.

My 2 year old has that same set.....but I digress.

Dress code aside, you typically wouldn't take a young kid to a restaurant where one of the appetizers costs as much as $14. Seems like another case of adults not thinking and then raising a stink when called out on their idiocy. I mean, the place doesn't even have a references to kids in the menu (a separate, specialized, menu or some sort of reduced price for a smaller portion)...they aren't expected here.

What a weird place. It's like they're trolling the guys. I think, just to bug him, I'd love to come in from messing around out in the garden for an hour and like "hey, lets go out to dinner... lets go to this place. Oh me? Nah, I don't need to change, but you'll need to go put on a dress shirt and clean slacks."

If I were the father of that kid I would have punched the manager in his face and then stormed out in a rage of fury.
