Shoney's — Restaurant in Charleston

Ok, i know this Restaurant has been around for a "very" long time, but Being in this specific store.

There are two managers one is a woman named Trish, and the other is Alexis. It's pretty sad and very unprofessional for either of these two women to use their position in the business, to extort one of their employees personal business to the other employees in the store.

Not only do they share ones personal business with the rest of the employment base of the store which I believe is illegal anyways.

(They had just "Released" a waitress of her job. Because she is going through a very tough situation in her personal life.)

Claiming that the things in her personal life was causing too much drama, creating problems in the store, and disrupting business.

"Keep in mind not a soul knew about these problems, until she had no choice than to reveal those problems to management to make a very important phone call."

But how is it that the things in this girls personal life " that no one knows about other than her and now management at this point". Can create problems for a store that runs whether or not this girl is there.

How is it right that "Trish or Alexis" that created all of these problems for this girl. Take the girls job away and make the excuse that her personal life was stopping this store from making money. Or keeping customers from entering the building and spending their money?

It's morally wrong for them to be treating anyone let alone this poor girl like this in any way shape or form.

So I personally urge people to choose another location to have a meal, or spend any amount of time or money here, or if anyone personally seeks employment from them. To go and look elsewhere.

If Trish and Alexis feel it's ok to wrongfully treat their employees this way. Who's to say that these to females don't spit people's food or worse.

Something needs to be done about these two power hungry females, because it's just flat out wrong for these things to happen or let alone be ok in any way.

I feel these two Managers need to be Replaced Immediately! Because they alone are giving the Shoneys Name, Store, and Brand a bad...

My daughters and I traveled to Montgomery WV on Sat. May 3, 2014. While visiting with family, we decided to eat at Shoney's with them. We were leaving for Ohio, after we ate. It was about 9:30 p.m. when we arrived at Shoney's. One of my daughters has Celiac Disease. We asked the waitress about gluten in several of the foods and she said she would find out for us. She gave us a copy of the nutritional values of all the menu items. This is not a listing of gluten free products. When we explained that to her, she said "I know what gluten is", Still she couldn't find a listing in the restaurant of what products do and do not contain gluten. Not only that, when we first ordered, two of us asked if EQUAL is available before we ordered our iced tea. Well, she said yes, and we asked her for it at least four times, after she brought our tea, before she informed us that they were out of EQUAL. So, because of no one knowing what items contain gluten and what ones don't, I told her to forget it, the three of us didn't want anything, nor did we want the ice teas she had brought us. My sister and her family had placed their order while we were trying to find out what was gluten free. This is ridiculous. I have never went into a restaurant and no one knew what was gluten free. This is an illness, not a decision to not eat gluten. And, also, my other daughter is allergic to all nuts, where is the peanut and nut allergy warnings. This is sad. My daughters and I spent our money at another restaurant on our way down 77North. Very dissatisfied with Shoney's. This doesn't even...

Door greeter guy was rude. I asked where the rest of my family was seated and he was like "I don't know I think there's a party or something in the back" it was almost as if he was holding a bowl movement in he didnt budge but he just stood there...smh.lol...and so I went to find my party in the back bymyself..before I could find a seat and sit a waitress asked what I wanted to drink and said "you will probably get the bar right " jus the way she acted i felt it was a lil offensive like she was labeling me out to be someone that couldn't afford a main dish or to order from menu but I went ahead and said yes I'll take bar...I had to ask for silverware my drink was carbonated water nasty..the food looked like a first grader prepared it..they called the law on my son the workers were telling the law that he was brandishing a weapon in parking lot...lol smh...just because it was on his side...mind you i live in an open carry state...meaning its legal to carry...come to find out apparently the guy at door the greeter was upset because my son is straight and declined him..only good thing was my family ...other than that shoneys...
