Vero Social — Restaurant in New York

If I could give zero stars, I would. The bartender/owner openly allowed people to smoke cigarettes inside without saying a word. When I confronted the staff about it, a coworker jumped in to defend them, saying they were “from the UK” as if that’s an excuse to break the law here. Then they accused me of “making a scene” for pointing it out.

On top of that, I became suspicious they were doing drugs in the back after the bartender/owner handed out straws and had them go into the kitchen one by one. When they came back out, they were noticeably hyped up.

I saw the owner’s comment on another review claiming “nobody has met the owner.” I may have met the owner or I may not have, but I can say with 100% certainty they only seem interested in serving Caucasian customers, and they look down on women and people of different races. If the owner disagrees with this, reviewing the security camera footage might help clear things up.

I proceeded to say “ don’t ever do that again”. He replied he absolutely would do it again. I told him he was disgusting for talking and treating me like that after patronizing his business. His reply was “thanks”. I will never go there again. He is a...
