I had a nice brunch at The Bongo Room on Easter Sunday up until it was time to leave. My friends and I paid the bill and proceeded to finish our coffee and tea. Well the staff didn't like that we were still there at our table. They proceeded to be rude to rush us out. Rae, the extremely rude hostess, came over and asked my friend if she wanted her hot tea "to go". Who does that???! She said they had people waiting, they needed to turn the table, etc. Then she sent our server over to us to tell us the same thing. When we got up to leave, we asked to speak to the manager who was actually John, the owner. It gets worse--he was horrible to us as well!!! He said the same thing--there were people waiting, we were taking too long, he had to split up a party because we took over an hour and a half, etc. etc. Unbelievable! That must be the theme at The Bongo Room - treat your (black) patrons with NO respect. He acted as if our feedback or money didn't matter and simply dismissed us! I will NEVER go back there and I hope you consider the same! Btw, when we walked out the door, no one was waiting! There was no line whatsoever!!

This place should be a drive through and I will never eat here again. I went there with three friends this morning and we were rushed to order, and once we paid the bill it was apparent they wanted us to leave. They wanted us to leave so bad, that a waitress named Raye came and asked me if I wanted to take my cup of tea to go. When I told her no, she told me there were people waiting for our table. When we got to the door and no one was waiting, we asked of the manager. The owner John, told us we were at the table too long. He was a condescending and rude. He even told us, he didn't care if we posted to yelp and lost us as customers. I will not recommend anyone ever eating here, because the staff is rude and the food is not that great.
From the owner: In my own words, finally!
