Woman denied entry to restaurant over 'revealing' outfit, sparks online debate
The restaurant cited that the woman's clothes were "revealing from the top" and it went against their dress code.
A woman who was expecting to spend a good evening at a restaurant was denied entry. The reason? The restaurant cited that her clothes were "revealing from the top" and it went against their dress code. After the incident, the woman named Miney M Mac posted about the incident and also shared that it happened at Stab's Prime Steak and Seafood.
Miney took to Facebook to narrate the incident and also shared videos from the eatery. She wrote, "I was just 'kicked out' of Stabs Prime Steak and Seafood of Baton Rouge, a place I've patronized for years in an outfit I've worn there SEVERAL times because of their recent "dress code" policy, but people can wear jeans, regular t-shirts, their waitresses can wear mini skirts."
She further added, "My set is too revealing for the "atmosphere" they're trying to create. Never again. I'm done with Stabs. I walked into Zeas with several compliments and politely seated at a table. The craziest thing about Stab's is the hostess was just about to seat me until the 'owner' stopped her from doing so."

She also posted a video in which a restaurant staff member could be seen telling her how her clothes were revealing. However, when Miney questioned them back regarding the shorts worn by the waitresses, the staff again told her that there was a dress code and that her clothes were revealing. She also added that if Miney covered up, it would be better.
