A family who was told to leave Captain Steve’s Family Seafood Restaurant without being served isn’t buying the restaurant’s account of what happened. The restaurant isn’t buying the family’s claim that racism had something to do with it.

Both the family members of a dining party and the restaurant agree that on June 1 the hostess was told 16 diners would be there, then the number rose to 18. Both agree restaurant staff told the party they couldn‘t be seated until everyone was there, per policy as noted on the large sign above the host counter.

The family, who are African-American, say staff members were rude after setting up for 18 guests and the number of diners went back to 16. Family members say it was the restaurant’s unwillingness to seat them that led to the commotion, eventually resulting in owner Steve Mantekas asking the party to leave.

“We’re absolutely mad because we were treated wrongly,” said diner Sylvia Blair, whose husband Carl was there to celebrate his 72nd birthday.
