Share some restaurant host horror stories.
There was a case where a restaurant host mixed up the reservations and ended up seating two different parties at the same table. One party had been waiting for a special anniversary dinner. It led to a huge argument between the two parties and the restaurant staff had a hard time sorting it out. The host was completely flustered and didn't handle the situation well at all. There was shouting, and it really ruined the evening for everyone involved.
One horror story is when a restaurant host was extremely rude to a family with small children. The host refused to seat them near an exit as they requested for easy access with a stroller. Instead, the host made snide remarks about how they should have planned better. It made the family's dining experience start off on a very bad note.
I heard about a restaurant host who had a personal grudge against a particular customer. The customer had given a negative review a long time ago. So when this customer came in again, the host seated them in a corner near the kitchen where it was noisy and smelled like grease. The customer complained, but the host just shrugged and said it was the only table available, which was clearly a lie. This made the customer vow never to come back to that restaurant.

His attitude just made the whole dining experience unpleasant.
