A night out at a Dallas restaurant apparently turned into a public dispute after a manager told a group of Black diners she could no longer serve them, citing the smell of marijuana. One member of the group recorded the exchange and posted it on TikTok, where it has drawn millions of views.
The TikTok video shows creator Andrea Chantel confronting a restaurant manager at Maroma, a restaurant in Dallas. In the clip, Chantel repeatedly asks the manager why the group is being denied service, and the manager says she based her decision on smelling marijuana. Chantel and her group deny that anyone in their party had been smoking.
