Texas Roadhouse Server Says Table Started Talking About Her in Another Language—One That She Knows: ‘I Don’t Want Your Man’

Waiting on couples is part of the job for a server. When tending to these customers, there’s an unspoken rule female servers commonly use in the restaurant industry. No matter what, you have to prove that you’re a girls’ girl through and through.
For example, one Chili’s server demonstrates this in a mock skit toward a “husband” and “wife.” While she gives the wife her enthusiastic undivided attention, the husband is met with the cold shoulder. Essentially, you’re trying to quell any possible jealousy the same sex partner may feel. Sometimes, these feelings still simmer at the surface, as one Texas Roadhouse server experienced.
“If you and your boyfriend do not know how to go to a restaurant and act like a normal [expletive] couple, please don’t eat out,” Texas-based server Moyeska Gomez (@miska_mooska21) begins the video. From here, she recalls the incident to 1.2 million viewers.
What Happened To This Texas Roadhouse Server?
“So, I had this table, right? Most of the time when I get couples, I tend to talk mostly to the girl because that’s just out of respect for her,” she says. “It was two couples. I do my intro. They’re doing really good.”
Once it was time to take the drink orders, one of the two couples wanted alcohol. Because she says the couple appeared young, she requested their IDs. Since they were over 21, she attempted to crack a joke to break the ice.
“‘Oh, girl. I don’t even know how to read these. I just want to make sure you’re not a narc,’” she recalls quipping, earning a laugh from the table. Unknown to the server at the time, this was a facade.
The Tip of the Iceberg
When it was time to order, she began the rotation of orders, starting with one of the boyfriends, which the girlfriend implied her disapproval.
“The girl literally looks at me as if I [asked] him if he wanted a lap dance,” Gomez recalls, adding. “She’s all like, ‘He’s gonna want this one.’”
For the server, the woman ordering on behalf of her boyfriend wasn’t the issue. On the other hand, it was the attitude she received when checking on them.
“Literally when I tell you she goes,’” she remembers, demonstrating a side-eyeing motion, sneering. Attributing the behavior to an argument between the couple, she brushed it off and tended to another table. Immediately, the same woman ended up inflicting her wrath on another server.
“I was standing at one of my tables, and one of my friends [ended] up running out their appetizer. She runs it and I think [the woman] just said something rude,” the content creator says. “That just [expletive] me off.”
After the food was delivered, another friend asked Gomez about the woman’s rude demeanor. The behavior in question? “And the girl said, ‘Uh, please?” she recalls in a snobbish tone.
All of it was simply the server’s friend requesting the boyfriend’s plate back.
The Avalanche of Unruly Behavior Continues
“Mind you, she’s been passive-aggressive the entire time. You know that kind of vibe that someone has where they’re like,” she says, mimicking a tight lip, eyes looking up and down motion. “That was literally what she was giving.”
Although Gomez believed the woman’s attitude stemmed from jealousy, she made it abundantly clear that stealing a customer’s man is never her intention.
“I’m sorry, but no one wants your man. I’m trying to give you service,” she says. “That’s literally all I’m doing.” Well, the carousel of rudeness persisted.
“Each time, they just [look] as [expletive] every time I go up to their table,” she says. “I never thought me genuinely checking up on you just to make sure you don’t need anything was a bad thing.”
Because the group was her last table, the server decided to start bussing, collecting plates from the table and even dropping off their refills.
“I’m getting the plates, and [she] did not move an inch,” she says. “When I was getting the plates, the [expletive] tried to [expletive] throw the plates at me.”
Reaching her wits’ end, Gomez did seek a subtle form of revenge. “She ended up passing me a basket. She put it on top of the plates I was gonna take,” she remembers. “I looked at her, got the basket and I just put it right back where she put it. I got the plates and left.”
The Cherry on Top
“I came back and was cleaning the table. We were already closing by this time, and I don’t know if they thought I didn’t know Spanish,” she says. The kicker? “[I’m bilingual],” she says in Spanish.
As the group was exiting the building, that same woman would insult her behind her back in that language, much to Gomez’s disbelief.
“I’ve been nice this whole time. A lot of the time, I don’t really care if you’re being rude to me,” she says. “But what you’re not gonna do is be rude to my friends.”
Moral of the story? “Please don’t be rude to service workers. We don’t want your man. I promise you, we don’t. We’re just trying to do our job,” she says.
The Texas Roadhouse Server Experience Resonates
Typically, servers provide excellent customer service through kindness and attentiveness in order to earn tips. After all, they’re trying to make a living like everyone else. With that being said, servers and even customers in the comments section understood Gomez’s frustration.
“I always look at the girl bc I’ve seen those videos where the girl freaks out,” one viewer commented.
“I actually hate when girls do this. It enrages me like they’re mad at me for doing my job,” a second echoed.
“[Omg] I always get so awkward taking couples orders bc of this,” a third agreed.
“I feel like my man should be able to speak for himself.. idk we’re both grown asf,” a fourth remarked.
“I’m married but I think it’s weird to order for my husband and he’s right there like he a grown [expletive] man, he can do it lmaoo,” a fifth concurred.
