Greek Restaurants in Moscow

“Dear Mina, I used to love Mikey's until my interaction with your employees the other day. I placed my order with an individual with a ponytail. They looked at my necklace that had a Star of David and the words of "Bring Them Home" and rolled their eyes. I decided to ignore it, placed my order and sat down at the table. I looked behind me only to find a poster accusing Jews and Israelis of genocide. As someone with numerous Israeli friends, that poster was disgusting. My friends and I also knew people that were massacred on October 7th. As I was waiting for my refund I begin telling your employee why I was so disgusted and a story about a woman who got her breast cut off as she was being gang raped at the Nova Music Festival. I didn't even get halfway through the story when this person started smirking and laughing at me. So yeah I got a little upset with this person. Once I got my money I went right out of there and ran into a friend of mine and her family on your patio. One of your employees came out and asked my friend if I was bothering her. She told him, no we are friends. And that's when I calmly but with an irritated voice said, knock it off buddy. Yhen your employee screamed at least I don't believe in genocide baby killer! You can't possibly understand how dehumanizing that is. Not in a million years if I had a business would I ever make anyone feel that unwelcome. I have talked to multiple people in this town that have Israeli friends and family members, all of them find that poster disgusting. It's not that it's just a poster, it's the fact that somebody intentionally took the time to laminate it and post it in the middle of the dining area so everyone can see. So every Jewish person with Israeli friends or family members can feel humiliated in your restaurant. I've known Persian people my whole entire life, and not a single one of them would ever make anyone feel that uncomfortable and disgusted. I'm already working with Stand With Us Seattle and their lawyers to see what we should be doing next. You are more than welcome to contact me. I'd rather resolve this like neighbors instead of possibly taking you to court. Something I have no desire to do. Tikkun olam“

“Waited a while to get seated. Waited even longer to get our orders taken. Waited... again... to get our food. Waitress forgot our appetizer which we ended up canceling at that point out of sheer frustration. Food was cold when we were served and had definitely been cheapened since we were last there. And on top of all that our gift card was not honored with the change in ownership. This restaurant used to be my go-to when wanting to go out to eat. I will not return.“
