DonÂ’t Patronize Parkhill's Waterfront Grill

If they consider this acceptable, it is clear that they are not the “family restaurant” they claim to be – unless anti-Semitism is one of your family values.

Two diners on a date at a fancy Jersey Shore restaurant were furious when they saw the check — which listed their table as that of the "Jew Couple."

Brooklynite Elliot Stein says he was shocked that a waitress at the Parkhill's Waterfront Grill in Allenhurst [New Jersey] printed the slur instead of a table number on his $36.75 bill.

As if that weren't bad enough, the 23-year-old shoe buyer told The Post, the offensive phrase then turned up on his credit-card statement two weeks later.

The response of restaurant management?

Stein said he took the offensive bill and showed it to Jewish friends seated nearby who said they could not believe it.

When the group started questioning the manager, Stein said she simply told them there was nothing derogatory about the statement.

Stein said he was then asked to leave for making a fuss.

The restaurant's general manager, Malia Wells, yesterday told The Post that the offending phrase was a matter of "poor judgment on the part of a bartender."
The server, shown as Karina on Stein's bill, has since "moved on," Wells said. She would not say whether Karina was fired.

"We are a family restaurant, and we welcome everybody," she said, adding that the words "Jew Couple" were never intended to be derogatory.

And I suppose that “Spic Couple” would be just fine, too. Not to mention “Niggers”, which your fine staff probably also uses. I know I would raise a real fuss if “Fat Couple” showed up on my bill. After all, none of it is meant to be derogatory, right Ms. Wells?

That your manager tossed out the offended couple for daring to challenge the use of a slur on the check tells me there is something much more sinister at work. How about all the decent people on the Jersey Shore making their disgust with bigotry in their midst by finding somewhere else to eat if there isnÂ’t a more sincere apology? It shouldnÂ’t take long to shut the place down if one is not forthcoming.

1 You have to be kidding. This is PC to the point of insanity. If the server had asked if any jews are in the diner, I wonder who's hands would have gone up. You have lost your damn mind! A meshugener zol men oyshraybn, un im araynshraybn. If she had intended a slur she would have used hebe, kike, or any of the other nasty terms to describe a jew. You have put this young lady on the chopping block of political correctness and cut her head off. The attorney general? Dear GOD.....since when is it a crime to call a jew a jew? I thought the USA had freedom of speech. Maybe you should see how many times jewish servers reference non jews as " that goy couple".

2 Had it been "Jewish Couple", it might have been different. But "Jew Couple" is much more of a slur.

5 ANYONE would be offended with a phrase like that on their bill, no matter what it said - ie: black, hispanic oriental, etc. It still proves a point that I always knew was in the back of many non-Jewish minds. To quote Ton Lehrer in his old song "National Brotherhood Week" - "and everbody hates the Jews. You can be sure I won't be eating there even if the dopey server is gone

7 Sorry, folks, but as much as you may like the food, you have to admit there is a problem when the offended diner complains and is thrown out of the restaurant. And tehe is a new story that would appear to indicate that the restaurant has a history of allowing insulting descriptions of diners to be placed on the ticket by the staff. I'll post on it shortly.

8 I don't understand what the big fuss is about. This world has become too politically correct. It's true the comment was in very poor taste, but it's just another example of the Jewish people making big large deals about everything. I am tired of it. You don't see Roman Catholics calling for total censorship every time the media reports on some scandal in the catholic church. Mensches need to stop shviting and relax.

9 Money talks, bullshit walks! Boycotts are the best way of punishing these idiots!!! Do not partonize this restaurant. (It's overpriced and overrated anyway.) The hostess blew these people off like they were dirt - that is management not a waitress. Any Jewish person that eats at this restaurant is guilty of self hate and doesn't understand that you have to cut this type of stuff off at the ROOT! Don't like Jews? Fine with me. But I'll be good god damned if I'll give you my money!

10 yes the comment was poor judgement but is it really worth all this bullshit? you need to get a life. she did correctly identify a jewish couple as jewish- maybe not in the most polite way however. but its not a big enough deal to have all over the news.. give me a freakin break. so to all you attention craving pathetic jerks, go back to your hometown we dont need your money here in jersey anyway. if you're that worked up then DONT patronize parkhill's. im more than positive there will be enough business without you. and maybe a friendlier and more wholesome crowd of people at that!!

11 So, stu, tell me -- if we are a bunch of no-life attention craving jerks, why are you bothering to take the time to comment here. COuld it be that you are a step or six below us? I mean after all, you ARE from New Jersey. To quote my old college buddy Luke, "I'm ready to fight when the enemy hits the Pennsylvania line -- but i refuse to die for Jersey." And just to let you know, I've yet to meet a fellow American (as opposed to a New Jerseyite) who disagrees with that sentiment.

12 Oh, and by the way, stu -- you think the slur is OK since the couple were Jewish? I suppose you think it would have been an insult if you were Gentiles. You remind me of the father of a former student -- "I don't see why he's being suspended for calling a nigger a nigger. I meanhe's a nigger, after all."

Posted by: Rhymes With Right at Mon Aug 22 17:05:58 2005 (MPl7n)

13 well Rhymes With Right guy-- i didnt say YOU personally were an attention craving jerk. the people that took this lame ass story to the press were attention craving jerks. its not news worthy. by no means WHAT-SO-EVER did i say it was "ok" i just said she was technically correct in her statement. if someone were to dubb me as "spanish boy" id say hell yeah thats what i am. if they were to say "spic" or something like that, then id be offended. if the tab said some kind of extreme slur then maybe it would be news worthy. but it didnt, so its not. and dont hate on jersey its just a place. me being from jersey does not make or break the person i am or the person anyone is. im just saying that the shore tends to get invaded every summer by assholes that cant drive and have no common decency towards other people what-so-ever. i do mean that in the most general of ways, it doesnt apply to just nj, it applies to any area that gets rediculiously disrupted by any group of assholes time and time again. if youre going to go invade someones home at least have the common decency to respect them. im sure many other people can relate to my agitation. back off buddy. yes i AM from new jersey, that makes me a bad person or something?? you can make all the personal attacks on me you want i dont give a shit and if you really think im "a step or six" below you well then thats just a damn shame isnt it. life goes on.

Posted by: stu at Mon Aug 22 18:13:41 2005 (KZhVk)

14 Stu, When you indicate that "you" pathetic attention craving jerks" should go home and without you there whould be a friendlier and more "wholesome" crowd of people I am not certain who you are referring to. I have an idea but I can not believe you are that stupid. If you don't like Jews make certain you don't ask me or other jews for help when you show up in the ER with chest pain. Perhaps we should just concentrate on the less wholesome crowd You are more than 6 steps behind Steve

Posted by: Steve at Tue Aug 23 03:39:33 2005 (CvbCy)

15 in no way at all was i talking specifically about jewish people because youre right that would be just stupid. i dont have a problem with anyone, just assholes. youre awfully quick to jump to conclusions buddy, relax. like i said i dont have a problem with anyone who has respect. i have a problem with people who walk around like they own the world and treat other people like shit. i dont care if they are jewish catholic black white puerto rican- an asshole is an asshole to me. and if "jew" is such an offensive slur why is it okay for you to use it? i never understood that.

16 well Parkhill's has been closed and sold (to Jewish members)... what does everybody have to say about the issue now?

Posted by: gog at Wed Oct 26 20:18:10 2005 (WxJpg)

17 Jewish memebers didnt buy it, I did. So when you know what your talking, about fill everyone in okay, but it's alright keep guessing
