Woman denied service by Spanish-speaking restaurant workers … for speaking ENGLISH!

This story was originally published by the WND News Center.

An American woman in an American city trying to purchase American food from an American restaurant has been denied service.

For speaking English.

Alexandria Montgomery kept trying, explaining, “Don’t tell me you can’t take my order because you don’t speak English.”

To no avail.

She posted her video online, and columnist Todd Starnes opined, “It seems to me that anyone who moves to America and refuses to learn our language should be deported. Without a common language we can’t have a sovereign nation nor can we order the delicious Cheesy Gordita Crunch.”

The situation developed at a Taco Bell drive-through in Hialeah, Florida.

“Nobody here speaks English? Nobody in the back speaks English? So you can’t take my order,” Montgomery said.

The workers clearly understood much of what Montgomery said, but they responded in Spanish, and shaking their heads no.

“She doesn’t want to help me because she don’t speak English. But you know the menu. You work here, so you would know what I’m talking about if I say I want number six on the menu. You understand what I’m saying? Like, you just don’t completely shut me out cuz you don’t speak English, that’s not fair,” Montgomery told them.

The corporation later apologized and offered a gift card. The situation “does not meet our customer experience expectations.”

She told a local reporter, “I understand everyone in Miami doesn’t speak English, and that’s fine, but if she was willing to work with me, I think the outcome would’ve been different.”

Social media commenters suggested ICE will be investigating, and “This is wrong on every level.”

“Devastating managerial miscalculation. Hired and scheduled too many people who don’t speak English. Oops!” said another.
