He’s played Spock. He’s played NOS4A2. Now Zachary Quinto is receiving rave reviews for his latest role: “an entitled child.”
Proving that celebrities have learned nothing from all those non-apologies James Corden delivered during 2022's Balthazargate, the Canadian restaurant Manita has accused Quinto of taking out his “frustrations” with Manita’s reservation system on the restaurant’s staff. In an Instagram post, the restaurant claimed Quinto “yelled at our staff like an entitled child after he didn’t reply to two texts to inform his table was ready.” Of course, we could blame this on the switchover from puck-sized pagers to text messages, which has wreaked untold havoc upon the dining world, but we digress. It’s still up to the patron to treat staff respectfully, no matter their Starfleet ranking. But apparently, Quinto had more problems with Manita. He “refused to believe the empty tables in the dining room weren’t available for him despite being politely informed they were spoken for.” Quinto, the restaurant said, “made our host cry and the rest of our brunch diners uncomfortable.”
