I feel like review bombing isn’t the best way to handle this. Why not wait til OP’s friend tries another course of action? I mean, they haven’t asked for money yet (not that I expect it to be paid). Solid chance ownership wasn’t even aware the EC did this. Reviews can really fuck with a place - is it worth potentially ruining a local business over this?

That’s my strangers friend we’re talking about!

They charge $14 for celery soup. They’ll be ight. We shall wait for the verdict of the situation being properly handled if not…bombs away.

But also you don’t think My strangers friend will get paid. You also don’t think ownership knows about this shitty act.

What would be a good course of action for stranger friend to take and a good response from establishment?

I would create an invoice using whatever the fmv is of the services rendered and reach out to management/owners. If that doesn’t work after a few tries, reach out to the dept of labor. I just think it’s the chef that should have to suffer, not the entire restaurant.

Edit: just noticed Sally O’s is hiring a sous. OP’s friend should apply. Seems like a great place to work plus they’re on their way to making their own little empire - aka great opportunity for advancement.
