Complaint
On Friday January the 13th, I brought two of my family members to Cock of the Walk when they came in town to visit. After eating appetizers, we got our large food of plate and began to eat. After eating off the plate a couple of minutes an extremely large cockroach crawled out from the food from the bottom of the plate. After taking the food back and talking to the manager about the incident, he simply said that they got sprayed last week for bugs. If they sprayed last week, then they must have a serious issue with cockroaches because this one was not born yesterday. Also, either the food was placed on top of this cockroach on the plate or the cockroach was in the cooking food. Chances are there are many more of these in the food. Not only did we leave the restaurant without any dinner, we could have easily gotten sick considering the diseases cockroaches carry and the food we ate off the cockroach before knowing. I brought guests to this restaurant because I thought it would be a good experience, but it turned out to be the worst.
