Nonetheless, soon after the sign went up, the restaurant became the talk of the town.
Even though several diners felt that the policy served them well, for some it sent an unfriendly message.
The anti-children banner sent a very explicit message. You may notice a similar sign pop up at your favorite restaurant, if you have children.

According to the sign near the front door, the restaurant banned loud behavior. The reason being, the tiny interior of the restaurant.
Some people might call it cozy and romantic. But, the tiny, square footage of the eatery required table to be placed very close together. Moreover, the placement of the tables made it difficult for the wait staff to safely maneuver around the restaurant’s tight spaces. Therefore, to prevent their employees and guests from falling, the restaurant put a ban on strollers and boosters.
Tourist Teresa Colombani thinks the policy is absolutely ridiculous,
“I think kids need to know how to behave in restaurants, and if you, don’t take them to them, they don’t know how to behave and they shouldn’t be kept hidden away, so I think it’s ridiculous. Kids should be allowed in restaurants.”
“Usually they cater, at least have a high chair for the child, but it seemed like they didn’t want any child. They said the child can’t make any noises so they turned us away.”
Adults who prefer a quiet dining experience happily flock to the restaurant’s establishment. Chris, the owner of the restaurant says that there was a spike in the number of guests after the ban went into effect.
