“Creepy French Restaurant Owner” Hits on Guy’s Dream Girl on First Date, Lies When Confronted

A man's dream first date turned awkward very quickly after a creepy restaurant owner tried sliding into the DMs of the woman he was out with as they were waiting for a receipt.

Justin (@justinassada) posted a viral TikTok clip detailing the strange experience that left him heated, as someone was attempting to hone in on his crush right in front of his face.

Justin begins his video by stating he had one of the "weirdest" first dates ever with someone he follows on social that he has "the biggest crush on."

There's one big problem he says that's getting the way between the two of them being "soulmates" and it's that she lives in a city that's really far away. However, after seeing that she was in his area, he decided to reach out and try to get a date with her.

He asked her out to dinner, and to his joy, she responded that yes, she would love to. So he booked a spot at this French boutique restaurant, they got some drinks beforehand, and then headed over to the spot where, from the get-go, he says things were "perfect" — the restaurant wasn't missing at all.

Not only was the food fantastic, but they ended up getting the best table in the place and the vibe was good. So far, so good, and the night was just "exceptional."

Then, at the end of the meal, the owner of the restaurant came out, who Justin describes as a "bald little French man" who started asking how everything was.

Justin told him that things were astounding, but that the owner could "care less" about what Justin had to say and that his "eyes were glued" to his date. "He's kind of putting me in the bubble, I'll go f--- myself."

After the restaurant owner put the bill down, Justin put his card on the table, and that's when his date decided to slap hers down as well.

She said that while she appreciated his taking her out and being his guest, she prided herself on her independence. "It would mean a lot if you would respect me enough to split the bill," she said.

He said that after a "little bit of playful back and forth," the two of them agreed to split the bill.

The French restaurant owner then took it upon himself to poke fun at Justin for splitting the bill, not wasting the opportunity to compliment her in the process. At this point in the evening, he took Justin's card to the back of the restaurant but left hers behind.

Justin, at first, was fine with this, as he fully intended on getting dinner anyway. However, the restaurant owner came back and then took his date's card to the back and was gone for about 20 minutes.

While he was gone they got to talking about a mutual person that they know who DM'd her, and while she went through her messages on her phone, she noticed that in the time they were sitting at the table, the restaurant's account DM'd her three times.

"This short, bald, little French f--- not only shot his shot via restaurant Instagram, with my date, but slandered my f------ name too? He said, like, 'You are such a beautiful girl, I want to take you out on a date sometime and this time don't worry, I pay for the bill."

He started to curse out the restaurant owner in the TikTok video, calling him a "weasel, f----, idiot," while adding that the man "went in the back" and used her credit card to "look up her name."

Justin said that while he and his date ended up laughing about it, he was "high-key" annoyed so he decided to "say something about it."

His date said that he "should totally say something this is really weird and it might be illegal."

"Weirdly enough a waitress brings back her side of the tab, we pay it, and then we head out. We start heading out and there he is. Greeting people at the door as they leave," Justin continued.

This was Justin's chance to get back at him. He let his date leave first and the owner gave her a "creepy stare" after asking her to "come again."

"I go full press mode: yo f---face what was that stunt back there?" he says he asked the guy.

"Starts acting like he has no idea what's going on. Boom, receipts, right in his f------ stupid French face."

The owner started immediately blaming it on the cooks, stating that employees have access to the restaurant's socials. "What we're not doing is blaming it on Ratatouille right now, pal. Take some ownership for your actions," the TikToker said before stating that the restaurant owner never did.

"We ended up leaving with not only a funny story but with a lesson too and that is to stay away from restaurants where short bald French men are the owner."

Ultimately, however, he said that he "kinda respect[s] what the guy did because game is game."

Numerous users had different responses to Justin's story. Some remarked that this was simply a consequence of going out with a "baddie" while others just found themselves laughing at the French accent he rattled off while telling the tale. There were some who just couldn't believe the gall of the owner, either.

However the big question that you, the reader, might have, which is one that at least one other TikTok user pondered was: "So will there be a second date??"

According to Justin, that's definitely in the cards: "Yes and I’M PAYING," he wrote in response to the curious TikTok user.
