Kandi’s response
Even though Kandi did not address the preferential treatment Keith was offered in comparison to his family she did offer what people are considering a classy response.

Still folks on Twitter want her to directly address the issue of wait times.
One user said:
But she did not address the difference in the wait times. That is why he did not eat there. When her team found out who he was the wait time went from 1 hour to five minutes.
and another said:
It’s definitely a classy response. But it doesn’t address the actual issue. He highlighted a discrepancy in treatment for him vs. his family (regular patrons). Which lead him to believe that they don’t provide standard customer service to all customers regardless of status.
Others settled on the fact that celebrities will always have preferential treatment whether we want to accept that as a fact or not.
They tried to give him preferential treatment because he was a celebrity which happens frequently enough in many establishments. I don’t think there’s really anything to address there. It is what it is.
People are really acting like they don’t understand why a celebrity would be seated quickly… They would bring exposure and probably have less of a chance to come visit again! key is the service and not being rude to ALL customers.
Let’s be clear it might not be fair but I guarantee you any establishment would accommodate a “VIP” especially one who has respect & influence let’s not act like we don’t know this goes on all the time.
