He intended to get seated a table, to be joined by his girlfriend after she got off of work. Viraj explained that he arrived at the restaurant just before 5:00. An older Caucasian couple entered just before him and were seated immediately. While he waited for the hostess to return, a Caucasian male who appeared to be a manager in the restaurant approached Viraj and told him there wasn't any room tonight.
