I love how even the chef is nicer to pickles than everyone else.

“Pickles…please”

[Cairanmac]

Easiest response ever. "The Salmon is marinaded as part of the prep, so it's can't be done"

[senorsanchez]

It could be a solid move if he just stands in back on his phone for a minute and comes back to say no without ever actually bothering the chef.

“The chef is politely declining substitutions tonight.” Bam, it’s a done deal.

[moonkid]

"Let me go ask the chef!"
*walks into the back and stares at a wall for sixty seconds*
*comes back*
"He said no."

[HannahIrene]

"Maybe, let me just ask the kitchen."
*Stands in the alley for 15 seconds.*
"The kitchen said no."

Trys saying no to Tim and Pam
Tim: "Terryyyy, this sum b*tch told me I can't have my $44 ribeye the way I want it"

I love that he rocks stubble on every character. I don’t know why, but it totally works for me.

Now this video just makes me want a "waiters saying no" compilation with all the different characters!

In times like this, I go in the kitchen, wait 5 seconds then go back. Simply say "The food is cooked as is"

[benjaminrobinson]

Solution: say "I'll ask the kitchen." Then come back and say "I'm so sorry ma'am, chef informed me he's unable to make that modification." Problem solved.

I love that Bridgette is taking notes…lol!

Just remember that when you’re in a group at dinner and someone modified their order, don’t expect your orders to come out as fast.

Working in a restaurant is like the opening night of a show everyday.

When i saw Aaron serving, I breathed in sharply and sighed.

It's always him, man!

Pickles is a hero to many, and a spiritual mirror to all.

[AM-uhox]

Pickles 💯 backing the chef like he would say no to a customer. I feel like Pickles couldn’t even do that and he would even offer some suggestions 😂

My favorite Seattle restaurant has "substitutions politely declined." at the bottom of their menu.

[BigRiceEnergy]

Oof, imagine the dressing down Aaron got from Joey lol

[MsJENelson]

Each individual character is so perfectly played down to the tiniest detail
- masterful acting !!
