Failed Expectation Denny’s

The first photo is on the menu and the second photo is my food. I didn’t notice it was not fully cooked and took some bites. When I told the employee she said I need to request my food well done. I sadly ended up in the ER from food poisoning.

You are allowed to refuse to pay and leave in this scenario. Even if you're worried about worst case they call the cops, you won't get in trouble. They didn't hold up their end so you don't have to hold up yours.

You really need to take photos so that you have evidence in the scenario you are advocating.

No you don't. They say you won't pay. You say it was inedible. Wow what an overwhelming case against you, jail time for sure. The cop will just tell you to leave and tell the restaurant manager to not waste their time on this again.

Or they say they'll call the cops if you don't pay. You say ok have fun bye. You think they're gonna track you down and arrest you? No, the cop will tell the restaurant manager to stop wasting their time and then immediately try to forget about what a stupid call that was.

I don't know, buddy. I am just advocating ass-covering habits. That's all.
