James Corden was briefly barred from Balthazar restaurant, after the manager called him the “most abusive customer” on Instagram.
James Corden has been put on blast by restaurateur, Keith McNally, for being “the most abusive customer” that the popular New York restaurant, Balthazar has hosted since opening their doors 25 years ago.
Taking to Instagram just yesterday (October 18), McNally posted two unsettling reports, detailing Corden’s abusive behaviour toward Balthazar employees, adding that one particular server was “very shaken” following the encounter.
He continued, “James Corden is a Hugely gifted comedian, but a tiny Cretin of a man. And the most abusive customer to my Balthazar servers since the restaurant opened 25 years ago. I don’t often 86 a customer, to today I 86’d Corden.”
After getting exposed for his antics at Balthazar, James Corden reportedly called the restauranteur and issued an apology. As posted by McNally to Instagram later in the evening, “James Corden just called me and apologized profusely. Having fucked up myself more than most people, I strongly believe in second chances.”
