An IHOP in Mesquite, Texas, has fired multiple employees for allegedly not serving a couple because of their race. According to CBSNEWS.COM, Mitchell and her boyfriend Elvis Polley say they wanted to celebrate Polley's 49th birthday the day after Christmas. They tell CBS News Texas they are still in disbelief after that birthday breakfast at their local IHOP turned into something they never expected.

"When we got to the restaurant, we were told that we were not going to be serviced because of our color," said Mitchell. "It is a shock, and your brain is not processing what you're hearing."  Another employee walked up to their table and said that their waitress wouldn't serve them because they were black. Even an IHOP manager is caught on video saying, "One of our morning servers, she's 'picky.'"  That waitress was employed for 25 years. She has been terminated, but she wasn't the only one. The manager and another waitress were also fired.

The couple says IHOP did the right thing with firing the waitress, but that the damage is already done. Read the full story by clicking here.
