And the owner is an old grandpa dude who sits there nursing a glass of wine all day and chatting with customers.

That's the owner's dad, I believe. He apparently likes to chat with people he already knows and ignore people he doesn't, though. I know someone who (I wasn't there, but the story goes) spent their birthday just sobbing waiting to be seated for an hour because he bumped several friends of his in front of her reservation.

Was this person a child? I can’t imagine an actual adult sobbing over a birthday dinner reservation.

I’ve sobbed before when I’ve been hungry. Low blood sugar is real.
