(KRON) -- On Tuesday, amidst the restaurant going viral for the behavior of a disgruntled customer, Hazie's in San Francisco posted a photo of its interior on Instagram with this caption. "Come for happy hour. Stay for the Duck Carbonara. Accidentally order dessert. It happens." No mention of the elephant in the room. Despite millions of people already having viewed the video, Hazie's has elected not to directly comment on the incident over the weekend. However, the comments section did that for them -- seemingly brought to the restaurant's Instagram page upon viewing the viral video.
