    I would not recommend anyone--especially African-American business owners or anyone expecting…read moredecent customer service--to use Top Restaurant Equipment or visit their store in Temple Hills, Maryland. My experience began when I inquired about an under-counter dishwasher I saw listed on Facebook Marketplace. A representative told me the unit was available and that I could visit Monday through Friday between 9 AM and 5PM. I clarified my interest and confirmed I could view it around 11:30 AM on a weekday. The only payment option given was cash, so I went out of my way to get cash and made the drive from Fredericksburg, VA--over an hour and a half in traffic. When I arrived, I expected a professional environment, but I was greeted by a man who spoke limited English and offered zero customer service. No greeting, no smile--just a cold "What do you need?" I explained I was there to see the dishwasher, and he seemed completely unaware of my appointment. Shortly after, I received a call from the sales rep stating the unit was in overstock and couldn't be brought down because their forklifts were blocked. That was news to me--and incredibly frustrating after such a long trip. I watched as the man walked off for 15 minutes, then returned to tell me he couldn't find the unit. He claimed it wasn't available--even though I had already provided the model number. When I asked about other dishwashers, he said, "We don't have any," multiple times, which I later found out was a complete lie. When I asked for a manager, I was told his boss was in China and that he was the only person who could help. He made me feel like a nuisance and clearly wanted me to leave. I sat at the counter while he stared at me in silence. After getting no response from the Facebook Marketplace contact, I decided to look around myself. The store is a mess--completely disorganized. Equipment is stacked to the ceiling, aisles are blocked, and forklifts can't even get through. It's a safety hazard and extremely unprofessional. While walking through, I saw two used dishwashers--the same ones he said didn't exist--proving again he was not being truthful. And the biggest shock: As I walked toward the exit, there it was--the exact unit I came to see, sitting plainly on the floor, easily accessible, no obstruction at all. I called him over and pointed it out. He had no apology, no explanation, no accountability--just another excuse. He claimed they couldn't get it to my truck. When I showed him I had a trailer and explained how it could easily be loaded using the ramp, he finally agreed, after all that nonsense. When I asked about the brand-new dishwasher I had seen, hoping they might offer a deal given the experience, he showed no interest in helping or resolving the situation. Honestly, this felt more than just bad service--it felt discriminatory. As a Black man, I felt unwelcome and disrespected the entire time. It seemed like my money wasn't good enough and my presence was a burden. This was a total waste of time, money, and energy. The service is terrible, the organization is nonexistent, and the attitude toward customers--especially minority customers--is appalling. Avoid this business at all costs. Zero stars. Unprofessional. Dishonest. Disrespectful. Do not waste your time or money here.

    Awesome customer service so friendly and accommodating especially…read moreRiley and Hunter! Great selection and prices, clean and organized.

    I was very disappointed with the customer service I received during my recent visit…read more I stopped by to purchase six 20-pound bags of ice. Due to a spinal fusion and permanent lifting restrictions, I am unable to lift more than five pounds. I politely asked a lady (short, petite with dark hair who identified herself as the manager if someone could help me load the ice. Instead of showing empathy or trying to find a solution, I was told that she could tell me where the ice was but couldn't lift it for me. I explained again that I physically could not lift the bags at all. Rather than attempting to locate another employee, I was left waiting for approximately 45 minutes. What made the experience especially upsetting was the attitude. I felt dismissed and judged based solely on how I looked. Because when I asked, she actually looked me up and down. Her eyes scanned me as if to judge my ability to get my own ice. Just because someone appears healthy doesn't mean they don't have a disability or medical restriction. Disabilities are not always visible, and customer service should reflect that understanding. Ironically, an employee from the register--the same person who was there all along--eventually came over and loaded all six bags into my car without issue. Had that happened from the beginning, this entire experience could have been avoided. I shop at this location because it's convenient and carries products I need, so I'll likely continue to visit. However, I sincerely hope management takes this as an opportunity to improve customer service and provide better training on assisting customers with disabilities or medical limitations. A little kindness, empathy, and willingness to help can make all the difference.
