Zachary Quinto, the acclaimed actor best known for his role as Spock in the Star Trek franchise, has been banned from the popular Toronto restaurant, Manita, after an alleged outburst directed at the staff.

According to an Instagram post by the restaurant, Quinto “yelled at our staff like an entitled child” after not receiving a timely text message informing him that his table was ready.

The post stated that Quinto “refused to believe the empty tables in the dining room weren’t available for him despite being politely informed they were spoken for”.

The incident reportedly caused the restaurant’s host to break down in tears, and made other diners “uncomfortable”.

In a strongly worded message, Manita declared, “Mr. Quinto, take your bad vibes somewhere else, we have many lovely celebrities join us at Manita but you are NOT one of them.”

The incident occurred during Quinto’s visit to Toronto to celebrate his 47th birthday on June 2nd.

The actor is also gearing up for the debut of his upcoming medical drama “Brilliant Minds” on NBC.

Representatives for Quinto have not yet responded to requests for comment. Manita, described as a “Mediterranean-ish bistro” on its website, has gained a reputation for its welcoming atmosphere and popular brunch menu.
