Yep. 86 is used across the restaurant. You can 86 meatballs, 86 vodka, or 86 a douchebag at the bar. In most cases it just means we are out of something due to demand or the prep crew slacking off. In the case of customers, it means they are removed from the premises. I can envision a world where there could be a temporary 86, and we’d allow the customer to come back, but it’s never happened. If we have to kick you out, we REALLY don’t like you. If the kitchen has to stop cooking in the middle of service to threaten you, then be thankful if you walk out with all your bits attached.
