Woman tells Spanish-speaking Mexican restaurant employees: 'Get the f*** out of my country'

A woman dining at a Mexican restaurant told employees "get the f*** out of my country" because they were speaking Spanish.

Miranda Castillo, a hostess at Tampico Mexican Restaurant in West Virginia, saw the woman screaming at manager Sergio Budar and his brother-in-law and owner Luis Salas while they discussed restaurant renovations on Saturday.

"I've lived in California for 20 years and English is our first language so you need to speak English," the customer said to Budar on Castillo's video. "Get the f*** out of my country." Her companion, a man with a white beard, attempts to silence her.

Budar told the woman that any problem she has is "in your mind" and that he's a U.S. citizen.

"I don't have a problem with the way you look, but you're in America and you need to speak English," she answered.

"If you're going to be racist, we're going to leave," the friend said firmly. "That's racist — this man takes care of me and we're going to get out of here because you don't talk like that to him."

"I am not racist!" she yelled before being escorted out.
