Basketball legend Dominique Wilkins recently accused Atlanta restaurant Le Bilboquet of denying him service simply because of the color of his skin. Even though the restaurant staff claimed they were only “enforcing the dress code,” Wilkins walked away feeling mistreated.
“In my many years in the world, I’ve eaten at some of the greatest restaurants in the world,” he wrote. “but never have I felt prejudice or been turned away because of the color of my skin, until today in #atlanta in @LeBilboquetAtl #turnedawaybecauseimblack.”
Upon seeing this, proud Atlanta native Killer Mike rushed to Wilkins’ defense and called on Le Bilboquet to make it right.
“@lebilboquetatlanta ya’ll better make this lame shit right,” he wrote in an Instagram post. “How ya’ll mistreat “NIQUE” @dominiquewilkins21! Ya’ll lame AF for that shawty! #ThatAintAtlantaALL #RacismIsLame #SuperWeak #ShutemDown.”
Following Dominique Wilkins’ tweet, Le Bilboquet issued a statement on their social media accounts and denied their treatment of Wilkins had anything to do with race.
“We, at Le Bilboquet, do our best to accommodate all of our guests,” the statement read. “However, we have received consistent complaints from our patrons regarding other guest’s wardrobe choices.

“As a result, to protect our restaurant’s culture, we installed a minimum standard in our ‘business casual’ attire dress code which includes jeans and sneakers but prohibits baseball caps and athletic clothing including sweat pants and tops.”
Killer Mike needs to retire and shut the hell up.
You need to retire those sausage sucking lips… but that’s not gonna happen tho…
I only suck your mamas strap on sausage, cause your mama so fat, the last time someone seen her pussy and hit, was the same time as Tupac got killed 1996.
AYYYYYYOOOOO!!!!! PAUSE!!!!!!!!
Follow the dress code or hit up another spot to eat, pretty simple.
In Atlanta? Make an example out of them and burn that shit down! Expeditiously!
Most white people and establishments don’t want black people around them. It seems like most of us can’t comprehend that
Where do you hear that from? Other Race Baiters. Sorry but white people don’t give a dam who is sitting next to them at a restaurant, move theater, or stop light for that matter, we like most other races have better things to do besides whine.If you can’t dress the way the restaurant says you need to go to McDonalds or Burger King.
Lol, white people don’t raise their families around black people.
Rich black people don’t even raise their children around black people. Surely it’s not the skyrocketing black on black crime rate that sees innocent children killed everyday.
Good point
The restaurant itself said it was getting complaints from guests about the attire of other guests. Now be fair, which race is most likely to have made those complaints?
That’s why the government has to for RG them to Integrate eating establishments right?
What most of you can’t comprehend, is that everywhere you go in life there are rules. This restaurant has a dress code that DW apparently didn’t comply with. Then he goes on twitter and cries racism. The dress code applies to everyone. He doesn’t get a pass just because he’s black. Grow up and take some responsibility for yourselves and stop crying racism every time you don’t get your way.
Yo mama so dumb she thought hamburger helper came with a freind
?? stfu you fuck boy. go call ur daddy thats a cop to handle it
Buncha paranoid delusional mutherfuckers and hallmonitors equals what exactly? They both look stupid
next time i dont get world class service, im claiming racism. awww they didnt give you special treatment? they must be racist. they have a dress code. DEAL WITH IT. who cares you can dunk a sphere 35 years ago? yall wanna be equal but not follow the simpleist of rules.
Jesus. I wish these guys could live a day with another skin colour and they’ll find the respect to be the exact same. Your skin colour has absolutely nothing to do with it. Despite the propaganda politicians feed us, most black, white, Asians etc are good people much like Charles Barkley said.
Lmfaoo
Are you racist? If not, why do you expect all other races to be? Because the tv told you so? Talk about a brainwashing
History and current events have told us otherwise.
LOL. What history and which current events? The fact that black people have it better off in the US than any other country on earth (salary, life expectancy, safety). Percentage wise and overall number wise, white people are killed more by cops than blacks. Now percentage wise blacks are killed WAY more by other blacks than whites are by anyone else. That’s what “history” has told us. LOL. How many black presidents have their been outside of the continent of Africa buddy? Other than Obama? How come black people from my country come out here and say they are treated better than back home, make more money and have a better life. No of them say they feel any racism at all. They don’t wear sweats to a fancy restaurant though, or resist arrest, or do anything to get arrested. Strange. The country is Brazil BTW. Our people know exactly what defunding the police leads to. We also see all of your bullshit entitlement and laugh.
Great. All immigrants come to the US and do better, not just the black ones. So you’re example holds no merit.
Calling blacks in the US entitled when we’ve never had free land or free labor. Hilarious.
I bet a white liberal or liberals owns that restaurant
another buckhead establishment turning away people of color for dress code? welcome to atlanta….
Yeah… only they turned me and my boy away two weeks ago. I had a kangol on and he was wearing sweats. We’re white. I could have took my Kangol off. My boy wouldn’t have been allowed to eat in his underwear.
fair point…my white brothers that don’t dress like frat boys recieve the same scrutiny.
Dominique makes a baseless claim and mike acts like its gospel. Trying to force you into this narrative that is clearly an immature, emotionally remedial response to being denied entry because of attire. Not falling for that okey doke. Was Dominique in compliance with the dress code? Yes or no? End of story. All that “he can do what he wants cause he’s nique” stuff is audacious. This dude was a star how long ago? And a fine dining restaurant is supposed to just give him carte blanche to do as he pleases in front of all of their other guests? Give me a break. Weak, pathetic attempt at race baiting by dominique and a sleezy attempt by mike to piggy back off of it.
Allegedly, Dom was told there were no available seats as the place was nearly empty…then the guy looked him up and down and said that his outfit didn’t fit dress code….if that’s what really happened, the business fucked up (they have since apologized). Any respectable business/bouncer would tell the man to change the pants or shoes and come back..that obviously didn’t happen.
Some of you white people think inmate chauvin is the only racist man alive…
Everything you wrote was stupid. Ridiculously written. Racist!!!!!! Racist!!!! Racist!!!! See doesn’t matter how angry you get or even if you attempt to respond to my statement you will forever be a RACIST!!!!! I promise you I will ignore your post because you are a RACIST!!!!
Yeah, maybe don’t dress like your going to the gym and expect service. If they have a dress code, deal with it. Have a white man go there wearing what you were and see if he is served. Then cry racism. Killer Cholesterol Mike is the biggest moron hypocrite alive. He might inch out T.I.. both of these idiots are like “the system is racist, a black man can’t get ahead. I’m worth tens of millions, own several businesses, drive several 100K plus cars and have 50K plus watches on. Not fair!” Cry baby ass idiots. T.I. Has the whole brigade focusing on him and his fugly bitch drugging up and fucking people. They’ll turn on “blood type bolognese” Killer Mike next. Dude looks like Precious.
You know killer mike doesnt say that black people cant get ahead. He actually is consistently trying to educate people on how to rise above racism, but he does call things out like he sees it and most of the time, he not wrong. He was the only black man on a panel who agreed with candace owens on some points while pointing out the flaws in her rhetoric. Definitely someone where his opinions hold weight.
Another guy pulling the race card. What else is new?
Killer Mike needs to call himself out for mistreating the buffet time after time.
White people making comments about race below and saying racism don’t exist.
A guy with the name whitePPLR_Nasty schooling us on race relations
Yeah you can’t expect black folks to follow the rules like everybody else. It’s “racist”.
Says the obviously dim witted racist. Get an original idea you simp. Then come back for some productive dialogue
there are people of colour and the lgbtq+ communities don’t you reckon they experience discrimination too? when it comes to a black man being gay you will be crucified. i don’t think this diner is racist someone just wants to grab a headline.
Ok cool, but how come every time black folks try to have discussion about an issue the lgbtq people come along on some ” Yeah, but what about us?” You have your own movements stop trying to co-opt ours.
you know one thing is true is that black people are the most homophobic.
Can this racist piece of black shit even see his own dick? Obviously the “white devil” isn’t oppressing this guy too much since he’s still able to afford eating the entire Mickey D’s menu three times a fuckin day. Fuck outta here and grow up, take responsibility of your own ethnic interest group’s shortcomings and stop blamin “dem ray ciss wypipo” for every thang.
Says the Goofy ass “rasis whie pursin”. Why you mad?Not enough attention from your genetically recessive, inbred family. Or are you another one of those Russian agitators scouring the internet for an opportunity to sow discord amongst blacks and whites of behalf in your daddy Vladimir? Either way, your life is obviously quiet pathetic.
Stop caring so much … clown
This dude showed up at a fancy restaurant dressed in sweatpants and a jersey, smelling like Spud Webb’s asscrack. Fuck outta here!!!!
Yup and accomplished than you, yo pappy, and yo dusty ass pappys pappy combined, kick rock u loser
You sound so insensitive. Stop saying shit just to say shit!!! This guy is over 7 feet tall. Any Moran at that restaurant should have know that he was a ball player, and just let him in. DAH!!!!
You know what’s worst then a racist establishment a broke internet troll that has nothing else to do but hide behind a keyboard and throw out such hateful remarks grow up Bum
He’s the real racist. Facts.
Imagine giving a fuck about what a dude named Ernie has to say about literally anything? Guy… your name is ERNIE.. Black people can’t be racist, as they don’t possess the tools or power to institutionalize racial oppression you fucking pathetic, uncultured, untraveled, uneducated, clown.
I bet you listen to earnie johnson doh
Black people don’t qualify to called racist.
…And your name is Ernie.
