James Corden was accused of being an 'abusive customer' at a restaurant in 2022

The Quinto allegations called to mind a similar situation in 2022 when restaurateur Keith McNally accused late-night host James Corden of bad behavior at Balthazar, a restaurant in New York.

"James Corden is a Hugely gifted comedian, but a tiny Cretin of a man," McNally said on Instagram, declaring the comedian was banned from the establishment. "And the most abusive customer to my Balthazar servers since the restaurant opened 25 years ago."

Corden later said on "The Late Late Show" that he "made a sarcastic, rude comment" at the restaurant after his wife was given food that she is allergic to multiple times.

"It is a comment I deeply regret," Corden said. "I understand the difficulties of being a server. I worked shifts at restaurants for years. I have such respect, and I value anyone, that does such a job."
