A Kingston-based restaurant is dismissing claims of racism following a dress code incident involving a local content creator.

Describing the information online as inaccurate, it said: “Steakhouse on the Veranda is deeply disappointed that a dress code incident on 15 October 2025 has been misrepresented online as racism.”

In a video that has since gone viral on social media, creator CindiMarvelous alleged that she was refused entry to Steakhouse on the Veranda, located at Devon House, because she was wearing shorts while others, who were similarly dressed, were allowed to enter.
