It sounds like you may have a claim pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 1981, which is an older Civil Rights statute prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race. Similar claims have been brought against other restaurant chains over the years. You should discuss this with a civil rights lawyer in your area if you have questions regarding whether the claim should be pursued and the details regarding what would be involved.
