Mediocre at best, rough with dog

I went this afternoon with my parents and my small pom-poodle cross who is very quiet and shy.
Although it was 75 degrees, no one offered my dog any water--I had to let him drink out of my glass. Worse, one of the waiters, at the end of the meal, without asking, reached down to, not exactly pet, but more manhandle my dog's very small throat-area. I know sometimes men especially pet dogs a bit too hard, but this was out of the park! My dog, who has never nipped at anyone in his life, nipped at this man, as he was obviously hurting him, trying to turn his face towards him.
I felt badly for scolding the dog, when it was the man who deserved being told off. He came back for more a little later on, but I physically turned my body away from him to protect the dog, got up and walked away. Gauche enough to just reach down and try to grab a dog without asking, but to try to force its head around? I was appalled.

Food wasn't any good, attentiveness to dogs and people lacking, and majorly lacking in basic dog-etiquette. Will not be back.
