A shocking video shows a group of people dressed in Nazi costumes siting and eating at a Torchy’s Tacos in Fort Worth, Texas.
The viral video posted by Jessica Gregorio on TikTok captures the shocking moment when about ten people in Nazi clothing were served food at a Torchy’s Tacos in Fort Worth’s medical district on Sunday.
A man can be seen wearing a swastika armband over a tan uniform, while another was in a sweatshirt featuring an image of a skull and the slogan ‘Gott Mit Uns’—God with us—used in Nazi Germany. A swastika patch can be seen on his backpack too.
The group appeared to have just finished their food and walked comfortably through the restaurant in Nazi paraphernalia on Sunday, a day after the surprising attack by Hamas that pushed Israel’s death toll surpass 1,000.
‘I just can’t stop staring at them because I was just so angry, uncomfortable,’ said Gregorio, who shot another video to explain what happened when she was eating with her mom at the Torchy’s Tacos.

Gregorio started recording them and saying, ‘how dare you’. After she stopped recording, one of the men walked by her, saying ‘white power’.
It was the moment when she had a ‘verbal altercation’ with the group in Nazi clothing, Gregorio said. The ‘white power’ remarks were made after she told them she is a proud Jew.
The group left the store after the verbal fight. the woman said. But they returned to order more food and this time – they were denied.
‘I’m posting this because I want to spread awareness,’ she said in the video. ‘I started crying after they walked out. ‘It’s very hard to grow up Jewish,’ she said.
Gregorio said a staff at Torchy’s, who also felt uncomfortable, told her a regional manager instructed staff to serve the group and getting them out of the restaurant as quickly as possible.
‘I just felt like, silence is compliance, and I can’t sit and watch these people in public comfortably,’ Gregorio spoke with the Star Telegram after the incident.
Torchy’s Tacos posted a statement on social media Tuesday acknowledging the incident and denouncing the group.
‘Let us be clear, we do not stand for hate and do not support this group or any hate group,’ the statement reads.
‘In a difficult situation, our team acted to first ensure the safety of the other guests and our team members. When the group tried to come back, they were not allowed.’
‘We will continue working closely with local authorities to ensure the safety of our guests and team members. We are taking this matter extremely seriously.’

Gregoria said she was disappointed by how Torchy’s Tacos handled the situation, plus the fact that no one said anything to the group at the restaurant.
‘I see all these comments on TikTok with people who say, ‘Oh, if I was there I would have stood up,’ she said.
‘But, you know, there were other people in the restaurant and nobody stood up. Nobody said anything.’
The same day a group of people dressing in similar Nazi uniforms with swastikas on their shoulders, carrying red and black Nazi flags protested in front of a church in Dallas.
The group was armed with knives and mace, chanting ‘down with Israel, down with the Jews.
‘All gays should be gassed. Annihilate the gays. Annihilate the Jews,’ the protesters chanted at the Oak Lawn church, known for its primary LGBTQ+ membership.
