Adam Sandler and the IHOP worker who recently went viral on TikTok for unknowingly turning him away from a New York City location have reunited.
The hostess, Dayanna Rodas, shared a follow-up TikTok on Tuesday that featured a series of photos of her with Sandler and the rest of the IHOP crew.
"Couldn't have been more excited!! Thank you Adam Sandler!" Rodas captioned the video, which was soundtracked with "Best Day of My Life" by the American Authors.

Sandler visited the restaurant during its new charity event promotion, Milkshake Monday, which was inspired by the actor's initial reaction to Rodas's viral TikTok of him leaving the restaurant.
"For the record, I only left the IHOP because the nice woman told me the all-you-can-eat deal didn't apply to the milkshakes," Sandler tweeted after the video of him leaving the store went viral.
Shortly after, the restaurant announced the all-you-can-drink milkshake promotion.

IHOP promised to donate $1 from every milkshake purchased on the day, up to $50,000, to the nonprofit Comedy Gives Back, which raises funds to support struggling comedians. Last year, Sandler headlined the charity's virtual fundraising event to support out-of-work comedians during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In the original TikTok video, Sandler can be seen entering IHOP with a young girl who appears to be his daughter. They are both wearing masks, and they approach the hostess, who informs them that the wait for a table is 30 minutes. The man and his daughter promptly exit.
