Pizza place maybe hates gays in my neighborhood

I was reading yelp looking for a pizza to order and I came upon this Yelp review. I know like bartenders hating on gay dudes isn't the most pressing issue in the world but I kind of don't want to order from them anymore after reading this.
What do you guys think.
(not my review btw)
This weekend, two friends and I ordered a pizza from Radius for pick-up at around 10 pm. We get there and go right to the bar to get it, and the bartender, Matt, says something along the lines of "Oh yeah - one special for pick-up", as apparently there was a promotion for it that night.
My friend says, "Oh I didn't know it was a special tonight", in a totally normal, conversational way.
Matt's response to my friend was "yeah you should feel special... you homosexuals don't have any grey in your beards like I do!", seemingly referring to the fact that my friends and I, and Matt, all have beards.
To unpack this a little bit: This was literally, at most, 15 seconds after we walked in the door. We are three guys in our early 30's who, if anything, are fairly nondescript, not that it matters.
We stood there shell-shocked, clearly very confused and not thrilled, and my friend standing behind me asks "what did you just say?" and Matt basically repeats the same thing.
The same friend, obviously bothered, then asks him, "Are you gay?", to which Matt sort of mumbles a noncommittal long-winded response of "no".
As my credit card is going through and we're waiting to leave, Matt then asks us where we are coming from, and what we are going to do for the rest of the night, to which none of us really respond, as we're all visibly upset. As we are leaving my friends asks for his name, which he says is Matt, and then Matt asks for my friend's name in return.
