Cello's Farmhouse Italian in New Hampshire Gets Surprise Gift

The restaurant revealed in the Facebook post that the mystery man bought $4,000 in gift cards and then proceeded to tip the entire staff as well as pick up the checks for people's dinners.

Can you imagine sitting down to dinner, eating a delicious meal, and then when you ask for the bill, are told that it's been taken care of?

How incredible. I would be left speechless.

It's one thing to pay for someone's coffee or something small. It's certainly another thing to pick up someone else's tab for a meal. But to take things to an even higher level and use your money to buy multiple people's dinners as well as giving hard-working restaurant staff a nice bonus for the night?

That's above and beyond, and clearly it was appreciated by the staff and the customers.

Here are just a few of them:

"We happened to be some of the very fortunate recipients of this random act of kindness! It was my husband's birthday and we were there with our three kids! What a surprise and a blessing! We can't thank that man enough! We will be sure to pay it forward!"

"He was a very nice man, we chatted with him and he didn’t let anyone know he was paying for everyone’s tab. We had know idea and didn’t get a chance to thank him, he left before we asked for our tab. So very generous. Thank you."

"My cousin ... and I were the recipients of his generosity. It was such a great feeling when the server let us know. The food was great too as always!"

Again, what a great random act of kindness this man exhibited that night at the restaurant. It's just another solid example of a good person in New England making a difference and having a positive impact.

Because you know those people will remember that for a long time. The kindness will certainly not be forgotten.
