A bartender humiliated a Jewish man who was on a first date, by refusing to serve him drinks and hurling anti-Semitic slurs at him, a new lawsuit claims.

A conservative Jewish journalist says he was harassed and humiliated by a bartender at a Brooklyn bar — who refused to serve him and heckled him out of the establishment over his Zionist views, according to a new lawsuit.

Dan, 31, of Staten Island, called Eliahu a “Zionist Fascist” and “falsely” claimed that Eliahu “harasses abortion patients” and “doxes people’s” through his reporting –- all in front of the date and the other bar patrons, the lawsuit alleges. Elad Eliahu is suing Swell Dive and bartender Alvin Dan claiming he was refused service because he’s Jewish.After, Dan recorded more videos of himself which he posted on his Instagram account saying that Eliahu’s date “had no idea that she was about to go home with a f–king proud Zionist,” the suit alleges.Eliahu, of Long Island, said he was “angry” and “distraught” during the verbal attack — but he tried to focus on staying calm and not engaging with Dan.

Swell Dive told Eliahu on Instagram that his problem is “with the bartender not the bar” when he reached out.Sanford Rubenstein, one of the lawyers representing Eliahu, told The Post, “As an employer, they are certainly liable for the action of their employee.”
