Washington (CNN) White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said she was kicked out of a Virginia restaurant by its owner because she works for President Donald Trump.

"Last night I was told by the owner of Red Hen in Lexington, VA to leave because I work for @POTUS and I politely left," Sanders posted on Twitter Saturday.

"Her actions say far more about her than about me," Sanders said. "I always do my best to treat people, including those I disagree with, respectfully and will continue to do so."

When reached for comment by CNN, Sanders referred to the tweet she posted.

The owner Stephanie Wilkinson told The Washington Post in an interview Saturday that she "would have done the same thing again."
