I was really excited about this place, looking for a good breakfast burrito on the way outta town. Brunch is my JAM. And I bookmarked BabyStacks when I saw their awesome menu. I promptly removed that bookmark after my experience.
There were a few "eh..." qualities, but forgivable for a small business doing God's work of artisan brunch-making. What wasn't forgivable was unapologetically charging nearly twice as much as their online menu price upon arriving to pick up my phone-in order. Just a "Sorry, Charlie " response to my complaint.
Calling in from the road, and a little rushed, I made the order for three breakfast burritos. They were $8.95, not far off the going rate. I can't remember what all the menu listed in it, but it seemed more interesting than the essentially egg burrito I received. Without the added avocado, It had 4 under-seasoned eggs and adequate cheese, but otherwise just a shy sprinkling of green peppers.
One could've chosen one of three meats as well, but there were no non-meat options nor substitutes. I opted to add avocado instead of meat, for which they had to upcharge ($2.95?).
When she asked about sides for the $8.95 (without the avocado) burrito was, I said I was just looking for a handheld burrito cuz we were on the road. She said "oh, without sides then?" I confirmed without much more thought.
Turns out they were platter-style dishes, and also $14.95 each (without avocado). To be frank, I would have passed on this place the same as a dozen others that morning, had I known they were that much. IMO, No handheld road burrito is worth that much. So when she charged me $53 at the register, it was twice what I expected to pay. And, as intimated in the beginning, they seemed fine with willfully bait-and-switching customers in such a way, saying "yeah, the owner did increase a lot of prices in the past year. Those prices are out of date ..." And she knowingly left the outdated prices online too, apparently, because the point had been raised with them before.
They didn't offer to pay for our coffees ( $4 each), give us a complimentary cookie, or anything else meaningful - just the business email address to send futile complaints to. Insult to injury, on top of charging 95% more than advertised, charging extra for avocado when i waived off meat AND sides.
To summarize: Prices were probably fine for a dine-in experience with an up to date menu. Breakfast burrito is meh for this non meat-eater but maybe better with meat. I would've loved to try their cakes too, but my bad for paying in the sides. Willful false advertising and unrepentant response is not acceptable though, so I won't be returning when there's a dozen other great brunch places in Vegas.
