Okay, so I have been coming here with my family since i can remember. MANY, MANY, MANY years. I've seen all the changes over time. It was our FAMILY restaurant. Every Christmas morning we spent there. When i was smaller, I would go with my parents and now i go with my boyfriend and his kids. One of the waitresses still asks me how my parents are.
Many months ago, while having dinner with the kids, we noticed a group of gangbangers walk in and pretty much run the place. They even went into the kitchen and made it clear to the chef, to make sure he gave them the good meat. The owners son even said "what's up" to them as if they were friends. This has always been a family restaurant to me and at that moment i knew it was time to go. The whole feeling of the place just left us uncomfortable. I gave it the benefit of the doubt because we knew the owners and everything and just brushed it off.
Over the next couple of times, we noticed we kept getting charged differently. The same meal would basically fluctuate from high to low. In conversation with a friend he said he had noticed that they would add in the tip without telling you (that's why they never give you a receipt). I still didn't believe it, I mean I can basically say I grew up there!!
Then i went again, same meal we always have with my boyfriend and kids, something that cost us $40 ended up at $60!!!! I mean that's more than Chilis!!!! and this is a hole in the wall place!!! So I was clearly upset and vowed to NEVER go there again!!!!
I went again last night, i love the place the food is DECENT, NOT SPECTACULAR, but convenient, fast, and good, sio i gave it another shot. Well i had the usual which would cost about $20 for just me and the boyfriend, well it ended up being $30 and i physically seen him put in $14.99 for my plate which in the menu was only $11.99. So i got charged basically for the steak plate instead of what i ordered because i noticed the steak plate was $14.99. so what if i did order the steak plate!?!?! Was he going to charge $19.99??!?!
Granted, yes, it does say in the menu that prices are subject to change without notice, but damnnnn!!! are they catering it to how much $ they want today! At that the son drives a nice custom truck!!! Must be what i paid for, so can i drive it too?? So yes it is good food, but make sure BEFORE you order if that is what they plan on charging you and ALWAYS ask for a receipt!!!! Make them make you one!!
So, as for me and my family, i'm OFFICIALLY DONE, with this place!!!!! They just PERMANENTLY LOST a good maybe 15-20 customers!!
