Reviews
A year ago…Great atmosphere. Authentic museum quality rickshaw inside. counter service Thai food. Chef is real thing, little English, unable to adapt to vegan. Zero entrees for vegetarians/vegans bc not flexible about oyster sauce/fish sauce bases. They don’t understand the distinction. No tofu here. Could eat summer rolls/sushi. When asked for vegan Pad Woonsen (w/rice noodles), was told they CAN NOT leave egg out of anything but Lo Mein (w/egg noodles). Very accommodating w/refund once discovered they misunderstood/made it wrong, and apologetic. 3 t.v.s too many for small place. Video on one was animal eating animal. Beautiful walls and better than average seating.
Let me begin by saying that the lady who served us was kind and friendly, which initially gave us a good impression. The food tasted okay, not remarkable, but fine for a casual meal. However, I was disappointed to see everything served on thin, disposable paper plates, a downgrade compared to other Thai restaurants I’ve visited.
Now, here’s where things took a serious turn.
We noticed that the prices on our receipt didn’t match what was listed on the menu. For example, the red curry combo was advertised at around $15, but the receipt showed $16.59 plus tax. I politely asked why there was a difference. The server replied that the menu prices reflected the cash price, and what we were charged was the card price. Even then, the numbers didn’t add up. The “cash total” was only about $2 less than the card total, yet overall, we were charged more or less $8 more than what the menu prices should have totaled before taxes.
That felt deceptive. I wasn’t rude, just asked for clarification. But instead of fixing the discrepancy or apologizing, a man who claimed to be her friend (not the owner) started interfering. This individual became defensive, aggressive, and confrontational. Shockingly, after we left the restaurant, he attempted to follow our car for a short distance (until I pulled over somewhere), which was both disturbing and completely unacceptable.
Key Takeaways for Other Customers:
• Double-check your receipt before paying.
• Confirm whether prices listed are for cash or card payments.
• Watch out for unexpected upcharges.
• Be cautious of aggressive behavior if you raise concerns.
This experience went far beyond a simple billing error, it involved a lack of transparency, poor conflict resolution, and alarming conduct. I genuinely hope management addresses this behavior, but until then, I cannot recommend this place.
