A few months later, I returned around noon and found the restaurant closed despite it being within their posted hours. I gave it another chance yesterday at 2 p.m. The restaurant was open, but there was very little available for purchase. The young woman working at the counter did not seem comfortable speaking or reading English or Spanish. Even when I pointed to items, she mostly responded with “I don’t know” or shrugged, and it felt like she was reluctant to serve me.
I was able to order a strawberry agua fresca and purchased chicharrones from the display stand. Unfortunately, the chicharrones were extremely unpleasant, beyond stale. About an hour after drinking the agua fresca, I experienced severe stomach issues and became very ill.
Because of this experience and the potential food safety concerns, I will be contacting the Henrico County Health Department. This situation could pose a serious risk to someone who is immunocompromised.
I walked in with a smile on my face, but was greeted with what can only be described as a look of annoyance. No greeting whatsoever, I actually had to ask if they were open because of the way she reacted to me walking in. She said yes to that question and greeted me no further.
I ordered my ice cream and during the entire interaction got no smile or interaction whatsoever. The entire time, she showed nothing but annoyance to me being there.
I understood that there was a language barrier, but facial expressions can mean more than words sometimes.
Even at checkout, all she did was quickly say “OK” after I paid.
I was thinking maybe she was just having a bad day as we all have them, and it was towards the end of the day so maybe she was just very tired.
But as soon as I walked away from the register she was not just laughing, but cracking up with her coworker- so obviously she could’ve managed to smile at me instead of making me feel completely unwanted and causing me to regret my decision to choose this place over a chain.
The ice cream was good, but nothing nearly special enough to make me return after how truly unwelcome she made me feel.
Additionally, I was disappointed by the lack of greeting upon arrival and the impersonal service.
