We pivoted and decided on an entree and an appetizer that we would share. We went ahead and ordered two rum and pineapple juice drinks (not a fancy cocktail) served in plastic cups and 2 bottled waters. Then we were told the chef never showed up for work so there was only pizza and appetizers available. We again were flexible and decided on two appetizers.
Our bill was shocking! Our drinks were $15 each and the water $5 each for plastic generic bottles of water. Are you kidding me? Our two appetizers, 6 tempura shrimp and 6 conch fritters totaled $47 which was overpriced but not a surprise since the price was listed on the menu.
We then noticed an added fee of $4 for using a credit card? I’ve never in all my travels had such a charge! With prices this inflated, Corsairs should have absorbed the CC charges like every other restaurant in the world does! Then a gratuity of 20% which even included the credit card charge! So for two drinks, two waters, and two appetizers it was $110! How can you charge $5 for a small bottle of water when every place on this island charges $5 for a Carib? Certainly there is a big difference in those retail prices. How can you charge $15 for a small drink when every place on this island charges $8-10 and perhaps $11 for a fancy drink? Vinny was angry about us questioning these prices and said his cup is bigger. His seems to be about one ounce bigger than the very smallest cups being served around the island …which should not correspond to double the cost!
The two appetizers were mediocre. The tempura shrimp was fine but the conch fritters were overcooked and had no conch taste or any taste really beyond the batter.
We have been dining ant Corsairs annually for the past 8 years and this year will be our last. I was especially surprised at how angry Vinny was when questioned about his prices and added charges.
I really hate to see these changes happening in our island paradise! I’m guessing most people rarely look at their checks and perhaps could care less about the cost but we are a retired couple that love this island and don’t like to see people taken advantage of.
What happened to Corsairs?
Great cold drinks, plenty of ice, amazing wings and the best fried rice I’ve ever had! Fun conversation and great storytelling. ❤️
