Sushi • Buffet • Chinese • Chicken


"I went in to this buffet with my daughter just before 4 pm this past Saturday thinking I would be charged the lunchtime rate. I had two small plates of mediocre sushi, and my daughter had a plate of sweet and sour chicken and a small bowl of ice cream. When I got the bill, I was quite surprised to see I had been charged $10.99 for my meal and $5.95 for my daughter. I questioned the price with the waitress and she sent over the manager, who demanded I follow him to the front door to see where the price was posted at the bottom of numerous prices depending on the time and day you were eating there (very confusing). I told him we didn't eat very much and didn't realize we were going to be charged that much or we would have chosen another restaurant, and I politely asked him to give us a break on the price today, and we would be happy to come back. Otherwise, I would not be returning. He said no very emphatically and went about his business. I put $15 cash with the bill, gave $2 to the waitress and left. The manager quickly came out after me and started writing down my tag number and threatening to call the cops on me! I said he was being very unreasonable, and that if he wanted to call the cops over $4 to go ahead. Well, he did call, and they actually showed up at my house demanding the $4.89. I couldn't believe they actually wasted their time over less than $5! I told them how the guy yelled at me in the parking lot in front of my young daughter, shaking us both up quite a lot, but paid the money, as I didn't see I had another choice. Needless to say, I won't ever eat there again, and yes, the food is pretty crappy, too, just like everyone else has said."
