Unethical Shady Restaurant Practice!:
I thought I would give this Chinese Restaurant a try since it was in my neighborhood and the price seemed reasonable.
I had called and placed an order for pick up from their lunch menu. I ordered the L1, which should have been only $4.75 plus MA State meal tax, which is 6.25% and should have amounted to $5.04. I asked the Order Taker how much it was and he quoted $7.00.
I thought it seemed funny and it might have been a mistake on the Order Taker's side so I went to the restaurant to pick up my order and asked again how much and he still quoted $7.00. I mentioned to him, on your menu the L1 costs only $4.75 plus tax so how come it's $7.00? He immediately panicked and said, "OK OK, $5.50!" in a slightly irritated manner. Just to not argue over what should have been a difference of $.46, I paid for the guy and did not leave a tip.
I know it's really only a matter of a few cents but if you think about how many times they screw each customer over loose change per day, it really adds up to money they can pocket themselves with.
I would suggest for any person wanting to order from or are just curious about giving Asian Bistro a try to review the amount of your order as they may be pulling something shady as they did with me. Also, I would not recommended bother tipping them as they may already be pocketing money from you without your knowledge when you pay.
I can honestly say that was first and last time I will be ordering from Asian Bistro and if they continue with such money grubbing practices, I can definitely foresee them closing their doors soon in the near future.
PS Fried Rice was smothered in oil, Chicken Wings was bland and dry as jerky, and cheese in Pineapple Shrimp Crab Rangoon was very runny.
