Tasty Thai

I have been a customer here for years. I loved their food - until tonight. I ordered 2 Tom Yam ($4.50/each), 1 Pineapple Chicken (dinner portion, $10.99), 1 Basil Leaves (dinner portion, $12.99), 1 Thai iced tea ($1.99). All carry out. The price was not quoted on the phone. I didn’t think anything of it. I should have. Nonetheless, the total should have been $34.97 per their menu prices. When I arrived to pick it up, I handed them my card. The lady charged me $50.95. I asked for a carryout menu and she handed me one, informing me it didn’t have the new prices. Well where were those? Because it’s dishonest to display one price and charge another. I understand inflation has caused price increases for everything. More than 45% is excessive. While it’s their right to charge what they want, it is wrong to not make it clear what a customer will be charged. I was comfortable spending $35, but $50? No. Everyone is cutting budget right now trying to make ends meet. This robbed me of grocery money. Finally, the food, which has always been good, was mostly bland. The Tom Yam was still awesome which I suppose is a nice way to go out because I will not buy here again after this.

Pretty good. I got takeout chicken pad thai. Not too sweet, but it did not come with a lime. It didn't taste like it had any lime cooked into it either. Would be way better with lime, but it was still pretty good. My boyfriend got medium, and instead of mixing the spice into the dish, there was a teaspoon of spice paste in a corner at the bottom of the dish. That was an unpleasant surprise for him, but overall it was a good meal.
