| - Why would anyone conclude a perfect 5 star dinner experience by annoying the customer at the last moment?
I almost never frequent The Keg when I'm paying, but I couldn't resist when they emailed me a free entree birthday certificate, so I carefully planned out what my date and I would be ordering to estimate costs, settling on the Bleu Cheese Filet for $34.
It sounded amazing... a filet mignon wrapped in pepper bacon and grilled to your liking, covered in a bleu cheese crust, served golden brown and sprinkled with roasted garlic cloves. YES PLEASE!
In hindsight, I realized what happened when I placed my order. The waiter confirmed my order back to me, but he said "a bacon wrapped filet classic with bleu cheese crust, sauteed mushrooms and twice baked potato"
I assumed that he had just repeated my order back to me, but he really confirmed several upgrades, such as a larger $44 steak with sauteed mushrooms and a $2/per crust.
I assumed I was just going to pay $34 + tax for one of the entrees, but I was charged $46 + tax. Its not that much more, but it was more than I had expected to pay... so I was visibly annoyed.
But rather than being a `Yelp Mafia Douche`, I considered how my date and I raved about the meal, and agreed it was definitely worth the extra coinage and this 5 star review.
See you next year, Keg
