| - I've been here several times and really enjoy the food, sometimes. Most of the time things are great, then other times, my food will be cooked and served completely differently than before or things will be left out of my to go order. I've had the salt and pepper shrimp on several occasions and it's come cooked pan fried a few times (which is great) and then deep fried in a tempura type batter with a completely different taste other times (which is absolutely awful.) I've ordered the Chicken Katsu Curry bowl several times and it has always been served to me with the curry on the side in a separate bowl, until today which leads me to the purpose of my review. Today I received the bowl with just a little bit of curry already on top of the chicken. It was nowhere near the amount that comes in the bowl served on the side that I usually get. The chicken was on top of dry potatoes, dry carrots and dry rice. After a few AWESOME bites it was clear that the rest of the bowl was going to need more curry. I asked one of the girls at the front if I could get just a little bit more for the rest of the dish. She pulled up the information on the register and told me that it would be an additional $0.50. I was shocked considering I was only asking for a little bit more and felt that I had been shorted to begin with. So I dug around in my bag to see if I had any change and I didn't. I told her I was completely willing to pay the $0.50 except that they had a $10 minimum on cards. Her response was a very sweet smile and an "Oh, sorry." With no other options, I went back to my table, took a few more bites and had to throw the rest away.
For the quality and taste of their food, I would give them 4 stars-- when they get it right of course. I really do like the food and the place is always busy. It's just that there is no guarantee that I'll get the same thing.
For all of the inconsistencies, I would give them 1 star.
For refusing to give me 2 tablespoons of curry because I could not meet the $10 minimum purchase requirement, I give them a hardcore 0 stars and a firm statement that they have lost my business FOREVER.
I will have to find some place else and that's disappointing because I'll really miss their soups. :(
