I has a bad experience here. I ordered a green tamale and a red tamale and beans and rice for take-out. When I arrived to pick up the order the bill was $19.70. The tamales were 4.95 each so that makes the beans and rice about 8+ dollars I guess. After a frustrating conversation with the hostess about the price, I asked for the manager. Well it must have been his daughter because he was as dumb as she was. Out of frustration I paid that ridiculous price and left vowing never to return. I can see the order being written up incorrectly perhaps causing the bill to be high but that is why restaurant have managers, to fix problems and hopefully make sure others do not happen in the first place. Not at La Pinata!
