I'm visiting Arizona and I'm not from around here. I went online to order food to go. I called the Tempe location but was unaware the numbers listed were for both Tempe and Glendale. I placed an order for 2 pounds of crawfish and the lady advised me that they only had frozen crawfish and it was $7.99. I drove to Tempe and the server at the front named Kristina was not able to find my order. Come to find out, i placed my order at the Glendale location. One of the male workers was kind enough to call Glendale location to cancel my order.
I told Kristina that Glendale location advised Me their crawfish was frozen. Kristina and the male employee looked at each other and said, "Glendale may have ran out of live crawfish but our crawfish is alive and fresh."
LIARS!!! They charged me $10.99 for a pound of soft shelled, broken, tiny frozen crawfish.
I'm originally from Houston TX and is a hardcore crawfish Lover. I know my Crawfish. I should of asked her to show me one live crawfish to prove it.
Note to Kristina:
1) it is NOT crawfish season
2) Dont lie and tell someone your crawfish is alive and fresh when it is really frozen.
3) you can easily tell frozen crawfish from fresh crawfish. No need to lie, it just makes you look like a pathetic liar.
How to quickly tell frozen crawfish from fresh live crawfish:
1) Frozen: shell is soft, Cracks and beaks easily. Shell can almost be paper thin.
Live: shell is hard and firm. Color is dark red and vibrant.
2) Frozen: meat breaks apart in pieces.
Live: meat is like fresh shrimp.
I also ordered lemon pepper mussels, which were extra salty and punched a stack of high blood pressure and stroke if I ate any more.
I advise people to go to the Glendale location vs Tempe. They are more honest and will charge for the correct product they sell. They are not devious and misleading Like Kristina at station 5 working at 7:52pm on 2/23.
