DO NOT SIGN A CONTRACT WITH THIS DECEPTIVE BUISNESS - We celebrated my wife’s birthday by having dinner here. I reserved the table from 7:30pm-9:30pm. I had to sign a contract with the event manager in order to make the reservation due to the size of our group and pay half of a "minimum spend fee" up front. The agreed upon minimum food and beverage spend fee was $850.

When we arrived for dinner our waitress immediately told us the restaurant closes at 9:00pm and we would need to order all of our food as soon as possible. We felt rushed throughout the entire experience. At the end of our dinner I asked the waitress for my receipt and she told me it would be emailed to me the following day and that we were “all set”. I felt like this meant we met our minimum spend agreement and I didn’t feel like making an issue of it because we were celebrating my wife’s birthday. I just wanted her to have a great night. We finished our food and began to leave at 9:00pm.

The next day my credit card was charged for the meal without me ever seeing the receipt that I had requested. I even checked my email to see that it was still not received. The total cost of the meal was $1,141. I then emailed the event manager to ask for the receipt for a second time. What I received was a deceptive invoice that had large totals instead of listing out individual items purchased. This was clearly an attempt to hide fake charges that were applied to my dinner. I then called her to request my actual receipt that listed individual items purchased. I received it later that day.

When looking over the receipt I found fraudulent charges labeled as FOOD ($231) and WINE ($154) totaling $385. This amount was then inflated by added service fees, taxes and gratuities to a total of $675.64. This includes a beer and wine tax of 8.9% applied to $154 of wine that was never purchased or received.

I called the event manager on Friday March 3rd in order to resolve this issue. She did not answer so I left a voicemail requesting that she return my call. After a few hours had passed without a return call I decided to try again using my wife’s phone. The event manager answered promptly. It’s pretty clear this business was dodging my calls.

I discussed these issues with her and she said she would address them with the general manager of the restaurant and reach back out to me with a solution on Monday March 6th. She has not called me back.

If you look at other 1 star reviews you will see multiple people have had similar issues. This is a recurring problem with this business. Dine elsewhere.
