I ordered the beef bugolgi expecting it to be wonderful because the previous Friday two gentleman had ordered it while I was trying to decide what to order (my first time being there). I was impressed with the amount of food they provided for $8. So, today I walked 5 blocks to place my order. When I got back to my office I opened it and to my surprise it was nothing more than (literally) shredded cheese steak beef soaked in their "special sauce" (tasted like nothing more than terriyaki sauce) over a bed of white rice and ice berg lettuce covered with ranch dressing (which had begun to curdle from the heat). I normally don't ask places to exchange food because I've worked in the food service industry and I can appreciate how hard of a job it can be. However, I felt inclined to request an exchange because it was no way I could eat the dish as prepared. Plus, I had spent $8 and I was looking forward to a good lunch. I called "Take Away" back and requested to exchange the dish. The owner, in an angry tone, told me to come back in and then hung up abruptly.

I will never spend a dime in this place again. Terrible customer service, terrible sandwiches, terrible beef bulgolgi, and super high prices compared with other shops in the area. I will not be returning and I feel like I wasted $8 and my entire lunch hour walking...

Then she says "Not you though" then in the same breath thanks me for the N95 masks I gave her. I've noticed she's been holding a grudge ever since I pointed to and asked for a danish with extra frosting. She snarkly replied "its the same thing". Needless to say, I won't be purchasing anything from her dirty, rat infested shop whose only positive feature is its...
