Ordered fried mushroom appetizer in the form of an ala carté togo lunchy/snack-type situation. The batter was appropriate to the vegetable being fried and sufficiently coated the lil' mushies. The sauces were PLENTIFUL and varied. All told, the amount of saprophytes served up equaled exactly 9. Approx 180g average cost =1$. The number of ramekins filled with sauces equaled 3. Approx 5oz total (Chipotle mayo and Ranch) $= +/- .50. The improvements that I can see as being needful are: The mushrooms before being battered and abused/fried need to have their stems re-cut, as time turns these initial "harvesting" cuts at the foot of the shrooms somewhat woody, and frying this tougher piece of the stalk inside a battered shell along with some resident moisture from the mushroom itself lends to the "foot" of the mushroom texture and tooth of a slimy scab😢(sad face). The mushrooms were cooked perfectly, thankfully. As any variances in temperature can ruin the tender fellas. There were 9 individual fried fungal reproductive parts in my order, which came to 10$(menu price, 13$ including tip). And I always add the tip to the total on the restaurants end. As the only reason tipping is necessary is because restaurants are still paying floorstaff minimum wage, when they should've raised pay rates commensurate to cost of living/inflation increases rather than put the burden of care on the public, their customers. But that's what the masses are for; carrying the burden of budget cuts, and rising rates so that the profit margin may stay somewhat stable, and knowable. (I wish I would've been asked first 😜)

The service I received was perfect. Attentive, pleasant, and polite. Doing the math the lil guys came to around $1.44 each. Almost a buck fifty a piece for an item that was first (skillfully)dropped in batter, then (skillfully)dropped into the fryer, and then finally(skillfully)dropped onto a plate. I was not as disappointed (tho, the amount of mushrooms I received this time in comparison to the last time(2 years ago) was a little disheartening) as much as I was not surprised that whomever is making the calls regarding pricing and portions has decided to take the easy route in navigating these interesting financial times. I figure that I could've just put down "9 mushrooms for 13$" and left it at that, but I doubt that review would have the intended effect
