King Charcoal BBQ — Restaurant in Monterey Park

WARNING: This Restaurant Changed My Signed Tip Without Permission

警告：这家餐厅未经允许更改了我签过的消费小费

致king charcoal BBQ 的老板及未来顾客：

我要说明清楚：你们篡改了我签过的收据，实际上是在偷我的钱。

我写好了小费，结算了账单，并签了名——这正是正常流程。但几天后，我发现账单金额变高了。当我检查自己留存的收据时，发现你们划掉了我原本写的小费，并改成了你们的 20%。

这不是“误会”。这是欺诈行为，违法。而且完全违反了顾客在支付时所给予的信任。

给所有读到这条评论的人： • 如果你要来这里用餐，请务必仔细检查收据和银行账单。 • 更好的是，干脆不要把钱交给他们——花在一家靠服务赚取小费而不是伪造小费的餐厅。

至于食物？温吞、油腻，“烧烤”味道更像瓶装调料，而不是用炭火烤制的。服务几乎不存在，除非你把他们在我离开后在收据上的“创意笔迹”算作服务的话。

你们做的事情不仅仅是糟糕的客户服务——这是偷窃。每一位潜在顾客都应该知道这一点。

签名： 一位永远不会再光顾的前顾客，并且会确保别人知道原因。

To the owners and future customers of King Charoal BBQ

I want this to be clear: you tampered with my signed receipt and stole from me.

I wrote my tip, totaled the bill, and signed — exactly how it’s supposed to work. But days later, I see a higher charge on my statement. When I checked my copy of the receipt, I found you had crossed out my original tip and inserted your own: 20%.

That’s not “a mistake.” That’s fraud. It’s illegal. It’s also a complete violation of the trust any customer gives when they hand you their payment.

To anyone reading this: • If you eat here, triple-check your receipts and your bank account afterward. • Better yet, don’t give them the chance — spend your money at a business that earns tips, not forges them.

As for the food? Lukewarm, oily, and the “BBQ” tasted like it came from a bottle instead of a grill. Service was minimal, unless you count the creative penmanship on my bill afterward.

What you did isn’t just bad customer service — it’s theft. And every potential customer deserves to know.

Signed, A former customer who will never return — and will make sure...

Delicious, well seasoned skewers for a good price. Lamb, beef, and chicken wings had a nice charcoal taste to them along with that classic Chinese "sweet heat" seasoning on skewers. Squid was all right. Only knock I'd give it is lack of choice when it comes to flavor; it's all the same seasoning whatever type of skewer you order. Be prepared to pay with Venmo as of Dec 2020 due to COVID. Overall, solid place for skewers, would recommend for a snack. FYI, the hours on the storefront say...

We sat in the back (outside) and bought a bunch of cooked skewers. They also give you a complimentary bowl of boiled peanuts, which was so good. We ordered another and thought it was still free, but ended up getting charged $5. It was pretty chill in the back. There were groups of people hanging out there for hours playing games. The parking lot is small, but free. There's more parking...
