i don't get the point neither.
hurricane cafe is not one of my favs, but it is sure not a bad one.
they are pricy, yes, so are most good spots here in the area, sorrily, but that's not new.
to spend 1KUS$ with a family of 5 for a full dinner with a good wine is on the east not out of the ordinary.
so did they charge you items which you did not order/receive?
did they charge you more than stated on the menue for the received items?
i will be the first who blames out loud a business which scams/ripps off his customers, but i would like to hear some details/facts before somebody writes out loud "don't go there".
you "spoke to locals who state a dinner for 5 should just cost not more than $200.-"???
now that's crap.
we have some nice spots down here where you don't get even close to a dinner for 200 bucks, and there's sure not good bottle of wine included.
bring up some details so we can discuss that theme.
thanks
Mike
