LARGE PARTIES BEWARE..!!!
I am quite the foodie and have frequented this establishment since its opening several years back. We are fans of the Sunday lunch and patronize the restaurant at least once a month. Although the quality of food and service has taken a dive after the change in ownership, we still enjoyed the atmosphere. So much so, that myself and my Fiancé seriously considered this for our upcoming wedding reception.
We researched the lunch menu options as well as the seating arrangements before meeting with the "wait-staff". The menu items topped out around $9.50 for what was selected.
First thing when we met with the wait-staff to plan the 1:30-2:00 reception, we were told that we would be ordering from the "Dinner Menu", which represents an immediate 25% increase in cost for the same food selections. When we questioned why we were selecting dinner items for a 1:30 event, we were told "that's what WE prefer". after what seemed to be a bad used car buying experience, between the wait-staff running to the back to "see what she could do with her manager", we finally had her agree that a 1:30-2:00 reception WOULD be considered lunch and that we were to select from the menu accordingly.
Problem solved, right.? WRONG.!!! VERY WRONG.!!!
We inquired about multiple lunch menu items for $9.50 that were going to work great for our 60 guests, UNFORTUNATELY we were told that these same $9.50 items would now cost us a minimum of $15.00.!!! Confused yet.? We sure were. When we questioned the immediate 58% price increase we once again got, "let me go to the back and talk to the manager again" After returning, we were told that the restaurant would have to have 2-3 additional wait-staff to serve us and that's the reason for the 58% price increase. Confused as we were, we questioned "doesn't the wait-staff work for gratuity" (18% on parties larger than 8). AT this point we were told, "sorry, we just can’t afford to do your lunch for that price" (THE LISTED PRICE ON THE MENU).
Moral of the story: We were willing to bring 60 of our closest friend to Imperial Koi and share with them what we THOUGHT to be an enjoyable experience, instead what we got was what we feel to be an OVERPRICED, UNDER EDUCATED ballpark quote from a restaurant looking to EXPLOIT a couples desire to dine with them on their special occasion.
