I went to a this nice ramen place that we saw while walking about. I wasn't aware of how expensive it was till we all sat down and looked at the menu. I could afford it but wasn't expecting to spend that much on ramen. However, I'm all for paying good money for an experience to match the price. This place however… Did not. The food was good but not worth the high price tag. I've had better ramen for a quarter of the price. The service however was very good and we all liked our waiter who treated us well. Overall, I'd give it probably a 3 out of 5 in my head. Good dinner but nothing to write home about.
At the end, the waiter came up to us – a party of 4 – and asked us how the food was. We weren't going to be 100% honest (obviously) so we said yeah it was lovely, you were great etc. Then she pulled out the QR code and told us to give a 5 star review since we enjoyed the food and service. I thought that was quite ambitious but sure, my partner used the code. Then, she asked for another review… since we were four people. I guess one review wasn't enough. So then I awkwardly pulled my phone out too and scanned the code.
How do we feel about this sort of stuff? Indifferent? Annoyed? Acceptable?
