    I've just eaten my last meal at Seaside Park Surf Taco after a thoroughly lazy and indifferent…read morecustomer experience. I've eaten there several times each summer since at least 2014. The cost of my meals there has soared at least 250% - $32 bucks for two takeaway burritos?! Sure, everything costs more now, but the carelessly handled food and poor service last night was the breaking point. I ordered by phone--twice correcting the order-taker for getting my name wrong (it's only the single-most common male name since the US started keeping records...). When I arrived at the restaurant, which was empty (SSP Surf Taco is usually crowded at 7 PM) I was told the order wasn't ready... only it WAS ready, but the order-taker got my name wrong a 3d time and my meal was sitting there on the counter getting cold. So I waited in the restaurant. When a counterperson finally asked if I had ordered, I informed them I was waiting for an order I had called in. They checked the bags and informed me it was ready, but the name was wrong. When I argued that the order is now probably cold, the counterperson dismissively told me foil wrapping would keep it warm. It didn't. When I got my order home, both items were room-temperature. One item was wrong, and I discovered they no longer included tortilla chips with their meals (a minor inconvenience, but a big part of the experience, IMO.) All in all, this litany of minor inconveniences has sworn me off something I genuinely enjoyed as part the experience of being at the Shore for 13 summers. Never thought Surf Taco would take its customers for granted, but here we are. And there I go...

    I don't come down to the shore as much I did when I was younger but every time I do come down I…read morestop at surf taco, the food here is amazing, the staff are usually very nice, my only complaint is the price seems to have went up 22 bucks I believe for 3 chicken tacos and a dollar extra for chips seems a bit expensive but worth it in my opinion, but where the hell did the free stickers go?

An associate--who appeared to be new, as I've visited this location many times before--approached me and handed me a bag. She said something while doing so, but it was unclear. Assuming the order was mine, I took the bag and left. As soon as I got into my car, I received a phone call from someone who I believe was the manager, stating only that I had taken the wrong food. I immediately returned to the store and handed the bag back. The manager explained that it belonged to the other customers who had been waiting. He then asked me if I had opened the bag, which I had not--I had only just reached my car when I received the call. The other customers looked through the bag and said they would still take the food. Throughout this interaction, the manager did not apologize or take accountability for the mistake made by his staff. I was left standing there feeling as though I had done something wrong, and the situation made me uncomfortable, especially with the way the other customers were looking at me. I understand that mistakes happen, and I'm not upset about the mix-up itself. What was disappointing was the manager's lack of professionalism, communication, and apology. A simple explanation or acknowledgment would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, this experience left a very negative impression.
