I went to Gustos on my way down to the Keys. I ordered a fish sandwich and when it came out it was disgusting. The piece of fish was small and looked like something you would buy in the supermarket freezer section.
I requested to speak to the manager (who happened to be the owner). I told him my concerns and he started yelling at me saying that I should try paying HIS bills! He then said that he was going to call the police to make me pay for that nasty sandwich.
I thought that the police would mediate the dispute but I found out after the fact that the owner lets the police eat there for free. When the officer got there he told me that I had to pay for the sandwich.
I told him that I didn't believe him and that I was going to call my lawyer to find out what my options were. The officer physically got between me and the payphone. I told him that he didn't have to be afraid of me leaving, I was leaving my wallet and my boyfriend at the table. I even told him that he could come with me if he wanted to.
He told me that he was "sick of dealing with me", grabbed me and spun me around and handcuffed me. The whole time the owner just stood there laughing.
When the police officer put the cuffs on me my boyfriend said that he would pay for the sandwich. Needless to say, at that point we just paid and left.
So be careful if you go to Gustos. Their food is not very good and you sure as heck can't complain about it!!!
