The complaint of an American tourist in our country, who claims that a restaurant in Mykonos charged her 600 euros for two cocktails and a portion of crab legs, has caused a sensation.
The American tourist claims that the restaurant managers also charged her a tip of 78 euros without her consent. "They told me I owed 600 euros for two cocktails and a portion of crab legs and then I saw on the receipt that they had charged 520 euros and they charged the rest as a tip without telling me," she told the travel agent who had arranged her trip and stay in Mykonos.
"In fact, she told me that yesterday after the incident, during a tour of the island's attractions, she bumped into her compatriot, who had been charged 1,000 euros at the same restaurant and was furious," she told protothema.gr the tour operator.
The incident
"We spent a beautiful day at the beach but please warn your future clients that the restaurant-bar we visited charged us 600 euros for two cocktails and a portion of crab legs," she said according to protothema.gr in her message to the travel agent the American woman who is in Mykonos with her 19-year-old daughter.
"While we knew that the bill would not exceed 200 euros, suddenly they ask us to pay 600 euros! They even put three men in front of us when I refused to pay because what they were asking was outrageous. The only extra expense was that we had sat for three hours on two loungers in the shop. On leaving, the locals told me that customers constantly alert the police about similar incidents involving this particular shop, but nothing is ever done," the American continued while speaking to the tour operator.
The American is going to file a complaint with the Mykonos Sub-Division of Police against the restaurant's managers as she claims she received threats from employees of the restaurant, such as "we know where you live", when she refused to pay the 600 euros for the two cocktails and a portion of crab legs.
