    I am a former waitress at an all you can eat seafood restaurant. We always upheld our end off the deal. All you can eat with fast service! That's how I made the big bucks by delivering in a speedy manner. Now the kitchen staff was a different matter! We waitresses were fighting over reorders in the kitchen to please the customer. They could have just made more. Simple logic.

    Joel, didn't you get cut off in Mexico too?
    Years ago in Mexico, a group of 5 (3 from UK and 2 from Germany) ordered food and the waiters kept bringing out extras on top of the food we'd ordered. Long story short, we got charged for these extras we didn't order.
    If you rip tourists off, we remember and it tarnishes the reputation of the country.

      All-you-can-eat buffets are not meant for competition eaters that are making UA-cam videos while attempting to stuff themselves to the absolute max like wild hogs. Restaurants need to make money, otherwise, they'll eventually go out of business & have to close. Could you imagine if you owned a restaurant & a whole table of competition eaters sat down to stuff themselves like savage animals??? Or, if competition eaters showed up on a weekly basis to gorge on dozens of pounds of food? You would soon have to put an end to your own buffet. Some of these power eaters can take down over 15 lbs of food in one sitting, & that's all money out of your pocket. I love watching people like Joel, Randy Santel, Katina, Molly, etc, but you have to draw a line in the sand in certain situations, & this would definitely be one of them. To their credit, they actually never stopped him from eating, even though he was probably eating some sort of cheap mixture of beef & soy, & quite possibly also some dog, cat, & rodents all ground up into the mix.

    I've visited Playa Del Carmen many times over the last 15 years(with the exception of 2020 & 2021). Catering to the young gringos is why it's so popular! I was trying to figure out where this small restaurant was located. The best I can guess is that's on or near 10th Ave in Centro. In December 2021 the MXN was trading at about 20 to the US$.
    Joel, the bottom line is that the waitress & management padded the bill because they saw you as an 'easy mark'! Nothing personal, just a way some restaurants &
    bars work all over the world!
    The reason why the hamburger tasted differently than North America is that many Mexican packing houses add a bit spicy pork to the beef patties! Oh, by the way Joel Mexico is in North America.
    The best experience to enjoy a true Mexican style hamburger is the food carts selling Tortas in many variations.
