Default Sakura Plaza Grande...never again!

My wife and I like to eat a late lunch/early dinner. Today we were going to the 5PM Polo match so she chose Sakura in Plaza Grande. We arrived at 2:45 and were given the lunch menu which goes until 3PM. We sat at the bar and a server brought us a lunch menu. I guess they were understaffed because there was no real bartender. My wife ordered a glass of wine which was promptly brought to her. I ordered a Margarita which didn't arrive until after 3:15. We were ready to order when the server said it is after lunch menu and here is the dinner menu...with prices twice as expensive. We explained that we were there before 3PM and the server said that it was after 3 so dinner menu only. I asked for the manager and explained what happened. He said in his broken English "After 3 no lunch." I said that we were there before 3 and that is why we had lunch menus. He said again "after 3 no lunch only dinner. We paid for our drinks and left. When we left he said "thank you, come again." I told him we wont be back. I was patient enough to wait for my drink almost a half an hour after my wife got her drink, but when the server pulled the lunch menus from our hands and handed us dinner menus at twice the price and the manager backed her up, that was it for me.
