💡 How to read the badges: ✓ verified means we read that price off something the restaurant itself controls — its own site, its own menu, or its own ordering page. ⚠ price check pending means we believe the place belongs here but could not confirm the number from an owner source, usually because the menu sits behind a bot wall or the site publishes no prices; each amber card says exactly what still needs checking. Delivery marketplaces and listing sites are never accepted as sources. Prices still change — check before a special trip, and flag anything expired on our main directory.
