A charge from Quemar Wood-Fired Cocina on a bank or card statement typically corresponds to in-person dining, bar tabs, special events, or reservations made at the restaurant. If the descriptor includes prefixes like “TST*” or payment tags such as “AplPay,” the actual merchant is still Quemar, while the prefix reflects the payment platform or point-of-sale system used to process the transaction. Charges may include food and beverage totals, tax, tip, and, where applicable, deposits or holds tied to large-party reservations.

To verify or resolve questions about a Quemar charge, customers should first compare the posted amount and date to their reservation confirmations, receipts, or digital wallet history. If something doesn’t match, contacting the restaurant directly by phone or via the contact information on their official website is the best next step. Guests can request an itemized receipt, clarify gratuity, or dispute potential errors. For payments made through Apple Pay or other wallets, reviewing the transaction details in the wallet app can also confirm the merchant, location, and exact charge breakdown before escalating to the card issuer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my card statement show “AplPay TST* QUEMAR” or something similar for this charge?

This descriptor indicates that your payment at Quemar Wood-Fired Cocina was processed through Apple Pay (“AplPay”) and the Toast point-of-sale system (“TST*”). The actual merchant is Quemar Wood-Fired Cocina in Virginia Beach, and the charge reflects your dining or bar purchase there.

What kinds of purchases typically result in a charge from Quemar Wood-Fired Cocina?

Most charges from Quemar Wood-Fired Cocina come from dine-in meals, cocktails in the Tranquilo Lounge, or special occasions such as celebrations and date nights. The final amount may include food, drinks, tax, and any tip you authorized on the Toast POS or your printed receipt.

Can Quemar Wood-Fired Cocina place a temporary hold or authorization on my card?

Yes. Like many restaurants using modern POS systems, Quemar may place a temporary authorization for an estimated amount when you open a tab or when a server first runs your card. After you sign and add a tip, the final amount is captured and the original authorization hold should drop off within a few days, depending on your bank.

How do I request a refund or correction for an incorrect charge from Quemar?

Start by calling the restaurant using the phone number listed on quemarcocina.com or on your receipt. Provide the date of your visit, the last four digits of your card, and the exact amount in question. They can review the ticket in their Toast POS system and, if there was a mistake (such as a double charge or incorrect tip), issue a partial or full refund back to your card.

Does Quemar Wood-Fired Cocina have recurring charges or subscriptions?

No. Quemar Wood-Fired Cocina operates as a restaurant and lounge and does not sell memberships or recurring subscription services. Any charges from Quemar should be one-time transactions tied to specific visits, events, or tabs. Multiple charges in a short period usually indicate multiple visits, split checks, or separate tabs.

How can I get a copy of my itemized receipt from Quemar if I’ve lost it?

Contact Quemar directly and let them know the approximate date and time of your visit, your server’s name if you remember it, and the last four digits of the card used. They can look up your check in their Toast system and email or print an itemized receipt so you can confirm each food and drink item that was billed.

What should I do if I don’t recognize a Quemar Wood-Fired Cocina charge?

First, ask anyone who may share your card or digital wallet—family members or partners—if they recently dined at Quemar in Virginia Beach. Then cross-check the date and amount in your banking app with Apple Pay or card transaction history. If no one recognizes the purchase, contact Quemar to see if they can locate the ticket, and then report the transaction to your card issuer for further investigation if it still appears unauthorized.

Can tips or gratuity at Quemar cause my final charge to be higher than the original amount shown?

Yes. The initial authorization often reflects the pre-tip total. After you add a gratuity on the printed receipt or on the Toast tablet, the final posted amount will be higher. If the increase seems larger than the tip you intended, request a copy of the signed receipt from Quemar so you can verify the tip line and total.
