Went to a restaurant in LA today and when I got the check I noticed that it was a bit higher than it should be. Then I noticed this 18% service charge. So… We, as customers, need to help pay for their servers instead of the owners paying their servers a living wage. And on top of that they have suggested tip. I called bs on this. I will bet you that the servers do not see a dime of this 18% service charge. [deleted a word so it wasn’t a grammatical horror to read]
Name and shame. Fuck this place.
Also “kids shells” for $22? Please tell me this is not macaroni and cheese.
It’s almost certainly a Mac & Cheese variant. Stuff like this is why I heavily research restaurant prices before going out.
Gem lettuce for $22? Wtf is the US smoking?
Since it is L.A. the markup is because of the volume of people willing/able to pay $22 for a kids Mac and cheese. At that point the tip is just mocking the workers of the restaurant.
the most concerning part for me is the “LA woman” charge… is that just a restaurant?
