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]

    Id hand the Waiter directly $30-$40, not pay the rest of the bill, leave and never return. Fuck this restaurant.

      I did this the other night, they tacked on a 15% fee on the bill.

      I crossed it out and paid the actual cost of the meal and left my tip in cash.

      I will not be returning.

      This only hurts the server who would have to pay the bill out of pocket.

        If any employer does that, contact your state labor board. That is hella illegal.
