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]

    Not my problem close the restaurant if you can’t function without bait and switch tactics with your menu. The answer to your problem isn’t shady business tactics. Maybe due to the mismanageement of the economy and inflation restaurants aren’t viable business ideas anymore. As the country country increasingly turns to authoritarianism as an answer to it’s failing economic system you are going to see more similar things that once was viable is no longer.
