    I’ve seen this at restaurants serving more than a given number of people. Did you attend a dinner with a large group?

      I’ve been seeing it more regardless of group size. I went to a restauraunt alone and they had the audacity to charge a service fee and ask for a fucking tip

      I wouldve tipped more than the service charge! So I gave nothing instead

        That is super frustrating. Especially if the “service charge” isn’t really going to pay the staff a living wage. I’d be curious to hear from someone that works in a restaurant that does this whether or not they are actually being paid better after it has been implemented or if it is just cash grab by the individual restaurant owner/operator. Any takers?
