Been there, won't return.
Even a large party... We brought you business, so you lower your service standards?
Fuck that. Pay your staff.
Also, it's uh, racist. https://archive.is/20230906072713/https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/05/opinion/minimum-wage-racism.html
The "fuck you pay your staff" sentiment is very valid, however, you shouldn't reward a business that doesn't pay their staff well with your money. The reality is, every single restaurant pays their staff a slave wage for the work they have to perform. Even chain restaurants work their employees like dogs. People who excel in the restaurant biz are hard working mfers.
Yeah. That's actually the "fuck you" part, as in, I'm not returning. As it is, I rarely eat out, partially for this reason, partially because inflation is painful.
Oh you sweet summer child. I'm not talking about the "large group" gratuity (which is also bullshit)... I'm talking about restaurants that are now adding an 18% gratuity for every bill - even if you just came in to have a drink.
Sounds like a good reason to pay the bill with the CC and dispute it as fraud after the fact. Chargebacks hurt businesses.
