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]
Bold of you to assume that’s going to the servers and not straight into the owners pocket.
OP does not seem to be assuming any such thing.
It’s likely going to bussers/hosts/associated non-cook BOH
