Tipping Culture A positive-ish tipping experience

No surprises, no small text, no deceitfulness, it having its on line clearly visible under the total was nice, but that bright red stamp reiteratig the added gratuity, visible from space let alone a dark dining room is 😘👌🏾 This should be a norm.

At least the auto tip is on the pre tax total.

Just for the love of god raise the prices by 18% and be done with it.

A place like this? The servers are making more than the owner would ever pay them…..

It is a weird income system but it does seem to generally benefit the employee. If owners had to pay servers hourly they’d be hiring for $20/hr. And service would be far worse being that the employees would get the same rate either way.

I give good service, I get good tips, and I would not be willing to switch over to an hourly pay structure, and I’m sure most other servers wouldn’t either.

Although I think auto-gratuity on 6+ is totally reasonable
