Just came back from Japan. A delicious bowl of pork ramen cost me $7. No taxes, no tips. Beautiful service. Nice utensil and ceramic bowl. Here, a CV phony bowl of ramen $20 to $25. Tips, charges, credit card fees. Headache
-
Now ban hotels' surcharge fees. What the heck is the resort fees?
-
I think the food should pay for restaurant's fees. No hidden fees.
-
Sometimes those crooks charge 20% “service fee,” regardless of how many people are in your party.
-
Resort fee gotta go
-
Don’t rip people off. You should be able to look at your menu and have a pretty good idea what your bill will be.

Finally!

Voting blue in California isn't working out

Here's a nice lady who is wondering about the same thing I am: Do you tip on take out? I feel like I'm doing the work when I pick up my meals. I tried to justify leaving a few bucks for the containers they use, but they are saving a lot by not using waitstaff, bussers, and dishwashers. Plus, if it is a sit-down restaurant, they get to fit more people in the dining area.

California, the land of taxes.

Stopped in a bar for one beer yesterday. Receipt had 5 (FIVE) different taxes and surcharges included. Beer ended up costing $15 with tip. Before you ask, it was just a mid-level neighborhood joint. And no, it did not come with a BJ.

How about some FOOD INSPECTORS ? 😡

Prices WILL NOT be going way up... we'll just finally be seeing TRUE prices. July is plenty of time to print new menus. I'll NEVER tip takeout. I'm so excited about this!!!
-
Good, just pay your employees, it shouldn't be our job you pay your employees. I don't mind paying more for the food I just hate tipping culture.
-
My fingers have become laser fast these days. My eyes can easily distinguish a tipping screen from not without even reading anything. That skip button is clicked with quickness 😂
-
honestly i couldnt care less. charge as much as you want. I cook 80% of my meals
-
This is the only positive thing CA has done in the last 4 years
-
All they will do is charge more for the food. People that eat out is a luxury, so they will pay it! Restaurants are getting so so so creative when it comes to billing and charges. Parking?? You gotta start with parking. Everyone has their hands out for tip, for making a sandwich? What about McDonald's, let's get a jar going there!

Tips is too high already. Really don’t want extra charge.
-
Restaurant food is trash.
