[quote=Anonymous]https://oag.dc.gov/release/consumer-alert-dc-restaurants-are-barred-charging Restaurants may violate the District’s consumer laws if they: Bury fee information in fine print on a menu. Fail to disclose the amount or percentage of a fee until the bill is given to the diner at the end of a meal. Use fees collected from diners for purposes contrary to the purposes disclosed. Use ambiguous or misleading language that fails to fully convey to a diner how a fee will be used (for example, charging an ambiguous “restaurant recovery” fee without explaining what the fee will assist in recovering). https://wtop.com/dc/2023/03/deceptive-fee-tacked-onto-your-restaurant-bill-dc-attorney-general-issues-consumer-alert/[/quote]
