[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel the same way about eating at mid range restaurants now. We just had lunch at Clydes this weekend, and the food was underwhelming, it was more expensive, smaller portions, and on top of it, we’re charging a restaurant recovery fee.

The restaurant recovery fee was most annoying to me, because it seems disingenuous when they have reduced portions and increased prices. [/quote]

RESTAURANT RECOVERY FEE

Our restaurants have been operating with extraordinary increases in the cost of doing business.  High inflation, rising wages, and supply chain challenges have continued beyond the pandemic creating a difficult operating environment.  We have reluctantly chosen to implement a separate 3.75% Restaurant Recovery Fee for 2023 with the hope that it can be eliminated in the future as conditions improve.  We appreciate your support and understanding.[/quote]

Wow, that’s BS. Prices are already higher. Of course this chain is not a good member of our community. They campaigned so heavily against the meals tax that would have helped fund our schools and spread the costs to include nonresidents of Fairfax.[/quote]

Clyde's?  I think of them as a DC chain, not Fairfax.[/quote]

There is no Clyde’s in fairfax county. They are all in dc, Maryland, Alexandria city and Loudoun (Broadlands).[/quote]
