[quote=Anonymous]Thankfully we don’t eat out in DC too often. The prices, IMHO, are too high. Hip Mexican place, at the Wharf recommended by Tom Sietsema, has $35 enchiladas that are just decent and $20 margaritas that are watered down and more ice than cocktail. I can get food that’s just as good, often better, in the suburbs and exurbs, for much less money. Nail in the coffin for me eating in DC is the 20% service fee we got added to a bill when this whole fee thing rolled out. This was at a restaurant near Cap One Arena. It confused me and I didn’t know what to do. Unfortunately, I wrongly assumed that this fee went straight to the waiter, so I didn’t add anything to the tip. I always tip 20 - 25%, but I guess I unintentionally stiffed the waiter. [/quote]
