We were just in Miami and every single restaurant, cheap to expensive, did this.

And if they say no then you'll leave another 20%?

Why? I love places that do that. I wish every restaurant just automatically added 20% and we could be done with this whole tipping business.


I'd prefer they raise their prices by 20% so there really isn't any surprise.

Looking at the menu, my order would be $39.50 + $7.90 service charge. That's pretty steep for Ramen for one person if I needed to add an additional $8 tip.


Why? That is their tip. You’re already tipping 20% why do you feel the obligation to tip another five dollars?

What kind of Ramen is $40, it should be $14-20 max. I would not tip anything else.

Are they putting gold flakes in the ramen?

That’s the tip. Definitely no expectation to leave more.

Yeah I usually add $1-$5 depending on what I ordered.
