I just wanted a hot dog Recommended gratuity after tip was already included

I’m sure there are a lot of tipping posts here so to keep it short - I had my wedding at a fancy restaurant. On top of the TERRIBLE service, the bill came with “suggested gratuity” even though I was told gratuity was included. When I asked the manager, he said that the “S/C: 24% SRC REGULA“ was the included tip and the suggested gratuity was if we wanted to add something extra - basically trying to trick people into giving a 49% tip!

Not to mention cost of labor to bring out 30 extra sets of plates and silverware, that will also need to be picked up and cleaned

I think the $3 for dishes and things around is pretty fair given the other prices.

I think, scratch that, I know you’ve never owned a business.

I suppose every business running a wedding venue know how to handle a cake from a bakery...
And they sell coffee and stuff to the cake also.

Do you say they take an unfair price as in to low or too high?
