Tom Douglas going straight to $15/hour, adding 20% service charge at 3 restaurants [Seattle]SO basically they are "going out of business"?

I read an article about a fancy cafe in Massachusetts doing something similar. Wait staff aren’t getting tips anymore, but will be at seventeen bucks an hour next year.
The menu was linked to the piece. Six bucks for oatmeal, ten for scrambled eggs, eleven for a salad and upward from there.
No thanks. Wanna bet many of their patrons live paycheck to paycheck and wonder why?

Okay so folks that do decide to eat there won’t be leaving tips for the staff. The idea of having 20% added to your bill regardless of service is out of line. I wonder how long he’ll stay in business since the restaurant business in Seattle is highly competitive.

Looked up the menu for one of the places. Hamburger from $18.00, Frito Pie 15.00, Chicken $25.00. Not that hungry? Soup’s only 14.00, green beans $12.00. Raw scallops are $14.00. Don’t know how much they are if you want them cooked.
By the way - no free wi-fi, so McDonalds has a competitive advantage for the burger.

Tom Douglas’ Dahlia Lounge, Palace Kitchen and The Carlile Room.
No thanks.
I’ll stick with a ChickFillA
in Mid-America, not the Left Coast.

That’s really stupid...what a lost opportunity.
They could’ve doubled food prices on the menu at the same time. Think how much money the restaurants could be making.

Same with this place....looks like high end food.
Wonder how the dining crowd takes this.....20% surcharge.
Let's say your meal is $30..and you have a date. So that's another $30...and they are going to tack on $12...to your bill. Won't be any tip..from me...if I was going to eat there.
I'd guess...the owner will have some problems going forward,,,,

Traveling to Kirkland next week. Doing the 5:2 diet. My full work day falls on one of my "fast" days (M/Th). It's a 600 calorie day vs 1640. Too bad. The per diem will get spent in Pocatello on Friday.

Say goodbye to tipping? No, say hello to mandatory 20% tipping.
To: steve86
If this is such a brilliant idea, why didnt they do it ten years sgo? And if $15 per hour is good then $29 per hour would be better.
