What I have done in the past, in restaurants that add a service charge to the bill, is cross it out and put in the amount I think the service qualifies.

I would reserve judgement until this is confirmed by others.

Hi All ,
who is writing and reading this topic.
I have just read this message by chance ,while I am surfing between different pages and luckly Calis beach forum at the end .
I thought ,Oh people write something new abaout Pines'.
Then ,can not believe the things written on .
We are charging 15%  extra ,like some other restaurants bla bla .It is such an idiot idea to write here that ,I am charging extra 15% .
Please ,don't tell me , somewhere ,sometime ,somebody have seen ...etc .
Gossips .
I am running thE Pines' and the ex.Bati Cafe for five years and never try to rip my customers off,with any reason ,specially ,We have all the prices written in Our Menu clearly .
Sorry ,My answer may be a bit sharp ,but be fair and come ask me ,if we are doing this or not .Or the best ;come to the Pines' and have a meal  ,see with Your own eyes .
As a last word ;Everybody always wellcome with good food and reasonable prices at the Pines' .

Thank you Murattuna for explaining your position and killing another rumour dead.

If any restaurant does try and pull this stunt, I hope that people would refuse to pay any "service surcharge".

I think the story started on Facebook. As I tell my kids, don't believe everything you read on the Internet. And don't believe anything you read on Facebook.

Free iPad anyone?

I always believe everything I read on the Internet, why wouldn't I? ;(;(

When will my free iPad arrive?  :)
