Could someone please tell me where this "great service" that is so constantly referred to here on FT can be obtained anywhere in the USA nowadays, just so I can get the chance, when visiting, to experience it for once.
This thread posed a legitimate question about the practice of the establishment adding a gratuity as part of the check rather than the patron calculating and doing so himself.
As to your unrelated question, there are many great sources for restaurant reviews, online, offline, TA's, others you know who travel and the like.
