Oh, dear! You were right. Just took a closer look at the check. THEY ADDED THE GRATUITY. Subtotal 560, Tax 60, 18% Gratuity 101... but on the CC receipt the option to add a tip. Which of course is the only place I looked at not the detailed check. Now I feel very stupid... well... more than one lesson learned and a happy waitress for that evening
