Please name the restaurant and location.
Agree, the precomputed is on the after tax abount so you are really giving 30%. The taste of the food was not the server's fault. But the wrong dishes were. When I get bad service, I either leave 0 or write note "bad service" Otherwise they just think you are a cheap tipper
