Yeah but you can have it removed.

A gratuity is just that, as in not compulsory.

Most of the time people don't even notice it...I never had any parties ask to remove it and have never asked myself so I dunno. Surely though if you told a manager your party got poor service they would immediately remove it. At most places anyway.

The 15% grat. is no scam, it goes straight to the server. Unless you got shitty service and they refused to remove it, then its a scam.

Since they paid for the meal but not the tip that the owner would have just taken 15 % out and gave it to the server IF he really did offer to comp the meal.

Sounds like he may end up losing a lot more than 15% of their tab for prosecuting.

Were they black?

If the meal was comped then why would they have gotten a $73.00 bill?
The manager is telling the press this to save face.
