Eat Deal

Marrying My Hubby Again 9/09! asked:


I am researching restaurants to have my “scaled down” wedding reception and have found that many of them charge “Service Fee’s” on top of the cost of food and drinks (which is pretty outrageous on it’s own) and NOT including gratuity.
So what is the deal with restaurant’s Service Fees?
I have found that the service fee applies to ALL events that require reserving the banquet rooms…
I didn’t mention wedding to a few places until after I asked about all the fees and gratuities…
I mean, what the heck is a service fee anyway, if not gratuity?!!!!
