High End Restaurants are Adding a Service Charge Beyond the Gratuity

Checked my credit card charges this a.m. and there is now only the second corrected charge showing as pending, so, hopefully, there won't be any more issues.

There were a couple of service issues, in addition to above, which I'll detail in the food write up but I did go ahead and tip almost 25% since we had 1 dish prepared tableside and it's still so new so hopefully are working out kinks. So, they won't get a totally bad review, though I will note the service charge issue, but the food was okay, nothing special though, and not worth the prices charged. They are aspiring to be fine dining, but are more like semi upscale casual in quality.

There's another fine dining Italian restaurant a few blocks north that actually is. Think I'll quit experimenting and stick with tried and true
