It was there. It was something like 15 or 20%. The part that frustrated me is on the bill it said it was NOT a gratuity and does not go to your waiter. I was shocked while reading that. Check out this sub Reddit ad other people complained about it to.

I haven’t been since, it really rubbed me the wrong way. The thing that sucks is I love Alamo but not double getting fleeced.

Also that kind of billing behind your back is shit and really dishonest. Also means you get the pleasure of disputing the charge, sending receipts and wasting your time.

as an employee of the alamo… the service charge goes to not only your waiter but the kitchen and bar crew that worked on your stuff. you can tip more if you want but it’s not an obligation.

I don’t have a pic of the receipt, kicking myself, but do have a pic of taking my family. This was June 23, 2021 and haven’t been back.

I don’t mind paying tips, but I want it to go to the people who make the experience, not a corporation not even in the state. So this is good to hear!
