America's Top Restaurant Winner Slaps Diners With Mandatory Tip And Woke Lecture On Receipt
The top-rated restaurant in America (at least according to Food & Wine's 2025 pick) is now buried under a pile of one-star reviews after deciding to lecture diners on receipts about the supposedly "racist" history of tipping, while auto-adding a non-negotiable 20% service charge to every bill, SFGate reports.
