You always have to be mature enough to split tasty food from incompetent oe questionably rude staff and incompetant or greedy managers. Venezualan food if flippaing AMAZAAANG. Just because one or two Venezualan restaurant acts the way this one does towards me doesnt mean I wont say that their food aint lit. Cause usually their food is lit. Just please let everyone know what theyre being charged for and it will be no trouble. This applies to every type of restaurant please.
It's every where now, all the carry out places & if your out & treating yourself ,, then it works , the person is standing there with your food in hand & asking you to pay I do , if you know that their salary is from the tips, I do a little something , Cast your bread upon the waters It will return to you 😊
But the difference is that you're going to their country to visit and to learn their culture. What culture are they learning in the U.S.? Because the last time that I've checked Spanish language in the U.S. is almost equal to English that people haven't learned basics yet. These Venezuelans located in Duluth, GA. isn't in a area where there isn't a population of Venezuelans.
@@spankbuda3769there is no difference. Everyone knows the most spoken language in the US is English. A majority of businesses speak and write their stuff in English.

A lot of restaurants are moving towards automatic gratuity or “service charges”. I’ve heard multiple explanations; helps pay employees and helps keep menu prices low. It’s one thing when the service and food is good but to be forced to pay even when everything is poor it is highly frustrating.
First of all they're the ones that's suppose to pay their employees not us as for keeping the menu prices down it's a crock of crap the owners and corporations are keeping that money for themselves. If their is already gratuity on the receipt why do we need to tip.
I think all restaurants that charge up front gratuity should be required to post this at their register or posted on the door or window of their establishment before you walk in. Bad enough the meal tax in many states is outrageously high without adding additional fees.
I ordered food from Grubhub with specific instructions for the driver to deliver my order to the back of the building. When he arrived security called me and said my order was at the front of the building and I told him to direct the driver to the back of the building. The driver didn't speak a lick of English and I ended up walking to the front of the building which is a large complex to get my order. I agree that employers in the U.S. should require a basic understanding of the English language as a condition for employment. I don't understand why some employers require U.S. citizens to speak Spanish but don't require English.
@@abennett3118 I get called bigoted when I say this. Americans get called all kinds of names if we don't speak a local language, but people wanna come here and run businesses/work for the public and speak no English.
Lol, she didn't want to deal with it. It may be that she really didn't know and was frustrated, but I agree with you. Someone working there, serving the public, should speak English.
Service charges are usually part of the debt/credit card systems. A lot of companies that make the card machines for businesses have started to implement the “service charge” system to have lower rates for the business. My retail job has this system. And it’s not great, wish there were better options for smaller businesses. But I do agree someone there should know enough to explain this!
@@DrDictator the rates of the card machines, register system, and the overall service is lower. Our old system we would have to pay an 8% per transaction to the service provider. But the new system, at our store specifically, the customer pays a 3% service charge. But I’ve seen locations have as high as 10% for the customer, which is insane.
@@aubrey0ninja So the card machines, those aren't just a one time purchase, or even just like a subscription service that a business would pay per month or per year for all the transactions they're sending in to be taken care of and charge customer's accounts? The card machines and the businesses behind the card machines charge a per transaction fee that needs to also be taken into account by the restaurant? Admittedly, I don't really know anything about the industry behind the card machines in the first place, but that sounds so dumb and like that industry is making a lot more money than it probably needs to for how simple of a process they're providing to these restaurants. I imagine the data being used, the processing power, the system automatically calculating and then charging customer's bank accounts, etc. wouldn't cost that much for them to be needing an entire per transaction fee. Like that lets me be a little more sympathetic to the restaurant owners and workers now, considering it sounds like they're being almost scammed themselves in a sense.
As someone who grew up in Georgia and currently lives here, I've personally never seen a service charge for a to-go order that I picked up myself. I have however unfortunately experienced my fair share of bad customer service in this state more than any other I've been to.
A lot of good food to try if you're staying out in that Duluth and Lawrenceville areas. They also have Korean style bakeries if you have a sweet tooth. Mozarts Bakery, Hansel and Gretel Bakery and Sweet Hut are popular. They won't pull that service charge nonsense.
😀👌🏾💪🏾 appreciate what you do My Brother. I’ve been following you for a while and I have learned more about different types of food since I’ve been following you appreciate you, my brother keep it up.
I legit was going to take my family of 7 to eat here as we try a different place every weekend here in Georgia. Not now and I ❤Venezuelan food. I’m good. I see they are getting like LAs Vegas
That tipping crap is getting out of control. I learned a lesson at a restaurant in College Park, Maryland. I didn't read my receipt they had added a tip and my friend had tipped the waiter in cash. He was double-tipped. My fault but never again.
That's the house trying to make extra money off the compassion customers have for their servers. There is a high probability that the workers see non of that forced gratuity. And the house probably takes a cut of the actual tips.
Here in Oregon they are asking for tips in the drive through. Burgerville a large chain hands you the pin pad asking you how much you want to tip. Even my local farmers market some vendors are asking for a tip and you have to click the “I don’t want to tip” or the “no tip” buttons. It was bad enough when it was to go orders but during the pandemic everyone from the SELF SERVE frozen yogurt place to the state run liquor stores started asking for tips on credit/debit purchases.
Def feel you on the forced tips and "being in America doing business with Americans". cant stand the disrespect we get from people that we fought for them to come into this country legally!
As a person who worked in the restaurant business.. I think that it’s very possible that she added the automatic gratuity charge because you’re black. Simple and plain. In my experience they usually automatically prejudge every black person that walks through the door. Already assuming that you won’t tip. You did the right thing.
So, Im originally from The Bahamas(born and raised) and my family and I emigrated to Ohio in 99. I moved to florida in 2022 with my moving company and tbh when It came to prejudice I was more concerned about whites than Hispanics.... MAN WAS I wrong. I don't know why but Hispanics(esp in Florida... can't and won't speak for other states) are prejudice towards blacks here.... especially in HEAVY Hispanic cities a la Miami and Orlando. The service charge they run that game HEAVY in Miami and Orlando and some of it has to do with tourists not knowing any better and the stereotype that Black people DON'T tip. No disrespect to Hispanics who are genuine working hard loving everyone.... moving back to ohio next month... they(amongst other things) i won't be missing about Florida
I am not from GA but I've been living there a year now. And it is very true about auto 20% gratuity or service charge. I agree it's messed up especially when you receive poor service.
Lol I know I got mad at first too. It is a forced tip though and the servers only get a portion of it not the whole thing so you have to tip on top of that for them to get a tip.
I’d totally agree with you because I am pretty sure if you travel to another country you have to know how to get around so you are absolutely right that should be something the restaurants should consider and then the attitude was not necessary because you was being polite. God bless you and please continue to do what you doing.
I’m home bound and wish I could be who I was three years ago. Cook my own food for myself and others but I can’t anymore due to me having 10 strokes. But I’m ordering daily based on what restaurants ur visiting and so far you have been on point. Sucks being home bound so thank you. The tip situation, ur right. They hope u don’t notice. I’m a big tipper as well but forcing it on us make you not wanna tip at all. I order in so I don’t need a force tip, I’m thankful someone can get my food or groceries for me since I can’t but don’t try me
I have a few friends are Venezuelan and we recipe swap. They love my pasta and I love their twist on pupsas so our pot luck dinners are freaking amazing. If you haven’t had Venezuelan please do. She doesn’t call them pupusa she calls them arepas but very similar. I’m from Charleston, SC and she has completely changed my southern coleslaw recipe 😋
'Pupusa' is the NATIONAL food of 'El Salvador'. They're the equivalent of 'tacos' to Mexico and Mexicans. 'Arepa' is the national food of both Venezuela 'and' Colombia. 2 different things (pupusa and arepa). But rather 'similar'.. sure...
A LOT of restaurants are adding service charges on to go orders here in GA. Even nail shops. So, at the nail shops I just send money to their CashApp to avoid the fee
This is why I ALWAYS check every line item on my receipt. Sometimes the extra fees are described as something other than a tip and they assume no one will question a "service fee".
First of all I COULD tell she DID speak English. She pretended hoping you would go away. I think she added it in when she saw that you were black. There’s this misconception out there that we as black people don’t tip or we are lousy tippers. I wouldn’t be surprised if this is the case!! Just my thought. 🤷🏾♂️
You’re spot on… and you shouldn’t tip unless it’s exceptional service and food quality. Tipping for mid-food and/or poor service is like paying to be punked by strangers.
In regards to the service fee, I've noticed that it's becoming more common for restaurants to charge a fee for to go orders. That's likely what the charge was, not a tip but a to go upcharge. No idea why the upcharge exists, but I'm seeing it more and more these days.
Tips was based on the service that was provided to a customer. It shouldn't be forced on anyone. The food industries needs to change. Stop basing your staff to a below wage job to have them living off of tips. It's ppl that is rich and are tight wads. Or arrogant to tip. I tip based on the service provided. A big tip depends on the service. I tip door dash drivers as well etc etc. I don't mind tipping ppl. I'm glad to help. Dont force ppl. If restaurants paid their staff decent wages we wouldn't have to worry about any of this shyt. Change the wage fix the issue. I hold the industry accountable. Times have changed those ways don't apply.
The service charge is in Minnesota too. But it’s so they split some of it with the cooks and other workers so the server doesn’t get all the tips. I’m not sure if they do it on to go orders here though…
I believe it's pronounced Toe-Doe. As far as the not speaking English part, come to South Florida. That scam happens 24/7 they always say that when they don't want to deal with you
Yeah it’s not just them. Saw a video where a guy ate inside the restaurant and they forced him to tip a certain percentage. Couldn’t even choose other. And then the amount they were telling him, didn’t equate to the percentage of the bill.
If you’re in the Duluth area PLEASE go to NY prime chicken. Best fried chicken cooked by Arab people. It’s in lawrenceville near Duluth so not IN the area but about 15 minutes away. They make it fresh and it is THE BEST you will ever have
Also if you'd like some good African food try Ike's Cafe and Grill a little southwest from that area. The only other Ike's is in Ghana. They have some good food that you may enjoy in this cooler weather.
Never heard of a fee for to go order? That’s wild! I agree with the language. I always try to learn as much as i can before visiting other countries. Now, her tude might have been due to being recorded if you had your phone/camera out. Not that anyone needs an excuse to be rude these days. Sadly, I’m more shocked when people are patient, kind and happy. 🤦🏾♀️🫠🤷🏾♀️The food looked legit though. If you’re looking for more spots and you’re in Buckhead or Decatur, one of my Favs is Iberian Pig 🤌🏾

Stop basing your staff to a below wage job to have them living off of tips. It's ppl that is rich and are tight wads. Or arrogant to tip. I tip based on the service provided. A big tip depends on the service. I tip door dash drivers as well etc etc. I don't mind tipping ppl. I'm glad to help. Dont force ppl. If restaurants paid their staff decent wages we wouldn't have to worry about any of this shyt. Change the wage fix the issue. I hold the industry accountable. Times have changed those ways don't apply.
The service charge is in Minnesota too. But it’s so they split some of it with the cooks and other workers so the server doesn’t get all the tips. I’m not sure if they do it on to go orders here though…
Cheeseburger? Hell nah, that's a high cholesterol and a heart attack😆😂 shit looks fire though
That burger looked something special😮
I realize how greedy I am whenever chime says this can feed x amount of people im like this can’t only feed me
I believe it's pronounced Toe-Doe.
As far as the not speaking English part, come to South Florida. That scam happens 24/7 they always say that when they don't want to deal with you
Yeah it’s not just them. Saw a video where a guy ate inside the restaurant and they forced him to tip a certain percentage. Couldn’t even choose other. And then the amount they were telling him, didn’t equate to the percentage of the bill.
It's a major issue in GA!! It's everywhere
Welcome 2 Atlanta!!!
That food looks amazing
That looks delicious 😋🤤
If you’re in the Duluth area PLEASE go to NY prime chicken. Best fried chicken cooked by Arab people. It’s in lawrenceville near Duluth so not IN the area but about 15 minutes away. They make it fresh and it is THE BEST you will ever have
We live close to Duluth. Will def be trying this place out this wknd. Hopefully we can get that service charge removed 😅
I agree regarding the tip. I tip well but don’t force me!
Check out Mediterranean bakery in Chamblee Tucker 😊
Yeah i hate that too bro, i once went to a deli that refused to give me my togo order until I tipped...first and last time I went to that joint
I'd left that food right there with them holding it. They'd lost more money if you hadn't bought the food
Facts on the tip thing, i hate when u go PICK UP an order they have the tip option on the screen when u pay. F o h 😂
Also if you'd like some good African food try Ike's Cafe and Grill a little southwest from that area. The only other Ike's is in Ghana. They have some good food that you may enjoy in this cooler weather.
You are so correct
Check out Cafe Bourbon Street in Marietta Ga. Definitely wholesome people with excellent food.
Never heard of a fee for to go order? That’s wild! I agree with the language. I always try to learn as much as i can before visiting other countries. Now, her tude might have been due to being recorded if you had your phone/camera out. Not that anyone needs an excuse to be rude these days. Sadly, I’m more shocked when people are patient, kind and happy. 🤦🏾♀️🫠🤷🏾♀️The food looked legit though. If you’re looking for more spots and you’re in Buckhead or Decatur, one of my Favs is Iberian Pig 🤌🏾
Your reviews are interesting😋😋😋 🤔. I must say I pray on your safety🛐🕊🫒
