Default Disappointment at Black Eyed Pea

i quit going to BEP a couple of years ago--service was ALWAYS terrible, no
matter which one i went into.

I went with my friends to eat at the local Black Eyed Pea restaurant and
asked to substitute my french fries for a salad. "That'll be 99 cents
extra." the server said. "Even if I am not getting the fries--just
switching them for the small salad?" I asked. "Any change at all is 99
cents extra." he replied.

What a rip off!

Order what you want! THEN..at tipping time
Hand the server her/his bucks and then quickly take one
back and say "Im taking my 99 cents back , next time
I come here maybe your company will change that rule!"
Smile and walk away!

Kind of harsh to punish the waiter for company policy isn't it? Waiters
usually don't have that much clout. I would complain to the manager or
write corporate headquarters and let it be known that I wouldn't spend
money there until the policy changed, and say I'll tell my friends to do
the same.

You arent REALLY taking a dollar from them they just think you are!
If you are gonna give em $15.00 (I tip high) just add a 1 dollar bill to
the stack
and they'll think you are taking a dollar but you had no intentions of
giving it
to them in the first place! Its hard to get good waitstaff and they'll take
suggestions.
