A topic about Tip in restaurants seems to have caught fire. The flame is caused by the fact that the topic owner does not know that it is not customary in the U.S. to offer Tip when ordering TO GO, but it seems that people in the restaurant industry are taking advantage of this and are spreading false information in order to get Tip. It is normal in the U.S. not to pay Tip for TO GO, but it is also a reality that about 10% of Americans voluntarily pay a dollar or so.

If you look up Tip in TO GO on Google, you will see some Tip-hungry posts that seem to be from people in the restaurant industry. I will offer a common sense explanation that is not so. This information is mainly for tourists coming to the US from other English-speaking countries.

"For cafes or takeaway restaurants that do not offer table service, you are typically not obligated to leave a tip."
( For cafes or takeaway restaurants that do not offer table service, you are not typically obligated to leave a tip. )

"Buying food or drinks over the counter doesn't incur any gratuity but you can throw a dollar in the ever-present tip jar if you feel like it."
(Buying food or drinks over the counter doesn't incur any gratuity but you can throw a dollar in the ever-present tip jar if you care. )

"Tipping is not required for fast food restaurants, take-out orders, and coffee houses."
(Fast food restaurants, take-out orders and coffee houses do not require tipping. )

"A tip is for good service (someone bringing food drink to your table, keeping on top of your requests etc.) but with takeout You're buying a product.Its similar to going to McDonalds or Wendy's."

> The menu they serve in the restaurant

This is a properly printed menu.


> Many restaurants have raised their prices

Is the menu posted? If it is simply written on the Bill, you should not go to such a restaurant.

There is no need to give tips to such places.

Our neighborhood restaurant is also on a parade of price increases.
The menus were also carefully redesigned.

Mixed fried curry rice at a Japanese restaurant in Little Tokyo was $ 20. By the way, Chicken Breast Katsu Curry at another restaurant was probably $ 10 or so.
I can't pay TIP for this price TO go. $ 20 is the price including TIP. I can pay $ 20 for sushi, but curry $ 20 is expensive.

You can't use Little Tokyo, where a bowl of ramen costs $15, as an example
Little Tokyo and Beverly Hills don't do business with poor, stingy Japanese. That's what I mean
You shouldn't go there. Monterey Park and Gardena are the only places you should go.

I see that a bowl of Japanese ramen now costs over 1000 yen.
When I was a student, it was around 700 yen.
