Be careful.  Always read the bill first.

近兩個月以來，我都是在溫東的Hastins/Kingsway/Main街等路段的中餐館、面館與卡拉OK的朋友用餐后，由於AA分賬，看賬單時發現除了HST，還有Tips，還好，Tips部分，都是按10%餐費算的，所以也沒有什麼可說的。
若沒仔細看賬單，付費之后額外再付小費，就會成了個大爺了。

I had to take my iphone out and calculate to see if they did include the tips.  I did not want to leave 0 as tips.  The fine print is very small.

If you paid by credit card, there is a line for gratitude too.  If I did not read the fine print from the menu, I would have put another 10% to the bill.

No lawyer yet, but like I said before, it's not so much a 'legal or not' issue.. but rather a civil wrong. In this case, the conduct would be the breaching of contract between the restaurant and the diner. It is entirely up the victim (server or diner) to assemble the evidence and formulate the the legal arguments which will be necessary in order to support their claims, and to decide whether to bring proceedings in the courts.

So if the restaurant stated the gratuity as a 'service charge,' and it was presented clearly on the menu or by your server, then you should have a good reason to challenge the charge/contract before you pay less. Note that many restaurant bills had changed "gratuity charges" to "service charges" because gratuities are legally stated as "optional" while service charges are not if written clearly before you order.

any lawyers here/?
