I proceeded to tell him about being charged $.50 for ice in my gimlet at Redsauce. He said, "Our 'group' of CC restaurants charges $2.00 for "rocks" !!"
Of course, I said that that is BS, and he agreed.
Have any of you experienced these charges?? We feel that this needs to be stopped! Suggestions??

Yes, besides being annoying, the comments made me laugh.
It reminds me of Jack Nicholson in Five Easy Pieces about his sandwich in the diner routine.

Aside from that, I would refuse to pay for the lime juice and ice.
What are they going to do . . . throw you in jail?
If enough customers refuse to pay for those things, they'll get the message!
