We called the manager over and told him that we did not get the proper change back. He asked who our server was and we pointed him out. We also asked the manager if they give change back. He kinda fumbled with his words and eventually said well we usually round up the dollar amount in the customers favor because we don’t have a way to make change here due to the “change shortage”. Our servers bring their own money from home to make change with. We told him that in our case our server did not round up the dollar amount. He went to our server who gave him the dollar to give to us.
This struck me as odd because a week ago, I was having lunch at Chop House with a friend who I hadn’t seen in 20 years. When she received her check she also did not receive the correct change. She did not receive her change, nor did they round up her amount t that they returned to her. They just kept the change......no explanation given. I told my friend to call our server back over and question why she did not receive her proper change. She refused.
My question is....with the “change shortage 🤣🤣) are the servers just keeping the change?? For me, this is unacceptable and is no different than stealing it. It’s my money and I’ll decide if I want them to keep the change.
You may want to count your change before you leave a restaurant. They are pulling a fast one on us!

It's shocking that you don't carry a little rubber thing with coins for just these moments.
