We went to CA and saw a surcharge but it must have been more than 1% because it was $2-3. When I asked about it, was told it was for Health Care costs for the wait staff. So we just included that as part of the tip and gave that much less in the tip. Since we were ordering for 4 and usually give 20%...I'm sure it wasn't much noticed. But again, for me it was the whole idea. Nobody gives me a surcharge for my rising healthcare costs. Why do I have to pay for others? I'm sure this 1% will rise...this is only the beginning.
