Description
The cost to eat out is going up as more restaurants are adding fees to your final tab.
It's a new type of sticker shock that has become familiar to diners in recent years.
Sometimes, restaurants will include a description of the fee on a menu or somewhere else on the premises. But other times customers may be surprised with a fee for the first time when they get the check at the end of their meal, and it may be unclear what the fee is for. These unexpected charges are often called “junk fees.”
Some people have suggested that surprise fees are illegal since the customer is being charged a price higher than what they were aware of when they ordered.
