I would be pretty pissed if they hit me for 20% to open a $150 bottle of wine. No, you don't deserve $30 to open a bottle.
These policies may need some tinkering.

They got this system from Alinea (literally, they are using Alinea's system).
Stupid idea IMO

Are ya'll not seeing this? If you order $60 of food, you would be forced to pay a 20% tip which is that $12. It's already included in this "pre-charge".

No. It's a service fee for making the reservation. It has nothing to do with tipping.

If that's the case, that is absolutely retarded.
Unless they become Alinea or something, they won't be able to get away with that.

I thought the same, but it looks like DrinkDrakDrunk is right based on the link in OP. The ticket essentially costs $24 + tax, of which $20 is credited to your final bill.

If it doesn't work, they'll scrap it. If it works, others will copy it. Let's check back in on this in 6 months.
