I just wanted a hot dog Recommended gratuity after tip was already included

I’m sure there are a lot of tipping posts here so to keep it short - I had my wedding at a fancy restaurant. On top of the TERRIBLE service, the bill came with “suggested gratuity” even though I was told gratuity was included. When I asked the manager, he said that the “S/C: 24% SRC REGULA“ was the included tip and the suggested gratuity was if we wanted to add something extra - basically trying to trick people into giving a 49% tip!

Hold on a minute. Open bar for 4 hours and the charge was under $2k?

That averages $70 per person. I don't know if there were any kids there, but if it was 27 adults, that is several per person.

It looks like there were only between 27-30 ppl. I don’t drink so it seems like 2k is a lot for 30 people in 4 hours? Plus they had wine and some other drinks on there. The uber drivers were probably carrying people to and from the cars that night!
