My wife & I & three teenagers were mildly pleased with the food at Toucheh. Although the service was good (two scaloppini dishes & three penne dishes), our concern with the evening occurred after we had completed our meals. My Visa card, which I have used successfully without exception in Canada & many other different countries, was not accepted because the waiter stated that the card machine only worked with a PIN number, which my Visa card did not require. After I had to leave my family in the restaurant & withdraw money from an ATM a block away, & gave the waiter cash at his register for the bill that required about $50 in change, he did not give me change but insisted that I tell him what tip I would give him. I said a $15 tip, which was about 10% because of my embarrassing walk to the ATM & what I thought was less than exceptional food taking into account the price. He then gave me $15 in change! After I protested, he returned $25 saying that I should pay 15% - I "agreed" but with the intention of not returning again. In the circumstances I think that I should have had the option to decide on the tip myself.
