Food & atmosphere was on level with any other restaurant at this price point. When it came time to pay the $140 tab, I realized I had only brought $150 with me & left the server a $10 tip. When our server saw the tip, she proceeded to chastise us, telling us she only makes $12 per hour & that she expected at least a $40 tip... & then stayed at our table & demanded we give her more money. I have never seen or heard of any establishment allowing their staff to do that & shame on them for paying their staff so little that servers have to resort to bullying their own customers to make ends meet. Nobody should support any Universel.View more
Went there during a visit to Montreal. The food was great & all. After I paid the bill & put the tip that I want, the server came to me & told me they have a 15% minimum tip policy, & I was like I didn't know. He just stood there waiting for the extra money to match the 15%, & he was like you still need to pay 6$ more. I see this as unbelievably rude! A tip is completely optional & I get to tip as much as I want/can. You don't get to stand there waiting for me to pay the rest in cash or whatever. Despite the good food, i am not coming back again because of this mandatory tipping policy.View more
I once received great service but the second & last time I went, our waiter who gave bad service & couldn't even keep up with the bare minimum completely changed attitude when I wanted to tip less than 15% saying that in restaurants you HAVE to tip at least 15%. He became rude & we didn't receive a proper goodbye. I tip 15% when you do a good job, but he didn't as I mentioned earlier. As a waiter, you shouldn't even discuss about tip with your customers as it is EXTRA & OPTIONAL.View more
We had a server today that demanded we tip. When he handed us the machine, he had already selected the tip option. When I unselected it & paid, he lectured me on how people HAVE to tip here. I have been here before, & our server was amazing. She was very attentive, & I did tip that time. This time, we saw our server twice, & when it was time to pay he told us that we have to get up & pay at the front when I've seen other people pay at their table & last time they bought the machine to us as well. This time around, I felt very disrespected. He tried to take advantage of us, knowing we were tourists. The food was okay. I'll never come back after this experience.View more
