BBQ place I go to asks for tips at the checkout counter where you order food and pay. Then you get a number. They bring your food out and bus the table when you're done. But that's it. You get your own drink, condiments, cutlery.
I cannot for the life of me figure out why I would tip before any service is rendered and there's no way to tip after.
Ridiculous. I wouldn't feel comfortable eating there. I get it, it's supposed to guarantee a tip for your server, but that's breaking the tipping social contract. I don't know if your server is actually good at their job. Not only that, but it doesn't sound like you ever receive service in this place.
They aren't servers... It's just kitchen staff / cashiers that walk around every few minutes. At least they're making more than $3/hr. But yeah... I don't really call that service. The food got insanely expensive about a year ago too, so I stopped going there.
