Service charges; resort fees; "surcharge" add-ons: A new state law requiring price transparency is set to take effect in July. Until now, no one knew how it would apply to restaurants.
Need this nationwide. I hate having fees added on to the price of what I’m ordering.
Every hotel I’ve stayed in—regardless of state—has had this problem.
And if you read the first two paragraphs of the article, you’ll see the law actually applies to hotels as well; the article just chooses to focus on the restaurant part. So maybe your state-directed ire is misplaced.
Why is that a weird take? Seems to me the price should be the price across the board.
Yeah, that’s the reasonable take.
Badbytes was siggesting that because hotels do this, restaurants should be allowed to do this.
Nah, it pisses me off when I travel to California for vacation. I was being sarcastic. Sorry for being confusing. :)

I don’t know if you are for this change or against
I’m for transparency in pricing.
