Ridiculous that there's a service charge on something that itself is entirely service
Risk is opportunity

I never even thought of that. It’s just stupid, if I ate a full dinner at their restaurant it would’ve been cheaper, and would've had service, water etc

They have no onus to inform you in advance of cost?

I mean, I'd argue that afterward that it's an unreasonable charge. But the prudent thing to do is always ask.

Agreed, but if he asked the discussion is a non-starter. Hypothetically speaking, either he was told there was no charge and that's grounds for contesting any charge (even $1), or he was informed and used the service in which case he shouldn't have. If he was told the charge was a reasonable amount the bill should be adjusted to reflect what was quoted.

You sound like Ben Shapiro with all of these hypotheticals…

I edited my post to add "hypothetically speaking" because I didn't want OP to understand my post as suggesting one of these scenarios happened (e.g. He was told $90/incident and requested the service anyway). The bottom line is that if he's asking here and not specifying that they told him anything, then it's likely he didn't ask.

I didn’t ask if there was a fee, I didn’t expect any fee,
