"Marisco Central has little to no competition in Bronx Terminal Market. That said, it doesn't mean the restaurant rises to the occasion. The menu is too big, the offerings are inconstent in quality, it's a seated restaurant with fast food elements (salad dressing in cafeteria packets, silverwear in plastic bags), and tips are added to the check without the server telling you.Apparently, if you catch this and tell the server you want to provide the gratuity of your own volition, they will adjust the check accordingly. Really. That's a whole lotta work for people who are already pushed hard.If you have not noticed that 15% was added to your check, the slips where you sign your name include a line that says GRATUITY.This is misleading, disingenous, and nervy. The receipts DO inform in Spanish and English that 3.5% is added for all credit and debit charges. The same is not done regarding the 15% added to your check.So, as a public service announcement, and because I am none too please to have gratuitied $28 on a $106 check on 7/21/23, don't eat here. Or, get your food to go."
