Automatic Gratuity

**Aloha, Friends!**


Welcome to Tiki Rock, where the drinks are strong, the service is smooth, and the vibes are always on island time. To help keep things moving after 10pm, when the crowd really picks up, we automatically add a 20% gratuity to all tabs. This allows our staff to focus on serving you faster, so your next round of Mai Tais arrives without a hitch.


For parties of six or more or an event, we apply the same 20% gratuity to ensure your group gets the best possible service. Now, you may be wondering, “Is this legal?” Absolutely. The IRS defines automatic gratuity as a service charge, and there’s no law against it. Plus, 20% is the industry standard—no secret code or tiki trickery there.


Can you refuse to pay the automatic gratuity? Nope. Just like your tab, it's a set charge, not an optional tip. Of course, if you feel like showing extra appreciation for stellar service, any additional tips are welcome, but the 20% is here to stay.


Thanks for helping us keep things running smoothly and ensuring your night at Tiki Rock is as enjoyable as possible!
