Beginning July 1, 2024, our Employee Equity Program will be cancelled and we will be returning to a gratuity system due to California’s new “Hidden Fees Statute” (SB 478), which makes it illegal for businesses to advertise or list a price for a good or service that does not include all required fees or charges other than certain government taxes and shipping costs.
The law simply requires that the price listed include all mandatory charges, and does not change what price a business can charge or what may be included in that cost.
As always we truly appreciate your ongoing support!
Sushi Spot restaurants are delighted to announce some exciting changes that will benefit both our valued customers and hardworking staff members.
We would like to inform you that we will no longer be accepting gratuities!
Instead, we will be implementing a new policy by applying an 18% employee equity charge to all dine-in orders and a 10% employee equity charge to all take-out orders.
This service charge not only ensures that our dedicated staff receive higher living wages but also promotes a fair and equitable distribution of income throughout our team.
It is important to note that 100% of these service charges will be directly allocated to our deserving employees at Sushi Spot.
We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude for your continued patronage and support. Your understanding and cooperation with these changes will enable us to better serve our staff and maintain the high-quality experience you expect from us.
If you have any further questions or would like more information, please do not hesitate to Contact Us.
Thank you again for your loyalty to Sushi Spot – we truly appreciate your ongoing support!
