| Description: | Storied Central Park restaurant Tavern on the Green stiffed staffers on both their tips and paychecks, a new lawsuit alleges. The famed eatery "engaged in a policy and practice of unlawfully retaining employees' gratuities" for special events such as weddings, according to the suit. Tavern on the Green would charge customers a 7 percent fee for these "numerous catered and banquet events" — which customers mistakenly believed covered a gratuity — and pocketed it, the civil suit charges. The restaurant, where dinners range from a $22 vegetable plate to a $54 sirloin, also paid employees $7.50-per-hour rather than the $11-per-hour minimum wage required by law. The suit, filed by former employee Dipon Padder, seeks class action status. Tavern on the Green did not immediately respond to a request for comment. |
