The question came up on another online forum I frequent, and I was always under the impression that it was not, despite the fact that it seems to be a fairly common practice in some places. I know that the restaurants I used to work at always took the hit instead of the server. If the server is held responsible, what exactly are they supposed to do to collect the bill? Run down the former guests mid-exit and physically restrain them until they pay up? It seems like that would expose the restaurant to a lot of liability.
