I happened to be in Sosua last week and
was waited on by "said" waiter.
When I received my bill of 330 pesos, I handed him the 500 peso note and then told him that he is gaining a reputation of not giving back change and self-tipping.
To this he told me that this only happened with 1 customer, in his memory, and that is a larger white-guy with tattoos. (If this is you, this is what he told me)
Apparently the customer had a bill had and handed him 500 pesos. Next, said customer left the establishment only to have the girl he was talking to attempt to claim the change. In an effort of safe-keeping the money he denied giving the change to the chica said customer was talking with, instead waiting for said customer to collect the change himself.
Once said customer came back to Rhumba the waiter then gave him his change.
Max (the waiter), said that a few people relayed this story to him and that he would like to meet with said customer and get the story straight.
FWIW, I have no dog in the fight. I just thought that his side needed to be told as he spent close to 5 minutes recounting the incident to me.
BTW- he gave me correct change
