> The restaurant should pay more than minimum wage.

Perhaps, but it sounds more like that your minimum wage isn't set to be a living wage[1].

That's the important part - minimum wages should be set so that someone who is working full time (~40 hours/week) should be getting enough income so that they can afford a modest standard of living for themselves and a family too.
