No. This would apply if you actually paid less than it actually is
It might be false advertisement though
Exactly. It's false advertisement, and wouldn't be acceptable in most countries that care about such things.

If it's demanded by the establishment, it's a service charge, not a tip. They are legally distinct things.
A tip may be expected by the server as part of social custom, but it is not demanded by the establishment from which you purchase.
The tipping is dumping.
The seller(who is the employer) offered a product with the price they choose. That price should reflect all the necessary costs of the product, including the salary to the workers.
By demanding the tipping, they make the price cheaper than it actually is.
That is dumping.
