Expected tax (GST) when eating out in India?

So I have eaten out several times in India and every time the amount of tax on the final bill seems to be different.

Sometimes it is 9.5% other times two lots of 2.5% (cGST & sGST?)

Also on a couple of occasions when I also had a beer the tax was 25% and 20% + 11% (on the VAT)

Let's say I order Rs1000 of food off the menu and a Rs100 beer.

What should the tax be on that restaurant bill?
