Who gets what? does the server get any of that? At a restaurant I tip 18-20% everytime... here they charged 22% automatically.

Should I be adding on top of that? I have to say that I always do, but yesterday I read through it and struggled a bit.

thoughts?
I agree with the other posters. The 22% is the tip. Anything more than that is nice and generous, but certainly not expected nor compulsory. I have left it blank many times without a twinge of guilt.
