You see ... I don't go to a good restaurant for pampering. I got for good food. I don't need that extra "fake" smile. Just suggest something good and bring it warm enough.
If you believe that 20% is a must then stick with it and pay more than I do. You'll feel better about yourself and I'll have more money left over. ......... no offense.
Yes, in the US, you should tip by percentage of the bill, even in an expensive restaurant.
One should plan for that as an expense when dining out.
