In higher priced establishments I expect a higher level of service and the service level that justified a 20% tip in my local taco joint might not hack it at some upscale eatery.

Perhaps he was confused about the bill or having a really bad day or couldn't believe that you were using cash instead of a miles earning CC. I guess we'll never know but, in any case, his attitude could have used some adjustment. Had I seen such a change in disposition I might have asked if there was some problem and had his reaction to the tip amount been a bit more overt and/or the least bit derisive I would have spoken to the manager.
