You can tip more than 15% if you wish, but is properly figured on the amount before tax.

If you are comped a meal or use a coupon, figure the tip on the amount before the comp or coupon, that is, as if there was no comp or coupon.

Once a restaurant automatically added in a tip figuring it on the amoutn after tax. I complained and insisted that they correct it even though I would have voluntarily left a larger tip if they did not add it in automatically. In retrospect I think I overreacted.
