Here is mine.
Over the top,remember my preferences,fights for me in the kitchen-25% max
Very good,makes me want to come back and have them wait on me again.18-20%
Good 16%-18%
Average 15% always.
Rude/Poor/Dumb 0% and the loss of my buisness.
All of this is on the pre tax total
This pretty much represents my viewpoints also.
As far as tipping on the tax: why would you reward service based upon a tax added by the state of______(fill in the blank)? How did the state of _____make your service/food/entertainment any better? If you tip the waiter on the tax you're simply rewarding him/her for being a tax collector. That's just stupid.
