[quote=Anonymous]Was just looking at another thread where someone left a $16 tip on an $82 bill and someone else labeled this tip as "terrible." That's about 20% which I think of as standard? That is what we tend to leave on restaurant tabs, although for better-than-average service I do tend to give a bit more. Has the percentage that one should tip gone up and I don't know it? When I waited tables ages ago most left us 15% if we were lucky, but standards evolve of course. Nowadays I would only leave 15% if disappointed with the service. So what is a standard tip now? Is it 20% like I thought and someone was just being extra on that other thread calling that a terrible tip? Or should I be tipping more, and I didn't realize it? To be clear I'm talking about eating in a sit down restaurant... [/quote]
