Personally…i tip no more than 5%. Why tip to just bring a plate over.

Time to stop this tipping nonsence. Wait…next year it will be suggested u tip 25%.
Because most restaurants have to pay taxes on sales. Back in my days 35 years ago, we had to pay taxes on 10% of our sales. So if you tip 5% you are hurting the server.
If you or a regular anywhere I sure the servers know you and give you what you pay for.
Here’s what tipping right gets you. I walk in to my favorite place before I even sit the servers have my club soda in hand, they care how am doing, and the smiles never stop. They are very kind to me and my family because they know I appreciate that they are taking care of us. Tipping right is a big win win for everyone.
