When you get particularly good service, take the minute and let a manager or supervisor know; it means more than you can imagine.
Restaurant servers are paid the lowest of the low. I always tip generously, not with the anticipation that a server will remember me next time, but rather because the extra dollar or two means so much more to that server than it does to me.

I'm just a wannabee...but here is my two cents...I have been to several of the restaurants in The Villages. I have some definite favorite restaurants in The Villages that I like to visit each time I return to TV. There has been only one restaurant in TV where the service was "subpar". My friends and I should have said something to the manager, but we just wanted to leave, so we didn't -- our bad. I would be willing to try this restaurant again in case it was an "off night," but since my visits in TV are short term, I would probably not return on my own unless my dining companion(s) really wanted to eat there.
And when the service is good, I am a generous tipper because there was a time right after I graduated from college when money was really tight, and an extra $10 each week meant a lot to me as tips do to restaurant servers. Off my soapbox now...
