Frequently asked questions
How much should I tip?
In the United States, 15–20% of the pre-tax bill is standard for restaurant table service. Other countries vary widely — in Japan tipping can be considered rude, while in much of Europe a service charge is already included.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Traditionally tips are calculated on the pre-tax amount, but many people simply tip on the total shown on the bill. Either is acceptable.
Does the split include rounding?
The per-person amount is rounded to two decimals for display. In practice, people often round up their own share to keep things simple.
