I saw a discussion about tipping on FB not long ago, where many participants were servers. One waitress posted "If you don’t tip at least 20%, you’re going to get some nastiness in your food next time." That attitude seemed to meet with others’ approval, too. So, in your case, you really would have to never go back.

People who think that way don't remain servers long. Managers absolutely do not tolerate it. Feel free to vent on the Internet but if you actually touch the food you get blackballed. Shitty tippers get brought up to management. They can get banned from restaurants. It sucks to get stuffed on tips, and a lot of places pool tips to spread the impact so one person doesn't get screwed. There are also shitty managers and servers have to deal with it when management doesn't protect them. But if you mess with the food you are done at every restaurant in the area. It gets restaurants shut down and charged large fines. I'm sure whoever posted that meant it. But they are going to have a short and unhappy career.

If you include a 5% kitchen fee, and still expect a 20% tip, I ain't paying 25% ... The server will get 15%. I prob wont go back to that restaurant again if they charge ridiculous fees.
