This would get promo'd or written off unless the bar/restaurant are run by complete dicks. Given that it was a decent restaurant I'd say the chances the waiter/waitress had to foot the bill are close to zero. That said the waiter/waitress obviously loses all tips from the table since the guy didn't pay. And the restaurant loses money on the bill.

Restaurants cannot make an employee pay for someone that dines and dashes, nor can they make you contribute to a dine and dash fund. They also cannot make the bartender pay cash shortages from the till, if more than one person has access to it. They also can't make you be at work 15 minutes before your shift, if they aren't going to pay you.
