I’d go for lunch on a fairly regular basis and my meal would be $20 pre tax and tip. 15% tip got me up to $23 before tax. Now that same meal is going to cost me $21.50 before tax and tip, but the portion size is the same and so is the service, that’s now a 7% tip if I still pay $23. If I tip the 15%, I’m now paying $24.73 with no increase in benefit to me.
The question is, how many people are willing to pay more for the same product without seeing an increase in either portion or quality?

Of course.
Servers cant expect the same percentage or level of tips on a more expensive meal while earning a substantially higher base-pay.
Thats just not going to work.
