> That's fascinating to me. What kind of restaurant is this, and how does the restaurant approach someone like this? The kinds of places I eat, I'm out of there before anybody even knows what I've tipped, but that sounds like it's something more upscale than the places I go to. I would hope the restaurant wouldn't do this if the customer has a legitimate complaint, though.

I think that if a customer repeatedly has a legitimate complaint about the service, they probably wouldn't need to be asked not to come back.

But, yeah, I don't think I've ever eaten in a restaurant (even some very upscale ones) where they would even have a method of tracking how much people have tipped, especially as tips are more often than not cash, as you're on your way out of the door.
