An underrated thing if you're in business: make friends with your local restaurant of choice, bring them enough lunches/dinners to get their attention, then ask them for a phone number that automatically and always gets you a table.

I've always thought this could be sold as a service for places I've never been. Let me pay some big $$ fee in advance to be treated like a regular. I'll even provide names and photos of all attendees.

I've had situations where it would have been worth $500 extra for me to be able to walk into a restaurant I've never been to and hear "Hello Mr. Faulkner, Your usual table?" then get immediately seated

I would say that a consistent 25-35% tip on your bill is enough to get that sort of recognition and service - but remember to also be a nice person. You could tip me 100% and you wouldn't get anything if you were a jerk. Source: 10+ years bar/serving

When I was delivering pizzas, $5 was the tipping point where a good tip started to become a great tip. $10 you made my hour and $20 made my night. I would imagine these numbers are not far off % wise for servers as $5 is 25% of an average order.

Conversely, if I roll up to your $2million home with a $50 order and you tip $3 you’ve just told me what kind of person you are.
